Remember that although you have edited and saved changes to your Group,
you must still save the Preset if you want to recall the Preset with the new
Group configuration intact.
Muting Groups
Groups can be muted if necessary while creating a mix or editing. The
procedure is the same as for muting a single Channel. To mute a Group:
•
First select one of the Channels that is part of the Group.
•
The upper (red) LED in each Channel button that is part of a
Group will be lit solid.
•
To mute the Group, simply press the M
•
The lower (yellow) LEDs in all Channel buttons contained
in the Group will light, indicating that the Channels are now
muted.
•
Unmute the Group by pressing the M
the Group is still selected.
Note: The mute status of your Groups is saved as part of a Preset.
Global Trim Function
The Global Trim function can be used to lower all sixteen audio levels
in a mix simultaneously, which is useful when some of the channels are
nearing maximum level and additional mix balance changes are required.
This function operates in a similar manner to a studio mixing console with
automation; invoking the command calculates a new volume level for all
channels.
The Global Trim function drops the level of the mix by 6dB with each
use, keeping the relative levels intact among the sixteen audio channels.
Changes to volume levels are instantly updated and can be seen on the
volume LED readout as each channel is selected. Note that as channels ap-
proach their minimum volume level that the mix balance will change since
the A-16II has no way of re-balancing the mix once the minimum level for a
channel has been reached.
The Trim function is labeled on the A-16II front panel, once near the G
button and once near the M
used to perform the Global Trim.
To Use the Global Trim function:
