that will allow automated levels to be offset. For example if you have a substitute musician and you need to adjust
the overall level without changing the programmed fades, you could use the trim control.

When the Trims LED is green selection of Inputs, Bus Lvls, Outputs, Aux Out, or VGroups, will set the faders to
control the Trims for these controls. If the Trims LED is dark, the faders will control the Levels for these controls
when selected.

EQ

The EQ button [9] lets you edit the EQ settings.

The CueMixer can display and edit up to 6 parametric EQ bands. If you have the Matrix3 configured for more than
6 bands of EQ, only the first 6 can be controlled and edited from the CueMixer. When editing EQ from the CueMixer
you use the faders to set parameters plus you can bypass individual bands and set delay times. Control of Dynamics
is not supported on the CueMixer.

Isolate

Most of the functions that are available in CueStation software are accessible from the CueMixer. The third row of
buttons [16-23] is used to Isolate a channel. These take individual channels out of the automation system for
manual control. There is a second function to this row that becomes active when you are editing EQ as these buttons
are used to select a channel to be edited.

Mute

The fourth row of buttons [24-31] is used to Mute channels. These mute the audio on individual channels and function
the same as the on-screen mute button in the CueStation software. There is a second function to this row that becomes
active when you are editing EQ. They are used to mute individual bands of the EQ. When the EQ button is pressed
the faders become controls for the EQ and the fourth row buttons allow you to bypass individual bands, bypass the
delay, or bypass all of the EQ bands.

User Buttons

The User A and User B buttons [10, 11] on the CueMixer can be programmed in CueStation to recall assigned cues.
Pressing a User A or B button at any time will fire the assigned cue. There is also a User A mode that is entered by
pressing (and releasing) Shift and then pressing the User A button. When you are in User A mode, the LED next to
the User A button is lit. In User A mode the bottom two rows of buttons can be mapped to fire any cue id. CueMixer
uses the page select buttons to switch between sets of these cue assignments (see the section on Navigation).
There are 16 pages in the system allowing you to map 256 cues to individual buttons. Duplicate assignments are
allowed.
