Aux and FX Bus Channel Sends
In addition to setting the dynamics for each channel and bus and
metering each channel and output, the Fat Channel also allows you to
create aux mixes and quickly view the send level for each channel.
The Mix and Mix|Pan buttons for each aux and FX bus are used for
just this purpose. Each of these buttons allows you to view and
set the send level for each channel to that aux or FX mix.
Mix Button. Enables Aux Bus Mixing in the Fat Channel.
When the Mix button is pressed once, the 32/24/16 encoder knobs in the Fat
Channel become the aux-send level controls for each of their respective input
channels. The meters will display the send amount for each of the input channels.
Aux Flip Mode. Enables Aux Send Level Control for Main Digital return,
Tape In, Aux Ins A and B, FXA, FXB, FXC, FXD, and Talkback.
Pressing the Mix button a second time will switch the first nine meters and encoders
to become the aux-send level controls for the Main Digital Return, Analog Tape In,
Aux Input A, Aux Input B, the output of FXA, FXB, FXC, FXD, and the Talkback mic.
While in this mode, the Mix button will remain illuminated, and an LED
at the top and bottom of the remaining meters will also illuminate.
Press the Mix button a third time to disengage Aux Mix mode.
