Reference Manual

Linking the desired input channels

This section explains how to link specific parameters of input channels.

NOTE

Channel link settings are saved as part of the scene.

1. In the Function Access Area, press the CH JOB

button.

2. Press the CH LINK button to open the CH LINK

MODE popup window.

In this popup window you can view the channels that are

linked and specify the parameters that will be linked. The

window includes the following items.

NOTE

You can also access this window by simultaneously

pressing and then releasing the [SEL] keys of two or more

channels that will be linked.

1 Channel display field

When you create a link group, the corresponding channels will be highlighted. If there are two or

more link groups, each group is shown in a different color.

NOTE

Left and right of the ST IN channel are always linked.

2 LINK PARAMETER field

Use the buttons in this field to select the parameters that you want to link. You can do this

independently for each link group.

3 SEND PARAMETER field

If you have turned on the MIX ON, MIX SEND, MATRIX ON, or MATRIX send buttons in the

LINK PARAMETER field, use the buttons in this field to specify the send-destination bus(es).

NOTE

In the case of the CL3/CL1, faders that do not exist on those models will not be shown.

3. Use the buttons in the LINK PARAMETER field to select the parameter(s) that will

be linked (multiple selections are allowed).

The table below lists the parameters you can select in the LINK PARAMETER field.

NOTE

• If you link Dynamics 1 or 2 for two or more input channels, the parameter values will be linked,

but the key-in signals are not linked. For details about dynamics, see “EQ and Dynamics” on

page 56.

• If you turn on the EQ button or DYNAMICS 1/2 button, library recall operations will also be linked.

• The HA analog gain setting and the fader operation will be linked and will maintain the same

relative level difference between the channels.
