About the Channel Faders
Each channel strip provides a fader whose primary job is the
control of the channel's signal level—you can also use the faders
for controlling other things, as we've already noted. Faders are
especially helpful when adjusting, or "riding," signal levels during
an actual recording or mix. (You set up basic recording levels
using the SENS knobs, as described on Page 126.)
The VS-2400CD's faders are motorized, so each fader
automatically moves to its channel's current level setting when
you press one of the FADER buttons to select a new set of
channels. When you use Automix (Chapter 25), the faders move
up and down automatically to reflect automated level changes.
And when you load a project, the faders move to their channels'
most recent level settings.
