Reference Manual

 If the MIX/MATRIX bus is a stereo bus

You can link the main parameters of two adjacent odd/even-numbered MIX/MATRIX

buses. If the send-destination MIX/MATRIX bus is assigned as stereo, the left knob of the

two adjacent TO MIX/MATRIX SEND LEVEL knobs will operate as the TO MIX/MATRIX

PAN knob. (If BALANCE mode is selected in the TO STEREO/MONO window, it will

operate as a BALANCE knob).

NOTE

• For an INPUT channel (monaural), the right knob will adjust the common send level to the two

MIX/MATRIX buses, and the left knob will adjust the panning between the two MIX/MATRIX

buses. Rotating the left TO MIX/MATRIX SEND PAN knob counter-clockwise will increase the

amount of signal sent to the odd-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus, and rotating it clockwise will

increase the amount sent to the even-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus.

• For a ST IN channel (stereo), if BALANCE mode has been selected in the TO STEREO/MONO

window (8ch), the right knob adjusts the common send level for the two MIX/MATRIX buses, and

the left knob adjusts the volume balance of the left and right signals sent to the two MIX/MATRIX

buses. Rotating the left TO MIX/MATRIX SEND BAL knob counter-clockwise will increase the

amount of signal sent from the L-channel to the odd-numbered MIX/MATRIX bus, and rotating it

clockwise will increase the amount sent from the R-channel to the even-numbered MIX/MATRIX

bus. If PAN mode has been selected in the TO STEREO/MONO window (8ch), the left knob will

function as the PAN knob. The right knob will function as send level, just as in BALANCE mode.

MIX SEND/MATRIX SEND window

1 ALL PRE button

Sets the send point to PRE. (The send point is the point at which signals are sent from

all send-source channels — including the input and output channels — to the selected

send destination.) At this time, the PRE/POST button will light.

2 ALL POST button

Sets the send point to POST. (The send point is the point at which signals are sent from

all send-source channels — including the input and output channels — to the selected

send destination.) At this time, the PRE/POST button will turn off.

3 Send destination indicator

Indicates the currently-selected send destination.

4 Send destination select buttons

Select MIX/MATRIX buses as the send destination.

5 Channel select button

Selects the send-source channel that you wish to control. The current channel icon,

number, and color appear on the button, and the channel name appears below the

button.

6 PRE/POST button

Switches the send point of each send-source channel between PRE and POST. If the

button is lit, the send point is set to PRE.

NOTE

• If the PRE/POST button is on, you can also select PRE EQ (immediately before the EQ) or PRE

FADER (immediately before the fader) for each MIX/MATRIX bus. This setting is made in the BUS

SETUP window (page 216).

• The PRE/POST button is not displayed for FIXED type MIX buses.

7 SEND ON/OFF button

Switches the send of each send-source channel on or off.

8 SEND PAN/BALANCE knob

Sets the panning or balance of signals sent to the stereo send destination. If the send

destination is monaural or set to FIXED, this knob will not appear.

If the send source is monaural, this knob functions as a PAN knob.

If the send source is stereo, you can use PAN/BALANCE mode setting

in the TO STEREO/MONO window to select whether PAN/BALANCE

will function as a PAN or BALANCE knob. The knob for the mode

selected here will appear.
