Channel Gain Faders/Gain Display – A traditional
looking “mixer fader” that adjusts preamp channel
gain. A text box below the fader indicates the actual
channel gain setting in decibels.
Standard gain range is 8 dB to 69 dB. A range of
8 dB t o 80 dB is a no-charge option. Gain is
segmented in 1 dB steps. The Up and Down
keyboard arrow keys can also be used to adjust the
channel gain in 1dB steps.
Meter Preferences Dialog – The Meter Preferences
dialog box provides for customization of meter
display and functions. It can be accessed three
different ways: Shortcut Control-M, right-clicking
the meter display in the channel strip, or from the
pull down menus (Setup>Preferences>Metering).
You can select either Meter Scale dBu (Usually for
an analog system) or dBFS for a digital system.
Peak Hold Time affects the numerical level
indicator abo ve the meter and the floating line over
it.
Link Assignment – The Link parameter provides a
Gain and Mute linking utility. Linking applies to Gain
and Mute parameters only; no other parameters are
linkable.
The LINK button links and unlinks a channel from a
selected “link group”. There are ten selectable link
groups that can be chosen from the drop down box
next to the LINK button or the Link Matrix. W h e n a
link group is chosen, the LINK button is
automatically selected and illuminates red. One link
group can be assigned per channel. If no link group
is selected, a depressed LINK switch will effectively
do nothing.
Linked Gain – Linked Gain faders move together
maintaining the same distance they had when first
linked together. Once one fader reaches the upper
or lower extreme, the other faders in the same link
group stop moving in that direction.
Linked Gains can be trimmed by holding down the
Alt key while using the left mouse button. When the
Alt key is released, the channel reverts to linked
mode.
Linked Mute – Linked Mute parameters will turn on
and off together unless “Mute linked channels” is
unchecked in the Preferences dialog box (Setup>
Preferences>“Mute linked channels”). If this box is
unchecked, the mute parameters will act
independently just like the o t h e r parameters.
Scribble Strip (right-click on scribble strip)
A text box in which channels can be named, and
notes can be written and stored. See the screenshot
on the previous page.
To name multiple channels quickly, “Prev” and
“Next” buttons allow the user to scroll through
channels without closing the dialog box. If a channel
has been re-named from the default, the new
Channel Name will now be displayed in the Unit
Name box. The Naming Window can also be
accessed from the pull-down menus (Edit>Channel
Naming).
