on the other channel. Also, ganging the faders ties them together so they will
maintain their relative placement with regard to each other. Holding down the
Shift key reverses the state of the gang button; that is, if the gang button is down,
holding down shift puts you in non-ganged mode and vice versa.

Analog Inputs

The controls for the analog inputs are outlined in red and have the label "Analog
in" at the bottom. There is one strip, or input monitor, corresponding to each of
Layla24's eight physical analog inputs. The controls affect the audio going to the
currently selected output bus.
The topmost control is a button labeled "+4"; this button allows you to select the
nominal level for this analog input. Since the button currently reads "+4," it is
ready to accept a +4 dBu signal. Click the button to change this input to –10 dBV
mode. This button will affect the level of what you record as well as the monitor
level.
Below the "nominal level" button is the peak meter for this channel, labeled in
decibels. Under the peak meter is the monitor pan slider; this pans the input
channel between the two channels of the output bus. Holding down the Ctrl key
and clicking on a pan slider will set the slider to the center position. Note that this
does not affect your recording. Below the pan slider is the monitor mute. This
controls whether or not you want this input channel to be mixed directly out to the
currently selected output bus. Again, this does not affect recording. This is
followed by the monitor fader, which controls the input monitor level. Like the
pan and mute controls, this does not affect your record level. Also, clicking on the
readout below the fader will allow you to numerically enter a fader setting.
The analog inputs also have gang buttons, and their operation is the same as the
gang button for the master outputs.
