Aux and FX Bus Channel Sends
In addition to setting the dynamics for each channel and bus, and metering each
channel and output, the Fat Channel allows you to create aux mixes and quickly view
the send level for each channel.
The Encoder Mode buttons to the left of the Fat Channel are used
for this purpose. Each of these buttons allows you to view and
set the send level for each channel to that aux or FX mix.
FXA and FXB Encoder Mode Buttons. Enables FXA
or FXB Bus Mixing in the Fat Channel.
When one of these buttons is enabled, the 12 encoders in the Fat Channel become
the FX-send level controls for each of their respective input channels to the enabled
bus (FXA or FXB). The meters will display the send amount of each of the input
channels. The encoders for the stereo channels set the send level for both the Left
and the Right input, provided that stereo linking is enabled.
See Section5.1 for details
.
Aux 1-4 Encoder Mode Buttons. Enables Aux Mixing in the Fat Channel.
When any of these button is enabled, the 12 encoders in the Fat Channel become the
aux-send level controls for each of their respective input channels to enabled Aux
bus (Aux 1-4). The meters will display the send amount of each of the input channels.
The encoders for the stereo channels set the send level for both the Left and the
Right input, provided that stereo linking is enabled.
See Section 5.1 for details
.
When an Aux pair is Stereo linked, the Aux 2 and Aux 4 buttons enable pan
control for each channel in the Aux pair, and the 12 encoders in the Fat Channel
become the pan controls for each of their respective input channels. The meters
will display the pan setting of each of the input channels. Use Aux 1 and Aux 3
Encoder mode buttons to set the send level of each channel to the aux pair.
