Procedure

Here's how to use the Tracking Recall function.
1. Access the SCENE function TRACKING RECALL
screen.
In the TRACKING RECALL screen, tracking can be
turned on/off for each channel, and you can specify
the offset value that will be applied to each channel
for which Tracking Recall is on.
2. Press a MODE button (INPUT 1-48, INPUT 49-96,
MIX, MATRIX) so that the desired channels appear
in the screen.
3. Click the ON button of the channels for which you
want to use tracking.
At this point, the fader position of a channel that you
have turned on by clicking will be memorized as the
reference position. Thus, the offset value will be set
to 0.
Hint
By clicking the SET ALL or CLEAR ALL buttons in
the upper right of the screen, you can enable/defeat
tracking for all channels (including channels that are
not currently displayed in the screen).
4. Raise or lower the faders of channels for which
tracking is turned on, to specify their offset value.
Move the front panel faders from the reference posi-
tions that were memorized in step 3. The distance of
this movement will be set as the offset value. The off-
set value can also be specified by moving the sliders
in the screen. However if you use the sliders in the
screen to specify the offset, the front panel faders will
not change position.
The offset value can be specified in a range of –15–0–
+15 dB. After you have specified the desired offset
values, you can turn on the OFFSET LOCK button in
the screen to make the sliders turn gray, disabling any
further change in the offset values.
If you move the front panel faders while OFFSET
LOCK is on, the offset value will not be re-set even
if you then defeat OFFSET LOCK. This is because
18
you may wish to defeat OFFSET LOCK in order to
make manual changes in the screen. If you move
the faders after defeating OFFSET LOCK, the offset
will be calculated from the reference position of
step 3 before tracking is recalled (an offset value of
0 dB), and set accordingly.
5. In the upper left of the screen, click the TRACKING
RECALL button to switch it to ENABLE.
In this example, the Tracking function was enabled
in step 5. However, the TRACKING RECALL button
can be operated at any time.
6. Recall the desired scene.
The offset values you specified in step 4 will be added
to the value of each fader in the recalled scene.
The faders of channels that are set to Recall Safe will
not change even if Tracking Recall is turned on. Nor
will the offset value change.
If the ENABLE button of the TRACKING RECALL
area is off, the specified offset value will not be
added to the recalled faders. The offset value will
return to zero when recall occurs unless the OFF-
SET LOCK button is on. If you want to set a specific
scene to the reference position (offset 0), you
should turn off the ENABLE button of the TRACK-
ING RECALL area and also turn off the OFFSET
LOCK button before recalling the scene.
If the ENABLE button of the TRACKING RECALL
area is on, and you recall a scene not set to Recall
Safe, the fader values that were stored in the scene
will be offset by the specified value for each channel
for which the Tracking function is on, and the fad-
ers will move to the closest possible location for the
calculated value.
In the case of channels that are newly paired due to
a recall, offset will be considered to be off unless the
ON buttons of those two channels are both turned
on, and the offset value will not be added. If the ON
buttons of both channels are on, then the offset
value will be the average of the two values.
If the OFFSET LOCK button is off for a channel that
is recalled from the channel library, the offset value
will be 0.
