3. DCA / VCA FADERS
To have DCA (or analog VCA) style Fader Masters, first check the
INPUT FADER MASTER box near the top of the FADER GROUP
display page. Then view the REMOTE menu, and select USER
ASSIGNABLE LAYER as the TARGET. After that, all the GROUP
MASTER FADERS can be selected to appear on the REMOTE FADER
LAYER, along with any other channels chosen by the user.
4. MUTE MASTER Switches
USER DEFINED KEY bank G, by default, consists of the twelve MUTE
GROUP MASTER switches. But first the INPUT MUTE MASTER and
OUTPUT MUTE MASTER boxes must be checked in the MUTE
GROUP display menu. Then the Mute Groups will behave in a similar
way to those on a typical analog console: each channel’s ON switch is
independent, while the Mute Master switches will mute all the assigned
channels, causing their ON switches will flash.
5. SCENE MEMORY Auto Update
In the PREFERENCES1 page of the SETUP menu, the Scene MEM
Auto Update option can be found. When this is switched on, the last
mixing settings are memorised just before the next Scene is recalled.
Then when a previous Scene is recalled, its last settings are recalled
first. Press RECALL again to access the original scene settings. So
two memories for each scene are kept: the original settings, and the
last settings.
6. Return to Current Scene
When scrolling through the SCENE MEMORY list, it is easy to forget
which is the current Scene. To force the display to show the current
Scene number again, press both SCENE UP and DOWN keys
simultaneously.
7. Use the same Studio Monitors for Surround and Stereo Monitoring
To allow this, switch on the MONITOR L/R TO C-R option in the
SURROUND page of the MONITOR menu. Then the Front Left and
Right speakers can be connected to the Control Room outputs while
the other Surround speakers can be connected to spare OMNI or
SLOT Outputs. When mixing in Surround, turn the CONTROL ROOM
LEVEL pot up to maximum, and use the SURROUND MONITOR
LEVEL pot as the listening level. Make sure STEREO is not selected
as the CONTROL ROOM SOURCE at this time (or switch the Stereo
Master channel off). When returning to Stereo mixing, remember to
turn the CONTROL ROOM LEVEL down again.
