V4HD's 16 output pairs. Busses are identified by
their output pair destination. To access a mix bus,
press the left/right PAGE buttons until the Mix bus
parameter (Figure 12-5) flashes. Turn the VALUE
knob to choose the desired bus.
Input Bank
To access an input bank, press the left/right PAGE

and then turn the VALUE knob to choose the
desired input bank. NOTE: only banks that are
currently enabled (as shown in Figure 8-1 on
page 72) will appear as choices when you turn the
knob. In stand-alone mode, you can enable or
disable banks using the front panel LCD as
explained in "Bank Enable" on page 99.

Channel settings
Mix parameters
Mix parameters are settings such as channel
volume (gain), pan, mute/solo, etc. To access the
mix parameters for the currently displayed bank,
press the left/right PAGE buttons until the Mix
parameter (Figure 12-5) flashes and then turn the
VALUE knob to choose the desired parameter. You
can then modify that setting for each individual
input channel, as explained in the next section.
Channel Settings
A channel setting is an individual input channel's
setting for volume (gain), pan, mute/solo, etc. To
access a channel's current setting for the currently
displayed mix parameter, press the left/right PAGE
buttons until one of the Channel Settings
(Figure 12-5) flashes. Use the left/right CURSOR
buttons to move among the 8 displayed channels
(for the currently chosen Input Bank as shown in
Figure 12-5), and then turn the VALUE knob to
adjust the value or setting for the parameter. Mix
parameters are explained briefly below:

When a pair of inputs are linked, all of
their mix settings become linked (gain,
solo, etc.) When the pair is first created,
pan is set to hard left and hard right,
but the channels can then be further
modified independently. When a pair
is unlinked, the channels are set to pan-
center.
