OUTPUT channels

Reference Manual

NOTE

• Press the SENDS ON FADER button to switch to SENDS ON FADER mode.

The faders in the Channel Strip section and Master section will move to the send levels of the

signals that are routed from each channel to the currently-selected MIX/MATRIX bus. The [ON]

keys will also change to the SEND ON status.

• If you press the currently-selected MIX/MATRIX bus select button again, cue monitoring will be

turned on for the corresponding MIX/MATRIX channel. This method is convenient if you want to

monitor the signal that is being sent to the selected MIX/MATRIX bus.

• You can assign the SENDS ON FADER function to a USER DEFINED key. This lets you quickly

switch to SENDS ON FADER mode for a specific MIX/MATRIX bus, and quickly switch back

again.

Correcting delay between channels (Output Delay)

This Output Delay function is useful when you want to correct the timing of output signals sent

to speakers that are located at a distance from each other.

OUTPUT PORT screen

1 Slot number/Card type

If an output channel of slot 1–2 is selected for operations, this area indicates the slot

number and the type of I/O card installed in that slot.

2 DELAY SCALE button

Press this button to open the DELAY SCALE window, in which you can select the unit for

the delay time.

3 Output Port

This is the type and number of the output port to which the channel is assigned.

4 Channel select button

Enables you to select the channel that you want to assign to the output port. The name

of the currently-selected channel is displayed.

5 Delay time knob

Sets the delay time of the output port. Press the knob to select it, and then operate the

[TOUCH AND TURN] knob. The millisecond delay time value is indicated above the

knob, and the delay time value in the units selected in the DELAY SCALE window is

indicated below the knob.

NOTE

If you have selected ms (millisecond) as the scale, the delay time value will not appear above the

knob.

STEP
