APPENDIX B
Using an External Fader
Controller or Mixer
This appendix describes how your Avid system supports the
following external fader controllers or mixer for Audio Gain
Automation recording:
• JL Cooper FaderMaster Pro MIDI automation controller. This low-cost
unit allows you to make fine adjustments to audio clips. This unit
does not support “flying faders,” which means that the faders
don’t move automatically as you record audio gain information
and they must be manually zeroed prior to recording. For
information on setting the faders manually, see “Position Indicator
Lights” on page 591.
• JL Cooper MCS-3000X MIDI automation controller. This unit
supports touch-sensitive flying faders. While recording gain, the
faders automatically move. You can grab a fader and move it
during an automation gain recording to quickly punch in a small
change in volume.
• Yamaha 01V digital mixing console. This unit is a full-feature digital
mixer that also supports Audio Gain Automation with flying
faders. The faders are not touch sensitive. The Avid system uses
the MIDI controller portion of the Yamaha 01V mixer for
automation gain control.
