The DD1500m has inside it a 16-channel digital mixer that allows you to set the levels and
pans of tracks. Furthermore, the mixer may be controlled over MIDI and automated mixing
is possible using an external MIDI sequencer.

SETTING TRACK LEVELS AND PAN

To set the level and pan of a track, select the track for mixing in the usual way by pressing
one of the EDIT track select keys and then press the ENABLE key found below the fader.
Its LED will flash. You may now use the fader and the pan pot to set the level and pan for
the selected track. To reset the channel, press SHIFT+ENABLE.
It is also possible to select several tracks for mixing and set their levels and pans
simultaneously. This is useful for setting the levels of stereo cues across two tracks
(although you will need to separately set the pan position for each track hard left and hard
right accordingly). To reset the selected channels, press SHIFT+ENABLE.
The mix that you set for the channels is saved as part of the project.
