Sending The Signal From An Input Channel To A Mix Bus; Using The Selected Channel Section - Yamaha M7CL Owner's Manual

Sending the signal from an input channel to a MIX bus

This section explains how to send the signal from an input channel to MIX buses 1–16.
MIX buses are used mainly for the purpose of sending signals to foldback speakers on stage, or
to effect processors. You can send a signal from an input channel to a MIX bus in the following
three ways.

■ Using the SELECTED CHANNEL section

In this method, you use the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels to the MIX buses.
When using this method, the signals sent from a specific input channel to all MIX buses can be adjusted simultaneously.
■ Using the Centralogic section
In this method, you use the multifunction encoders of the Centralogic section to adjust the send levels to the MIX buses.
When using this method, the signals sent from eight consecutive input channels to a specific MIX bus can be adjusted
simultaneously.
■ Using the faders (SENDS ON FADER mode)
In this method, you switch the M7CL to SENDS ON FADER mode, and use the faders of the top panel to adjust the send
levels to the MIX buses. When using this method, the signals sent from all input channels to a specific MIX bus can be
adjusted simultaneously.
Using the SELECTED CHANNEL
section
Here's how you can use the encoders of the SELECTED
CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels of the signals
sent from a specific input channel to all MIX buses.
1
Make sure that an output port is assigned
to each MIX bus to which you want to send
signals, and that your monitor system or
external effect processor etc. is connected
to the corresponding output port.
For details on assigning an output port to a MIX bus
refer to p. 105. For details on connecting an external
device, refer to p. 46.
2
Use the [SEL] keys of the top panel to
select the input channel that will send sig-
nals to the MIX buses.
3
Press any one of the encoders of the
SELECTED CHANNEL section to access
the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen.
The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen will show
all the mix parameters of the corresponding input
channel. Adjustments of send levels to the MIX/
MATRIX buses is done in the TO MIX/TO MATRIX
field of this screen.

channel to MIX bus. To adjust the send levels, use the
encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section.
If the send-destination MIX bus is set to stereo, the left
knob of the two adjacent knobs will operate as a PAN
knob (for a ST IN channel, the BALANCE knob). If
the TO MIX SEND ON/OFF button (
