Two-Man Operation - Midas PRO SERIES Owner's Manual

Two-man operation

The control centre can be operated by two people simultaneously. In this mode of
operation the 4-channel input bay is designated as area B, and operates independently
of the 12-channel input bay, which is always area A. (You can have the same channel
selected simultaneously in both bays.)
This feature can also be used by a single operator if they require somewhere to
store important channels. In this case, area B can be used in the same way a
'channel 25' would be used on an analogue console.
The following diagram shows the areas designated as A and B during two-man
operation and also shows the location of the area B button. All other parts of the
control surface are common to both areas.
Figure 19: Two-man operation
VCA/POP groups can be pre-selected to populate area A or B, and a single group of
inputs can have members in both areas of the control surface. An operator can then
recall them to their own area to work on.
Note: When operating in area B, remember to select the B option, where appropriate,
particularly in the monitor section. Also note that solo B (also for talkback) is totally
independent of area B, which is used for navigation only.
>> To set up the control centre for two-man operation
