m908 User Manual, Rev. G
With the three "pages" of SOLO/MUTE switches there are a total of 24 controls. From the
factory the first 8 of the SOLO/MUTE switches are mapped to speaker channels as indicated on
the RCU panel: L, C, R, LS, SUB, RS, LB, RB. SOLO/MUTE switches 9-24 (pages 2-3) are
unassigned.
More than one speaker channel can be mapped to a SOLO/MUTE switch. This allows for
solo/mute "groups" to be created. For instance, you could have a SOLO/MUTE switch assigned
to all of the overhead speakers in an ATMOS system. One button press would then allow muting
and soloing of the whole group of speakers at once.
The mapping of speaker channels to SOLO/MUTE switches can be changed in the
section of this manual.
5.16 VOLUME (push for phones)
The m908 utilizes a single rotary push-button encoder for the Control Room speaker volume
level, Headphone volume level, and volume level preset recall.
Pushing the VOLUME encoder toggles between Control Room and Headphone control.
Turning the VOLUME encoder increases and decreases the monitoring level in 0.5dB steps.
The VOLUME control can also be set to coarse/fine mode where each volume step is 4.5dB.
In this mode pushing and turning the encoder knob will make 0.5dB steps.
The volume control is speed sensitive, so the turning the knob at a higher velocity results in
faster volume changes with larger step sizes.
With Control Room Speaker control active:
Push-hold of the VOLUME encoder will set the monitoring level to the Preset Level.
There are two modes of level display for the Control Room level:
