Setting a channel's send level and send point to Flex Buses

Preparing to adjust Flex Bus send levels using PARAM VIEW on Fader
1. Press [INPUT] or [MULTI IN] in the SECTION area to select the type of
input you want to set up.
2. Press one of the FLEX BUS 1 to 6 buttons in PARAM VIEW on Fader to
choose the Flex Bus to which you want to send signal from one or more
channels. To select from Flex Buses 7–12, press FLEX BUS [1] to [6] while
holding down [SHIFT].

3. Use each channel's fader to send the desired amount of signal from the
channel to the displayed Flex Bus. If you don't want to send a channel's
signal to the displayed Flex Bus, turn its send all the way down.
Preparing to set Flex Bus sends using CHANNEL EDIT mode
1. Press [INPUT] or [MULTI IN] in the SECTION area to select the type of
input you want to set up.
2. Press the desired channel's [CH EDIT].
3. Use [PAGE UP]/[PAGE DOWN] to select the FLEX BUS screen.

4. Using CURSOR [UP]/[DOWN], select the first set of six Flex Buses, as
shown in figure on the left (Flex Buses 1 to 6).
5. Turn on the channel's SEND to any of the first six Flex Buses by pressing
[F1] to [F6]. This toggles the Flex Bus sends on and off—when a send is on,
B1, B2... is highlighted.
6. Set the channel's send level to each Flex Bus by turning its corresponding
V1 to V6 knob.

PARAM VIEW on Fader
allows you to view and set
the send levels to a
particular Flex Bus from all
of the channels at the same
time.
If you prefer, you can use
CH EDIT to set a single
channel's send level to all
of the Flex Buses—and
select a place within the
channel signal flow from
which the signal will be
sent—at the same time.
You can jump to this
screen by holding down the
channel's [CH EDIT] and
pressing the [FLEX BUS]
(STATUS button).
In this screenshot, Flex Buses
5 and 6 are stereo-linked, so
that they comprise a single
stereo Flex Bus send. When
Flex Buses are stereo-linked,
the V knob associated with
the higher-numbered Flex
Bus—in this case, [V6] for
Flex Bus 6—acts as a PAN
knob that sets the overall
panning of the pair of Flex
Buses from L63 to R63. If you
wish, you can set the
panning of the Flex Buses to
be the same as the panning
of the channel's send to the
main stereo mix. To do this,
activate the pan-slaving
feature by pressing the
linked Flex Buses' higher-
numbered F button—in the
screenshot, this would be
[F6] for Flex Bus 6. When the
panning of the pair of Flex
Buses follows the channel's
main mix panning, SLAVE is
highlighted.
