Real Fader Mode
Virtual Fader Mode
The fader switch enables the fader assignment/display mode for the fader tray LED’s.
The virtual fader recall mode switch enables the operation of the virtual fader system.
In real fader mode, all of the internal VCA systems are controlled by the real (physical)
faders. The automation system can assist in the control of each real fader by prompting the
user using the 11 LEDs next to each fader.
The fader positions stored in a snapshot memory can be viewed by recalling the scene and
pressing the virtual fader recall mode switch. The LEDs will flash to indicate the stored
position of the fader. As the fader is moved towards the position shown, the LED will stay
alight continuously until the fader is in the correct position. If the fader is just under the
stored position, a LED will light above the fader position. If the fader is just over the stored
position, a LED will light below the fader position until the fader is positioned to the correct
level.
In virtual fader mode, the console automation takes control of all the internal VCA systems
and displays a representation of the virtual fader position using the 11 LEDs next to the real
fader. Additional adjustment trims can be added if necessary.
If the console is unlocked to RECALL mode or higher, scenes may be recalled but not stored
or overstored. If fader adjustments are required, the fader must be ‘picked up’ by taking it
to the 0dB level. Fader adjustments then remain active for all subsequent scenes recalled
(unless the adjustment is cleared).
If the console is unlocked to STORE mode or higher, scenes may be recalled, stored and
overstored. When storing a snapshot, the virtual fader level is always stored, regardless of
the real fader. If fader adjustments are required, the fader must be ‘picked up’ by taking it
to the current virtual fader position. When a new scene is recalled, the fader adjustment is
removed forcing the user to ‘pick up’ the fader again before making further adjustments.

The Heritage 4000’s automation system can be locked so that it’s memories cannot be
changed, erased or overwritten by mistake.
This is done in the SYSTEM menu (more explanation of this later in this section) under the
LOCK section.
Four (4) options are available which will limit the amount of access granted to users of the
console.
All automation and assignment functions disabled
Only recall and assignment functions are available
Scene storage/editing, recall and assignment are available
All functions are available
This protection is designed as a protection against accidental rather than security
protection as it is not password protected.
