Basics Of Signal Selection; Bus Selection - Sony MVS-8000X User Manual

Basics of Signal Selection

Each of the M/E banks, PGM/PST bank and auxiliary bus control block has 32
cross-point buttons and three reentry buttons (four in the case of the auxiliary
bus control block).
These buttons are identified by numbers common to all of the banks and block,
and a signal is assigned to each number.
The basis of signal selection is to select, in a cross-point button row, the cross-
point button to which is assigned the desired signal.
Reentry buttons
To use the output of one M/E bank as background input to another bank, use
the reentry buttons [M/E1], [M/E2], and [M/E3] (on the auxiliary bus control
block, [M/E1], [M/E2], [M/E3], and [PGM]) in the cross-point control block
of the destination bank.
For example, to feed the output from the M/E-1 bank as the background B input
to M/E-2, in the M/E-2 cross-point control block, press the [M/E1] button in
the background B row.
Notes
• To select M/E 4, it is necessary to assign M/E 4 to a button.
For details of the assignment, see "Assigning a Region to the Region
Selection Buttons in the Numeric Keypad Control Block or Multifunction
Flexi Pad Control Block"in Chapter 19 (Volume 3).
• For a 5M/E system, a maximum of four re-entry stages are possible. For
other restrictions on re-entry, see page 454.

Bus Selection

Each row of 32 cross-point buttons is shared by multiple buses.
To assign a bus to the cross-point buttons in the auxiliary bus control block,
press one of the AUX delegation buttons to select the bus.
Notes
When using the CCP-6224/6324, buses may be assigned with the cross-point
button rows for keys 1 and 2 as the auxiliary bus control block.
The following table illustrates the correspondence between buses and cross-
point button rows, and the delegation operations.
