15. Use the panel [SEL] LED to indicate the ESAM fader on/off
status
When you press the [AUTO] key, the [SEL] LED of each channel will indicate the
current status of the ESAM faders.
Press the [AUTO] key to make it light, so that the [SEL] key of each channel
indicates the ESAM FADER on/off status. If a channel’s [SEL] LED is lit, its level
is being controlled from the video editor. If you press the [SEL] key to make this
LED go dark, the level of that channel will no longer be controlled from the video
editor. This means that if you want to control a level manually, make the [SEL]
LED go dark for the desired channel.
If the ESAM FADER is on, the lit state of the [SEL] key will differ as follows
depending on the status of the channel.
•
Dark ……………… ESAM FADER is off
•
Lit red …………… ESAM FADER is on; a FROM channel
•
Blinking red ……… ESAM FADER is on; a TO channel
•
Lit green …………… ESAM FADER is on; not a FROM/TO channel
16. Adjust the input/output levels
Here we will set the level balance of the channels that are faded-out by crossfading
(the levels of the FROM machine) and of the channels that are faded-in by
crossfading (the levels of the TO machine). Fader operations modify the channel
levels. When a crossfade is initiated by an ESAM command from the video editor,
the crossfade level (the ESAM fader) will change from 0 dB to –
∞
dB on the
FROM machine channel, and from –
∞
dB to 0 dB on the TO machine channel.
Set the stereo fader to 0 dB. If you are not using pre-read, you will need to set the
REC machine channels to 0 dB in order to monitor the return from the REC
machine.

Level settings for the FROM machine
Use the faders to adjust the level of the channels you want to assign to the
FROM machine. When ESAM commands are subsequently sent from the
video editor, they will be assigned to the FROM machine. The fader level
at this time will be the starting level for the crossfade (the starting level for
the fade-out). The ESAM fader has a fixed starting value of 0 dB and
target value of –
∞
dB.
