As shown it is very easy to set up a specific submix for whatever output: select output channel,
set up fader and pans of inputs and playbacks – ready!
For advanced users sometimes it makes sense to work without Submix
View. Example: you want to see and set up some channels of different
submixes simultaneously, without the need to change between them all
the time. Switch off the Submix View by a click on the green button. Now
the black routing fields below the faders no longer show the same entry
(3+4), but completely different ones. The fader and pan position is the
one of the individually shown routing destination.
In playback channel 1 (middle row), labelled Out 1, click onto the routing
field below the label. A list pops up, showing a checkmark in front of
'1+2'. So currently playback channel 1 is sent to this routing destination.
Click onto '7+8'. The list disappears, the routing field no longer shows
'1+2', but '7+8'. Now move the fader with the mouse. As soon as the
fader value is unequal m.a., the present state is being stored and routing
is activated. Move the fader button to around 0 dB. The present gain
value is displayed below the fader in green letters.
In the lower row, on channel 7, you can see the level of what you are
hearing from output 7. The level meter of the hardware output shows the
outgoing level. Click into the area above the fader and drag the mouse in
order to set the panorama, in this case the routing between channels 7
and 8. The present pan value is also being displayed below the fader.
Please carry out the same steps for Out 2 now, in order to route it to
output 8 as well.
In short: While editing the Submix 7+8 you have direct access to other
submixes on other channels, because their routing fields are set to
different destinations. And you get a direct view of how their faders and
panoramas are set up.
This kind of visual presentation is very powerful, but for many users
hard to understand, and requires a deep understanding of complex
routing visualizations. Therefore we usually re-commend to work in
Submix View.
Often signals are stereo, i. e. a pair of two channels. It is therefore helpful to be able to make
the routing settings for two channels at once. Hold down the Ctrl-key and click into the routing
field of Out 3. The routing list pops up with a checkmark at '3+4'. Select '7+8'. Now, Out 4 has
already been set to '7+8' as well.
When you want to set the fader to exactly 0 dB, this can be difficult, depending on the mouse
configuration. Move the fader close to the 0 position and now press the Shift-key. This activates
the fine mode, which stretches the mouse movements by a factor of 8. In this mode, a gain
setting accurate to 0.1 dB is no problem at all.
Please set Out 4 to a gain of around -20 dB and the pan close to center. Now click onto the
routing field. You'll now see two checkmarks, at '3+4' and '7+8'. Click onto '9+10'. The window
disappears, fader and pan jump to their initial values, the signal can now be routed to the out-
puts 9 and 10. You can continue like this until all entries have got a checkmark, i. e. you can
send the signal to all outputs simultaneously.
