Page 22: Control Modes
R B - V H D M A 8 Control Modes There are two modes available to control the de-embedding channel routing process. These are the BANK mode and the CHANNEL mode. Bank Mode In Bank mode, audio is routed on a per bank basis, so when controlling de-embedding a group of audio is selected to be sent to a bank. -
Page 23: Channel Mode
R B - V H D M A 8 In this mode, the channels of the group are mapped directly to the bank channels. For example channel 1 in the selected group is de-embedded to channel 1 of the selected bank. -
