V-‐Machine Operating Manual
12.7.3
Channel Mute
The channel Mute icon places the corresponding mixer channel into Mute mode. The Mute
mode allows you to mute to one channel at a time while you listen and adjust others.
Click your mouse on a channels Mute icon to toggle the corresponding channels Mute function
ON and OFF.
12.7.4
Channel Solo
The channel Solo icon places the corresponding mixer channel into Solo mode. The Solo mode
allows you to single out a sound to make refine adjustments.
Click your mouse on a channels Solo icon to toggle the corresponding channels Solo function
ON and OFF.
12.7.5
FX Sends 1 & 2
The FX send 1 & 2 sends audio signal to the FX1 & FX2 effects bus Plugin Slots that are
subsequently returned to the mix via the FX1 & FX2 return channels. Each FX bus features
three (3) plugin slots just like the other mixer channels.
Click and hold your mouse button down over the FX send icons and move up or down to adjust
the Send value up and down. Release your mouse button when you have made the desired
adjustment.
FX sends can be configured as either Pre or Post fader. By default each send is configured as
Post fader. Right clicking your mouse on the corresponding Send icon will display a Pre and
Post menu option. Select either Pre or Post as desired.
A pre-‐fader output is independent of the channel fader. The FX send output signal stays the
same level no matter how the channel gain fader is set.
A post-‐fader output depends on the current channel gain fader level. Turning the fader down
results in a reduced FX send output signal.
Quick Tip
: This is great way to share VST plugin effects between channels and thus minimize
the impact on the CPU. For example this would be beneficial if you needed a similar reverb
effect across a multi channel Preset sound creation.
12.7.6
L&R audio input selector
The Left and Right audio input selectors can be enabled to feed external audio source material
into mixer channels for further processing.
Click your mouse on a channels L or R audio input selector icon to toggle the corresponding
channels Left or Right audio input ON or OFF.
In the case of the VFX Application the corresponding channel will receive audio signal material
from the inputs of the audio interface specified in your preference settings.
After you have saved and synchronized your Preset to the V-‐Machine audio signal material will
be received at the V-‐Machine’s rear panel audio input.
Quick Tips
: Disable the audio inputs for all channels unless required.
