TASCAM DM-3200 Owner’s Manual
Fader layers
The DM-3200 has sixteen
channel faders and encoders,
but is capable of controlling
48 channels, in addition to
the master aux send and buss
levels.
The faders (and the encod-
ers, when the encoders are
associated with channels)
are therefore arranged in
layers, allowing different
groups of faders to be
accessed.
Use the
LAYER STATUS
keys (which light when the
appropriate layer is active)
to select these layers. These
keys are located to the right
of the master fader. When
these keys are pressed, the faders move to the appro-
priate positions, reflecting the new fader layer.
The first three keys are used to select the channels (1
through 16, 17 through 32 and 33 through 48).
Following this, the next key selects the 16 busses.
The next key selects the aux sends, and uses the first
eight faders for this purpose (faders 9 through 16 are
disabled here).
The faders may be used for remote DAW control, etc.
in
REMOTE mode.
Special controls
The DM-3200 incorporates a few controls that are
not found on every digital mixer and which therefore
may be a little unfamiliar. These are the PODs, which are located immediately
below the display, and the 16 encoders, located above
the channel strips.
The PODs
The DM-3200 has four encoder/key combinations
(referred to as PODs) below the display. The func- tion of these pods varies according to the current
screen display.
Very often, in a screen with many controls displayed,
the up and down cursor keys are used to move a high-
lighting box around the screen. These boxes high-
light a maximum of four on-screen rotary controls,
which are then controlled by the corresponding POD encoders (immediately below the on-screen con-
trols).
Note also the contrast control to the right of the
PODs.
