In order to allow console controls to be used for controlling either analogue signals or an external DAW,
SSL created ‘Focus modes’ as a way of allowing the AWS to ‘focus’ on one or other domain. To switch
between modes, press the Focus switch, towards the bottom of the console centre section (shown right).
The button is lit for Analogue Focus, and unlit for DAW Focus. Focus mode can also be quickly checked
by looking at the channel meters: The bottom LEDs stay lit when the console is in Analogue Focus.
While a number of controls always retain the same role (such as analogue signal processing, routing and monitoring, or DAW
transport control), the roles of the following controls are different in each Focus mode:
When the console is in DAW Focus mode, analogue level control of stereo channels can be assigned to the V-pots
by pressing the CHANNEL button, to the left of the Focus button. This allows ‘In-Line’-style signal control but
with the monitor mix being created using the DAW digital mixer. Pressing the V-pot will then reverse the functions
of the V-pot and fader.
Channel meters can be locked to either Focus mode by entering the Function Keys’ Meters menu and selecting
either DAW or Anl .
In In-line Channel Modes, the V-pot adjusts the secondary channel path’s level, as explained on Page 2b-5.
