Fader Bay Details

Momentary/Latching Keys
2-4 Desk Operation
The fader bay is subdivided into six areas:
Area [1] contains the TFT meters dedicated to each channel strip. For details
of the metering plese refer to chapter 2.5.
Area [2] contains rotary controls dedicated to each channel strip. This rotary
control can have one out of six functions, assigned by the attached viewing
keys. Unless the bay is currently locked, changing the assigned function
affects the whole console, not only that specific bay.
Area [3] contains various controls, dedicated to each channel strip: Audio
functions on/off, Copy/Paste, Selectors, and other standard elements, such as
Fader, Mute, PFL etc.
Area [4] hosts the Vistonics™ element with 10 × 4 on-screen rotary controls
and a touch screen area. Some rounded keys are located next to the screen in
order to change parameter views on the Vistonics™ screen. The Vistonics™
module can act as a channel-strip-specific control, dedicating four rotary
controls as well as their associated bitmaps and graphical displays of the most
important settings to each channel strip. It can also act in a sort of 'central
assign section'-way, occupying any number of Vistonics™ controls, in order
to access multiple parameters of one specific channel strip. In that case the
control elements of adjacent channels are used as well.
Area [5] These keys are generically used either to select channels or influence
any operation on them.
Area [6] contains controls that are determining which DSP channels are cur-
rently visible on that bay. It is possible to either change the whole console to
display a different section, or just let that specific bay change to show some
different DSP channels.
 Each key marked with this symbol can be activated either in momentary or
in latching mode. Pressing this key for a short time will make it latching.
Holding it down for a longer period of time makes its function momentary,
i.e. will reverse its function automatically upon release.
