Set a starting point for processing and mix parameters 

Start  by  using  the 

Processing

  screen  Preamp  page 

Linking

 

button  to  link  parameters  for  any  odd/even  stereo  pairs  of 

channels  you  may  need.  For  example,  stereo  keyboards  or 

backing  tracks.  Adjusting 

Pan 

on  one  channel  will  set  the 

width for the pair. 

There  are  several  ways  to  quickly  set  up  the  input  and  mix 

channel processing ready to start your sound check: 

 

Processing Libraries – Use the 

Processing

 screen 

Fn

 key to 

open  the 

Library

  page  for  the  related  block,  for  example  the 

PEQ. 

Factory  Libraries

  provide  presets  as  examples  and  a  typical 

starting  point.  They  cannot  be  overwritten  or  deleted. 

User 

Libraries

 can be stored, named and edited. 

 

Channel  Library  –  This  preset  recalls  all  processing  (Gate, 

PEQ,  Comp,  Delay)  for  the  input  channel.  Turn  on  ‘Recall 

Preamp’  if  you  want  this  to  also  include  the  preamp  settings 

(Gain, Pad, 48V, Polarity). Channel libraries do not include the 

linking or ducker settings. 

Channel libraries can provide a very quick and complete way 

to  set  a  starting  point  before  sound  check  once  you  have 

named your channels. 

 

Copy / Paste / Reset – These keys provide a powerful tool for 

quickly setting up your processing. They work in a similar way. 

Press  and  hold  the  key  down.  While  holding,  press  or  touch 

another item to perform the action: 

+ Front panel 

Sel

 key = all related processing (not preamp) 

+ SuperStrip ‘In’ key = just that block, eg PEQ 

+ SuperStrip ‘USB’ key = Preamp 

Processing

 top of screen = just that block 

Processing

 top of screen Gain knob = Preamp 

Channel

 Mix Select 

Mix 

button = its mix levels, pan, assign 

These actions do not affect channel linking or ducker settings. 

Reset  -  Sets  related  parameters  to  factory  default.  For 

example  PEQ  flat,  Gate  out,  Mix  levels  off,  pans  mid, 

assignments on. 

Copy / Paste – Hold Copy and press/touch the item you want 

to  copy.  Then  hold  Paste  and  press/touch  the  channel 

Sel

 

key, Select box, or 

Mix

 button you want to paste it to. You can 

quickly  paste  settings  to  multiple  channels  or  mixes.  For 

example, to copy CH2 PEQ only to CH3, 4 and 5: 

Copy+CH2 PEQ top of screen, then 

Paste+CH3, then CH4, then CH5 

Sel

 keys 

 

Qu-Pad  app  –  You  can  also  name  channels,  set  channel 

linking and recall the Libraries using the Qu-Pad app.
