Stereo output
The stereo output is a special “channel”:
Press the STEREO key briefly to view the current
settings of the stereo output buss:
• The current physical fader value and internal fader
value are displayed (as with “Internal and physical
faders” on page 45). These follow the same rules as
channel faders, as set in the
OPTIONS menu.
• The stereo dynamics processor setting is displayed,
if this has been assigned as described in the Effec-
tor section (“Using EFFECT 2 as a stereo dynam-
ics processor” on page 82).
• The cursor is in the OUTPUT field, and cannot
be moved.
Stereo output selection
This is the only user-selectable parameter on this
screen. It allows you to perform a direct audition on
track pairs.
1 Use the dial to select between STEREO , and
the four track pairs ( Trk1/2 , Trk3/4 ,
Trk5/6 , Trk7/8 ).
When a track pair is selected, the signal output
from the
STEREO OUTPUT connectors (analog
and coaxial digital) will be the signals from the
appropriate tracks.
NOTE
When track pairs are selected as the source for the stereo
outputs, the channel faders and controls have no effect on
the volume, and neither do the stereo faders. Any channel
EQ and effects are bypassed, as is any stereo dynamic
processor assignment and setting (“Setting up EFFECT 2”
on page 82).
If STEREO is selected as the monitoring source (see
“Monitoring” on page 38), the tracks selected here can be
heard through the MONITOR OUTPUTS and PHONES
as well as through the STEREO outputs. The MONITOR
control can be used to adjust the monitoring level, but this
does not affect the level from the stereo outputs.
If a track pair is selected for stereo output here, the sends
to the effect and aux loops are not affected, and remain as
they were before the selection.
