D
PAN control
This rotary control is used to pan the currently selected Input Channel. When a Matrix
Send or the Stereo Out is selected, it is used to set the balance. For Input Channels in Gang
or Inverse Gang Pan mode, horizontally or vertically paired Input Channels are panned
simultaneously. See “Panning Input Channels” on page 95, “Balancing the Stereo Out” on
page 106, and “Balancing Matrix Send Masters” on page 126.
E
LINK button
This button, which is enabled only when a Surround mode other than Stereo is selected, is
used to link the PAN control and the Joystick so that either control can be used for normal
and surround panning. It’s a global setting that applies to all Input Channels. Its indicator
lights up when the PAN control and Joystick are linked. If the Joystick is set to control effects
(i.e., the [EFFECT] button indicator is lit), this button is disabled. See “Panning Input
Channels” on page 95 and “Using Surround Pan” on page 97 for more information.
F
GRAB button
This button is used to turn on and off Joystick control for the currently selected Input Chan-
nel. Its indicator lights up when Grab is on. When Grab is on, the Joystick can be used to
control the currently selected Input Channel’s surround pan position. When turned off, the
Joystick does not control surround pan. In Stereo mode, it controls the currently-selected
Input Channel’s pan position. If the PAN control and the Joystick are linked (i.e., the
[LINK] button indicator is lit), Grab is turned off if the PAN control is adjusted. If the Joy-
stick is set to control effects (i.e., the [EFFECT] button indicator is lit), this button is dis-
abled.
G
EFFECT button
This button is used to select the Joystick for parameter control of the Reverb 5.1 effect. Its
indicator lights up when Reverb 5.1 effect control is on, and the Joystick cannot be used for
surround panning. See “REVERB 5.1” on page 326 for more information.
H
Joystick
This control can be used for surround panning, normal panning, or parameter control of
the Reverb 5.1 effect. When the [EFFECT] button indicator is lit, the Joystick controls the
Reverb 5.1 effect. See “REVERB 5.1” on page 326 for more information. When the
[EFFECT] button indicator is off and the [GRAB] button indicator is on, the Joystick con-
trols surround panning of the currently selected Input Channel. When the [EFFECT] but-
ton and [GRAB] button indicators are both off, the Joystick can still be used for surround
panning if the Auto Grab preference is on. See “Using Surround Pan” on page 97 for more
information. When the [EFFECT] button indicator is off but the [GRAB] button and
[LINK] button indicators are both on, the Joystick can be used for normal panning in uni-
son with the PAN control. See “Panning Input Channels” on page 95 for more information.
