When one of the above buttons is selected (lit), all
24 V-Pots control that function for each of the 24 chan-
nels in the selected bank.
In addition, windows that contain adjustable param-
eters, like the Dynamics and EQ windows, have their
controls situated above the channel V-Pots, which
temporarily become controls for the parameters in
the window, overriding the V-Pot Assign selection. As
soon as the window is closed, V-Pot control returns to
whatever is selected in the V-Pot Assign section.
• Selects a channel for editing.
• Double-pressing the SELECT button opens the
Dynamics and EQ windows for that channel.
• Pressing and holding the SELECT button opens
the Channel Settings window (Channel > Chan-
nel Settings) for that channel.
• Pressing and holding two SELECT buttons at
the same time opens the LINK SETUP window
for linking two channels.
• The function of the ASSIGN button is deter-
mined by what is selected in the ASSIGN BUT-
TON SETUP area.
• When REC is selected, the AS-
ASSIGN BUTTON
SIGN buttons arm channels for
SETUP
recording via MMC (MIDI Machine
REC
Control). The ASSIGN button blinks
to indicate REC READY status.
When RECORD is activated in the
L - R
Transport section, the ASSIGN but-
ton lights steadily to indicate the
channel is recording.
READ
• When L-R is selected, the AS-
SIGN buttons indicate the channels
that are assigned to the L-R mix
WRITE
bus. This lets you quickly assign and
unassign channels from the L-R mix, and have
an overall view of the assigned to the L-R mix
for the selected bank.
• When READ is selected, the ASSIGN buttons
determine which channels playback automation.
If a channel has automation data associated
with it and it is not Read-enabled, automation
data will be ignored for that channel.
• When WRITE is selected, the ASSIGN buttons
determine which channels can be written to au-
tomation. A channel must be Write-enabled (and
the BYPASS button turned off in the AUTOMA-
TION MODES section) in order to write automa-
tion data for that channel.
• Pressing SOLO lets you hear
only the soloed channel in the
Control Room output (or the Left
and Right Mix if Mixdown solo
is enabled).
• Select the solo mode in the
SOLO section: PFL, AFL, and
Mixdown (see the SOLO section
description for more information
on solo modes).
• The CLEAR button in the SOLO
section blinks whenever any
channel is soloed. Press the
CLEAR button to turn off all
SOLO buttons.
• Soloing multiple channels is
accomplished by holding the
SHIFT key (on the console or
keyboard) while pressing the
SOLO buttons on all desired
channels. Also, selected Solo
Latch in Windows > Setup >
Mix Options allows you select
multiple solos.
• Solo Isolate mode is accom-
plished by holding down the ALT
key (on the console or keyboard)
while pressing a channel's SOLO
button. A solo isolated chan-
nel is always active on the solo
bus and therefore will not mute
when other channels are soloed.
The SOLO button blinks to indi-
cate Solo Isolate mode.
Note: The CLEAR button does not turn off Solo
Isolated channels. You must hold down the ALT
key while pressing the SOLO button to turn off a
Solo Isolated channel.
• Mutes the signal after the channel fader.
• Mute is prior to the L-R bus and Bus 1-8.
• Does not affect the Channel Out (Direct Out) or
pre-fader Aux send. It does affect the post-fader
Aux send.
• Controls the signal level from the channel to the
bus or buses it is assigned to (typically the L-R
bus and the Bus 1-8 output).
• It does not affect the signal going to the Direct
Out (Channel Out) or the pre-fader Aux send.
