Surround Panel (SUR-D12)
Controls and Functions
The D-12 digital audio control surface is equipped with one SURROUND
Panel. This panel houses 5.1 CHANNEL TRIMS, 5.1 SURROUND, and
MODE sections.
5.1 Channel Trims
This section includes independent rotary level
controls and Solo switches for each component of
a 5.1 signal (i.e. LT FRONT, CENTER, RT
FRONT, LT REAR, RT REAR, and LFE). The
5.1 trims work with surround input faders, the 5.1
master, and the CR1 and CR2 monitors. Trims are
accessed by pressing the input channel or output
mix SET button.
Each rotary trim control allows for +12/-60dB
boost/cut. Dobbying the trim knob will reset it to
0dB. SOLO switches allow for monitoring of each
component.
The 5.1 trims are gain offsets independently
applied to the current gain setting of each compo-
nent the 5.1 signal. Conversely, the input fader’s
GAIN control will affect all 6 channels equally.
LT FRONT - rotary knob; centered at 0db,
pr/- 12dB boost/cut.
CENTER - rotary knob; centered at 0db, pro-
vides +/- 12dB boost/cut.
RT FRONT - rotary knob; centered at 0db,
pr/- 12dB boost/cut.
LFE – rotary knob; centered at 0db, provides
+/- 12dB boost/cut.
LT REAR - rotary knob; centered at 0db,
pr/- 12dB boost/cut.
RT REAR - rotary knob; centered at 0db,
pr/- 12dB boost/cut.
SOLO Switches – puts the selected component
signal in Solo monitor. This SOLO section as-
sumes the CR is set to SURROUND mode and works a bit differently from
other SOLO switches on the surface.
