Reference Manual

Using the Centralogic section

This method lets you use the multifunction knobs (in the Centralogic section) to

simultaneously adjust the send levels from the eight channels selected in the Centralogic

section to the desired MATRIX bus.

NOTE

• If you want to monitor signals being sent to a specific MATRIX bus, use the Bank Select keys to

access the corresponding MATRIX channel in the Centralogic section, and then press the [CUE]

key for that MATRIX channel.

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

on for the related MATRIX channel. This method is convenient if you want to monitor a signal that

is being sent to the selected MATRIX bus.

• In the OVERVIEW screen, you can also adjust the send level of the signal sent to the MIX/

MATRIX buses. To do so, press the SEND LEVEL knob for the TO MIX/MATRIX that you want to

adjust, and then use the multifunction knob in the Centralogic section to adjust it.

MATRIX SEND screen

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.)

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.)

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.

7 SEND ON/OFF button

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

STEP

1. Assign an output port to the MATRIX bus to which you want to send signals, and

connect an external device to that output port.

2. Use the Bank Select keys in the Centralogic section to select the channels that you

want to control.

3. In the OVERVIEW screen, press the TO MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob to select the

desired send-destination MATRIX bus, and then press it again.

4. Set the SEND ON/OFF button to ON, and use the SEND LEVEL knob to adjust the

send level.
