Sending Signals From Mix Channels And Stereo/Mono Channels To Matrix Buses; Using The Selected Channel Section - Yamaha M7CL Owner's Manual

Sending signals from MIX channels and STEREO/MONO channels to MATRIX buses

This section explains how to send the signal from a MIX or STEREO/MONO channel to MATRIX
buses 1–8. You can do this in either of the following two ways.

■ Using the SELECTED CHANNEL section

In this method, you use the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels to the MATRIX buses.
This method allows you to simultaneously control the signals sent from a specific MIX, STEREO (L/R), or MONO (C)
channel to all MATRIX buses.
■ Using the Centralogic section
In this method, you use the multifunction encoders of the Centralogic section to adjust the send levels to the MATRIX
buses. This method allows you to simultaneously control the signals sent from up to eight MIX, STEREO (L/R), or MONO
(C) channels to a specific MATRIX bus.
Using the SELECTED CHANNEL
section
Use the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section
to adjust the send level of the signals sent from the desired
MIX, STEREO (L/R) or MONO (C) channel to all
MATRIX buses.
1
Make sure that an output port is assigned
to the MATRIX bus to which you want to
send signals, and that an external device is
connected.
For details on assigning an output port to a MATRIX
bus refer to p. 95. For details on connecting an exter-
nal device, refer to p. 39.
2
Using the navigation keys, assign the
desired MIX channels 1–8 or 9–16 or the
STEREO/MONO channels to the Central-
ogic section.
3
Use the [SEL] keys of the Centralogic sec-
tion to select the input channel that will
send signals to the MATRIX buses.
The STEREO/MONO channels can also be selected
directly by using the [SEL] keys of the STEREO/
MONO MASTER section.
4
Press any one of the encoders of the
SELECTED CHANNEL section to access
the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen.
The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen will show
all the mix parameters of the corresponding channel.
Adjustments of send levels to the MATRIX buses is
done in the TO MATRIX field of this screen.

In this field you can switch the on/off status and adjust
the level of the signal sent from that channel to the
MATRIX buses.

TO MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob
This adjusts the send level of the signal sent from that
channel to the MATRIX buses. To adjust the send lev-
els, use the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL
section.
If the send-destination MATRIX bus is set to stereo,
the left knob of the two adjacent knobs will operate as
a PAN knob (for the STEREO channel or a stereo
MIX channel, the BALANCE knob). If the TO

will be dimmed.
C
TO MATRIX SEND ON/OFF button
Functions as an on/off switch for the signal sent from
that channel to the MATRIX bus.
An indication of "PRE" in black characters on a white
background is shown above these buttons only if the
signal send position is PRE (pre-fader). This indica-
tion is not shown for POST (post-fader). (For details
on how to switch between PRE and POST → p. 77).
