Channel ON/OFF
The channel [ON] buttons are used to turn channels ON and OFF.
This function is sometimes called MUTE.
1. Press channel 9’s [ON] button.
The sound is cut and the [ON] button’s LED goes OFF.
2. Press the [ON] button again to turn the channel back ON.
Note how the signal level is displayed on the LCD even when the chan-
nel is OFF. This is because the meter signal is sourced before the [ON]
button. If you were to set the CUE mode to LAST CUE while channel
9 is turned OFF, the sound would reappear for MONITOR OUT and
PHONES. LAST CUE mode allows you to set up channels before
feeding them to the main mix.
3. Leave CUE mode set to ST FIX and channel 9 turned ON.
Panning
Now we’ll use pan to position channel 9 in the stereo field.
1. Press [PAN
∅
].
The PAN LCD function shown below appears.
The number under pan control #9 is highlighted. Channel 9 pan is
currently set to center.
2. Turn the PARAMETER wheel counterclockwise to pan to the
left, and clockwise to pan to the right.
Including center, there are 33 pan positions. As pan is adjusted, the
marker line inside the pan control indicates the pan position, just like
a real rotary pan control. The pan position is also indicated by the
horizontal bar below the pan controls. The number to the left of this
bar is the channel number. The value to the right indicates the exact
pan position. This display shows channel 9 panned hard-left.
3. Set the pan back to center before proceeding with the
“Advanced Mixing Tutorial” on page 23.
