Initializing a channel

The mix parameters (EQ, dynamics, pan, etc.) of a chan-
nel can be reset to their default settings in a single opera-
tion. This function lets you start mixdown or bounce
operations with the track channels "zeroed," and provides
an easy way to reset the levels back to the nominal setting
if you can no longer hear any sound.
1
In the Quick Navigate section, repeatedly
press the [MONITOR] key or hold down the
[MONITOR] key and use the CURSOR [ ]/
[ ] keys to access the INIT page.
In this page you can separately initialize the mix
parameters of input channels 1–8, pad channels 1–4,
or track channels 1–16.
2
Press the [INPUT SEL] key, pad, or [TRACK
SEL] key for the channel that you want to
initialize.
When you press a key or pad, the upper line of the
screen will indicate "CH.PARAMETER INITIAL-
IZED," and the corresponding channel will be initial-
ized. (Channel library 00 will be recalled.)
An initialized channel will have the following mix
parameter settings.
