The Mixer Section

This chapter discusses how to assign and use the motorized,

touch sensitive faders, their associated channel switches above

the faders, their associated Select buttons and Rotary Encoders.
Page buttons and Bank buttons.
Before proceeding, it is important to briefly restate the Basic
Modes of Operation: User Assignable Mode vs. Special Mode.
In the User Assignable Mode, (the way the unit normally
powers-up), you, the user, can set it up how you want,
determining what kind of commands the controls send, and
how it controls your audio or video system.
In Special Mode, the audio or video system "takes over" the
MCS controller. The designers of the system (that is, the makers
of your audio or video system) have pre-determined how the
MCS works with your system.
This chapter relates to User Assignable Mode Only.
If your system switches the MCS Controller into Special Mode,
you will need to refer to the documentation included with the
system for operation instructions.

Attributes of the Mixer Section

The eight faders, their touch sensors, the encoders, and the
buttons above the faders, are all Bank Switchable.
There are four banks, selected with the Bank Switches.
The most obvious use for bank switching is to control software
with more audio channels than there are hardware faders.
That is, with Bank 1 selected, faders and mutes 1 through 8
control audio channels 1 through 8.
With Bank 2 selected, the same faders and mutes control audio
channels 9 through 16, etc.
