5 – Channel modules : Aux and buss setup
68 TASCAM DM-3200 User’s Manual
Aux and buss setup
The third page of the MODULE screens provides a way
to view and make the aux send settings and the buss
panning between odd- and even-numbered busses
(channel modules only in stereo mode, not surround
mode when the buss pan follow mode is off—see
“BUSS PAN Follows ST PAN” on page 34). Note
also the on-screen
FLW button below the pan pot on
the right of the screen, which links buss and stereo
panning.
Use the cursor keys to move the “control box” of four
PODs up and down.
For unlinked aux sends, the four POD encoders are
used to set the aux send levels for the individual aux
sends.
For linked aux sends, the PODs are paired, with the
left encoder being used to set the pan (or balance in
the case of linked channels) position between the two
aux sends, and the right encoder setting the level.
Use the cursor keys and
ENTER key to set the pre/
post aux send position.
NOTE
Aux 1-2 have an extra option here. In addition to being
able to select the pre- and post-fader aux send position,
channels 1 through 32 can also use the “return” signal
(“Input routing” on page 47) as an aux send, allowing
recorder returns to be used as a cue feed to the studio,
etc.
Aux send screens (unlinked) Pressing the
dedicated
AUX function keys brings up appropriate
screens which allow the viewing and setting of aux
sends for all channels:
Moving the cursor around the screen highlights four
on-screen controls where the POD encoders are used
to set the values. In the case of linked channels, the
left POD of the pair is used to set the level.
The POD 2 key is used to select the screen for the
even-numbered aux send level setting.
Copying settings between aux sends and
channel levels At the bottom of the
screen is a facility that allows the copying of channel
levels to the aux sends, or the other way round. This
is useful when setting up a studio cue monitor mix
based on the channel settings.
Use POD 2 to select between
CH>AUX and AUX>CH,
and press
ENTER. A popup appears to confirm this
setting (
ENTER to confirm, cursor keys to cancel).
