XIV. SHIFT and the Green Button Labels
Many of the console buttons have two labels: a white label and a green
label. The white label refers to the button's normal functionality. The
green label describes the button's function when you press it while
holding down SHIFT. For example:
• If you press PROJECT without holding down SHIFT, the PROJECT
screen appears containing parameters that relate to project
management. This corresponds to the button's white label,
"PROJECT."
• If you hold down SHIFT and press the same button, the SYSTEM
screen appears, offering system-related parameters—this is why the
button's green label says "SYSTEM."
We've already used the SHIFT button when discussing how the PARAM
VIEW on Fader buttons work while the INPUT CH 1-24 SECTION
button is lit, back on Page 9 of this application guide.
XV. The CH EDIT Buttons
Earlier, we discussed how the PARAM VIEW on Fader feature lets you
quickly adjust a single parameter's value in all of your channels at once.
Most of the time, however, you'll be concentrating on the settings for
one channel at a time. The Channel Edit—or CH EDIT—buttons provide
access all of the parameters associated with an individual channel. You
can then edit the currently selected parameters using the V knobs and
F buttons.
As you might expect, the parameters you'll see on the display when you
press a CH EDIT button depend on what the channel is currently doing,
as shown by the currently lit SECTION button.
The Simplest Way to Use the CH EDIT Buttons
To view and adjust a channel's settings, press its CH EDIT button. In
operating modes that offer more than a single page of parameters per
channel—such as when INPUT CH 1-24 is lit—you'll see the now-
familiar page list in the upper-righthand corner. Press PAGE UP or
PAGE DOWN to navigate to the desired screenful of parameters.
When working with input, multi in and Flex Bus channels, the CH VIEW
screen presents all of a channel's parameters in condensed form on a
single screen. Use this screen when you want to set a wide range of
channel parameters quickly. To make adjustments with a greater degree
of visual feedback, use the parameters' individual CH EDIT screens.
The Fastest Way to Use the CH EDIT Buttons
When working with input, multi in or Flex Bus channels, you can quickly
jump to any parameter screen using the QUICK CH EDIT feature. Each
parameter screen is represented by a STATUS button—the labels
underneath the button shows its parameter screen.
