As mentioned previously, two adjoining mono input channels may be linked together into a single stereo
channel strip. This is ideal for stereo input sources such as keyboards, submixer outputs, vocal processors
and more. When linked, the level control, EQ, gate/compressor, etc. are adjusted with a single set of controls!
Linking channels is easy. After tapping a Channel ID button, you will see an option to “Link Ch X over Ch X”.
Tap it! A popover will display asking you to conrm. A visual dierence between unlinked and linked
channels is displayed below. Follow the same steps outlined above to unlink channels.
Odd-numbered channels will link to the next (even-numbered) channel [e.g. 1-2, 3-4, etc],
while even-numbered channels will link to the previous (odd-numbered) channel
[e.g. 10-9, 12-11, etc].
The new linked channel will take on all of the attributes [EQ settings, gate and compressor
settings, delay and reverb settings, etc.] of the tapped Channel ID button. In other words,
if you link channel 1 over 2, the resulting stereo channel will take on all of the settings of
channel 1. However, if you link channel 2 over channel 1, the resulting stereo channel will
take on all of the settings of channel 2.
Mic pre gain, 48V, source and digital trim are not linked and independent. This is useful in
multiple situations. Stereo overhead mics on a drum set require dierent gain levels to adjust
for crash versus ride, for one example. Or perhaps two mics are in front of a guitar cabinet, one
condenser and one dynamic. Here you would be able to enable 48v on one, leaving it o for the
other, even though the channel is linked. Perhaps a visual will help. See below for examples of
unlinked input routing, linked input routing (left side) and linked input routing (right side).
