Adjusting the faders (Calibration function)
Depending on the environment in which you use the QL series console, discrepancies may
occur in the motion of the motor faders. You can use the Calibration function to correct these
discrepancies.
NOTE
With this operation, the specified faders in the Channel Strip section and Master section will be
semi-automatically calibrated. This window will also appear if a problem is detected in the fader
settings while the QL is starting up.
NOTE
• Faders for which a problem was detected at start-up will already be selected in step 3.
• If the RESTART button appears, calibration has failed. Press the RESTART button to execute
calibration once again.
• Once initialization is complete, you can continue operation by selecting a different menu instead
of pressing the EXIT button.
Fine-tuning the input and output gain (Calibration
function)
If necessary, you can make fine adjustments to the input and output gain.
NOTE
• If you press the RESET ALL button provided in each screen, all settings in the screen will be reset
to 0 dB.
The factory settings are also 0 dB.
• Once initialization is complete, you can continue operation by selecting a different menu instead
of pressing the EXIT button.
