Other Tips

1. GROUP ASSIGN
The default settings of USER DEFINED KEY bank F is for INPUT GROUP ASSIGN functions. Keys 1-8 are for Input
FADER GROUPS, and Keys 9-16 are for Input MUTE GROUPS. To assign a channel to a group, select the channel
and press the relevant USER DEFINED KEY in BANK F. The USER DEFINED KEY will then light up to confirm the
assignment.
NOTE:
A Channel cannot be in more than one FADER GROUP at a time, and cannot be in more than one MUTE GROUP at a
time.
2. DCA Faders
To have DCA (or analog VCA) style Fader Masters, first check the [INPUT FADER MASTER] box near the top of the
FADER GROUP display page. Then choose one of the 4 REMOTE FADER LAYERS (by pressing the [REMOTE] DIS-
PLAY ACCESS button, and select USER ASSIGNABLE LAYER as the TARGET. After that, all the GROUP MASTER
FADERS can be selected to appear on chosen REMOTE LAYER, along with any other channels selected by the user.
3. MUTE MASTER Switches
USER DEFINED KEY bank G, by default, consists of the twelve MUTE GROUP MASTER switches. But first the
INPUT MUTE MASTER and OUTPUT MUTE MASTER boxes must be checked in the GROUP display menu.
4. Remote Control of AD824 or AD8HR Units
To remote control the Head-Amp settings of these units. Select HA as the REMOTE FUNCTION in the REMOTE
page of the SETUP menu. Then select which slots are used for which units (the Unit ID is displayed on the front panel
of the remote AD units). Assign one of the ENCODER MODE [ASSIGN#] buttons to HA Gain so the input Gain can
be controlled from the Channel Encoders. PHANTOM POWER can be controlled from the HA CTRL page in the
PHASE/INSERT menu.
5. SCENE MEMORY Auto Update
In the PREFERENCES1 page of the SETUP menu, the Scene MEM Auto Update option can be found. When this is
switched on, the last mixing settings are memorized just before the next Scene is recalled.
Then when a previous Scene is recalled, its last settings are recalled first. Press RECALL again to access the original
scene settings. So two memories for each scene are kept: the original settings, and the last settings.
6. Return to Current Scene
When scrolling through the SCENE MEMORY list, it is easy to forget which is the current Scene. To return to display-
ing the current Scene, press both SCENE [UP] and [DOWN] buttons simultaneously.
7. USER DEFINED KEYS
Here are some suggested uses for these keys, apart from the defaults:
• Scene +1/-1 Recall: to recall the next or the previous Scene.
• OSC On/Off: to control the internal Oscillator.
• Talkback Assign: to choose the talkback destination.
• FL CH/Port: alternate between seeing the channel name and the input port name in the FL display above the faders.
• Studio Manager: open and close various windows in the DM2000 editor on PC or Mac.
8. Initialize Memories
To erase all the memories in the console and return it to is initial settings, first switch off the console. Then switch it on
again while holding the SCENE [STORE] button. Choose INITIALIZE to erase all the libraries and return to the
default settings.
