Once the LCR surround system has been set up, it will be useful to
save as an LCR surround template for future use.
Panning
The audio can be sent to the 8Ts Pre- or Post- the Pan control:
•
If the Pan LED is lit red (LCR), then the audio will be
Post
-pan
and will rely on the pan control to determine how much of the
signal is sent to those routed destinations.
If a signal is sent to 8Ts 1, 2 and 7 and the route is
Post
-pan
(with Pan in the centre position), the audio will be sent to 8T7
(Centre), with a 9dB drop in signal sent equally to 8Ts 1 and 2.
This 9dB divergence between Centre and Left & Right is fixed.
If the Pan LED is lit yellow (stereo), then audio will be
Post-
pan
and will rely on the pan control to determine how much of the
signal is sent to those routed destinations.
If a signal is sent to 8Ts 1 and 2 and the route is
Post
-pan (with
Pan in the centre position), the audio will be sent to 8T1 (Left) and
8T2 (right) equally, with a -4dB drop in signal sent equally to 8Ts
1 and 2.
•
If the Pan LED is not lit, then the route will be sent
Pre
-pan and
therefore rely solely on the routing as a mono source.
If a signal is sent to 8Ts 1, 2 and 7 pre-pan, the audio will be sent
equally to 8Ts 1, 2 and 7.
•
If an independent level into the Centre or Sub is needed, then as
discussed the auxes in conjunction with either the
>8T7
/
>8T8
buttons
can be used. These buttons divert the Aux feed away from the Aux
busses and into either the
8T7
or
8T8
path. This allows for subs and
solid centres to be created with no panning involved.
