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 approach 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:
• Hold the
• While still holding the
once.
• The mix is trimmed by 6dB on all channels
• Perform additional trims as needed.
