Input Ganging and Output Ganging
The method of linking inputs or outputs together during editing is achieved in the same way, so only crossover (output)
ganging will be explained here. Having selected
Crossover Ganging

from the menu under the
Crossover

Sub Sub Sub Sub- - - -Menu Menu Menu Menu
, the current ganging set-up will be displayed. This will either be a preset selection as would be useful in a
standard crossover configuration – for example
< << <- - - -Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging
Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8
…would be a logical ganging arrangement if the crossover was set up as a 4 x 2 way – linking the control and adjustment of
all “Low” outputs together, and that of all “High” outputs together.
However, if the crossover has not been set up with a preset routing configuration, then it may be required to set up the
ganging to compliment this configuration. This is achieved using the
Free Assign Free Assign Free Assign Free Assign
mode. This is selected from the
preset ganging choices
5
, which are:
Ganging=None
Ganging=None Ganging=None
Ganging=None
[all outputs independent]
Ganging=Free Assign Ganging=Free Assign Ganging=Free Assign Ganging=Free Assign
[choose ganging]
Ganging=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 Ganging=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 Ganging=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 Ganging=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8
[1 x 8 way]
Ganging=1+5 2+6 3+7 4+8
Ganging=1+5 2+6 3+7 4+8 Ganging=1+5 2+6 3+7 4+8
Ganging=1+5 2+6 3+7 4+8
[4 x 2 way]
Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8 Ganging=1+3+5+7 2+4+6+8
[2 x 4 way]
Selecting
Free Assign Free Assign Free Assign Free Assign
and then pressing
ENTER
will begin the process of ganging outputs together using the
following simple rules:
All outputs are ganged to the lowest number – so to gang 3 & 5, 5 must be selected and then ganged to 3.
Outputs cannot share more than one ganging set – so for example output 3 cannot be ganged to 2 and 4 unless
they are ganged together as well. (Effectively 3 and 4 are ganged to 2 in this case)
With these rules in mind, selecting and setting up gangs is quite straightforward.
Press a
MUTE
key to choose the output to gang – its LED will begin to flash, and an
EDIT
key will illuminate to show
which output it is currently ganged with. To change this selection, just press another EDIT key, remembering that gangs
work from the highest to lowest number. So, to gang outputs 1 and 5, press
MUTE 5
then
EDIT 1
– the display will show
< << <- - - -Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging Crossover Ganging
Gang Output 5 with 1 Gang Output 5 with 1 Gang Output 5 with 1 Gang Output 5 with 1
Ganging is cleared by selecting
Ganging=None Ganging=None Ganging=None Ganging=None
from the initial choices given above. The
Input Ganging Input Ganging Input Ganging Input Ganging
procedure is identical to the crossover ganging, selectable under the
Input Sub Input Sub Input Sub Input Sub- - - -Menu Menu Menu Menu
.
5 Ganging choices will be dependent on the 4 Series
