PARAM

When the LCD display is in mixer mode, the
PARAM knob cycles through the mix parameters
listed below. Use the CURSOR knob to scroll to a
particular channel (until it flashes) and use the
VALUE knob to change its setting:
Mix
parameter Range
Comments
Gain
OFF,
Each channel displays a small fader.
-84 to 0 dB
Push the VALUE knob to toggle
between OFF and unity gain (0dB).
Pan
-64 to +64
Push the VALUE knob to jump to
pan center. Stereo pairs (explained
Zero = pan
below) are panned hard left/right by
center
default.
Solo
"s" or
Push the VALUE knob to toggle
blank
between soloed (S) and not soloed
(blank), or turn the knob to toggle.
Mute
"m" or
Push the VALUE knob to toggle
blank
between muted (m) and unmuted
(blank), or turn the knob to toggle.
4/10
down (+4)
This setting applies universally
or up (-10)
across ALL mix busses for analog
inputs 5-8. Push the VALUE knob to
toggle between a +4dB reference
level (down) and a -10dB reference
level (up). Or turn the knob to toggle.
+6db
"+" or 0
This setting applies universally
across ALL mix busses for analog
inputs 5-8. Push the VALUE knob to
toggle between a +6dB software
boost (+) and no boost (0). Or turn
the knob to toggle.
Pair
"[ ]" or
This setting applies universally
blank
across ALL mixes. Push the VALUE
knob to toggle a stereo input pair
between separate mono inputs
(blank) or a stereo pair ("[ ]"). Or
turn the knob to toggle. When a pair
of inputs are linked, all of their mix
settings become linked (gain, solo,
etc.) except for pan. When the pair is
first created, pan is set to hard left
and hard right, but the channels can
then be further modified indepen-
dently. When a pair is unlinked, the
channels are set to pan-center.

Mix parameters that apply across all mixes
The last three mix settings (input reference level,
+6dB software boost, and stereo pairing) apply
across all mixes because they have to do with the
nature of the input itself. For example, if you have
an input that requires a -10dB reference level, then
you'll want the reference level to apply to all mixes.
Working with stereo pairs
When you group a pair of inputs as a stereo pair, all
of their mix settings become linked, and whenever
you scroll to either channel, both channels will
flash to indicate that they will operate as a linked
stereo pair. Note that when a pair is first created,
pan is set to hard left and hard right, but the
channels can then be further modified indepen-
dently. When a pair is unlinked, the channels are
set to pan-center.

CURSOR / VALUE

When the LCD display is in mixer mode, the
CURSOR knob scrolls left and right over the 20
inputs displayed in the LCD. The current input
flashes. As a shortcut, you can push the CURSOR
knob to toggle between the top row (analog inputs)
and bottom row (digital inputs). The VALUE knob
changes the current mix parameter for the
currently flashing input. In some cases, such as
Gain and Pan, the LCD will "zoom" to the enlarged
horizontal fader while you adjust it with the VALUE
knob. After you stop adjusting, the LCD will return
to the mixer display.

STAND-ALONE OPERATION

All settings, including all mix settings and global
settings, are saved in the Traveler's memory, and
they remain in effect even when the Traveler is not
connected to a computer. This allows you to use the
Traveler as a stand-alone 8-bus mixer. You can
make adjustments to any setting at any time from
the front panel.
