not, you can adjust them individually using the

Hello Moto: If you have motorized faders, you
can "mirror" other motorized faders while you
are in Capture Mode. A motorized fader that is
"slaved" to a master fader will move automati-
cally to mirror the movements of the master.
Mirrored faders both control gain for the same
source, but the master can override the setting
of the slave — useful for "split" Element setups
where talent has a local set of faders that may
be used to control certain sources, but you still
want the Board Operator to have master control.
To mirror a fader, press the Options key above
the fader you wish to make the "slave". An apos-
'
trophe (
) will be displayed next to its numeric
PGM1

indicator. Pressing the fader's PGM1 and PGM2
keys will change the numeric indicator, indicating
the "Master" to which this fader is now slaved; a
display reading
2'
means that the fader is slaved
to fader 2.
Pressing the Options key again returns the fad-
er to non-mirrored mode.
Short Navigation Tutorial
There are several different ways to change on-screen
options. The first way is with Element's SoftKnobs, lo-
cated directly above the Monitor Module and shown in
Figure 1-7.
Figure 1-7: Element SoftKnobs.
These knobs are context-sensitive. When any of Ele-
ment's setup modes are activated using the options keys
on the faders or Master Module, you'll see a correspond-
ing row of "knobs" represented onscreen, as shown in
Figure 1-8.
Figure 1-8: On-screen SoftKnobs.
Note that there are sometimes functions shown both
above and below the on-screen SoftKnobs. When a func-
tion is presented above the knob, turning that knob ac-
complishes that function. When a function is presented
below the knob, pushing in gently on the corresponding
SoftKnob activates that function. The example shown in
Figure 1-8 is from the IP Address Book screen.
If your Element is equipped with the standard Moni-
tor Module, you can also navigate using the control knob,
directional keys and Enter key located at the lower right-
hand corner of the module, as shown in Figure 1-9.
