Surround pan
6 Use the knobs and buttons in the lower part of
the screen to adjust the volume, delay, on/off
status, and cue for each surround channel.
For details on these knobs and buttons, refer to SURR
PARAM screen (
➥ p.309) in the Reference section.
7 In the MIX section, make the [MIX MASTER]
key light, and turn on the MIX [ON] keys of all
MIX buses that will be used as surround buses.
The signal of each surround bus is now sent from the
corresponding MIX OUT jack.
Controlling surround pan
Here’s how to control surround pan for two adjacent input channels (or ST IN/FX RTN channels L and R).
Note
• Before you continue with the following procedure, you must
select the desired surround mode and connect MIX OUT
jacks 1–8 or MIX OUT jacks 9–16 to an appropriate play-
back system, as described in “Basic settings for surround
buses” (
➥ p.144).
• If you use 5.1ch or 6.1ch surround mode, connect the LFE
(Low Frequency Effects) channel signal to a dedicated sub-
woofer for the low frequencies. However, simply switching
the surround mode does not change the EQ (filter) settings.
As necessary, use the EQ (LPF) of the MIX channel
assigned to the LFE channel to cut the high-frequency por-
tion of the signal according to the frequency response of the
subwoofer you are using.
1 In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, repeatedly
press the [PAN/ROUTING] key to access the
SURR PARAM screen (PAN/ROUTING
function).
The SURR PARAM screen always shows surround pan
settings for two channels.
2 Use the channel selection area to select the
input channels whose surround pan settings
you want to edit.
Two adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered chan-
nels (or ST IN/FX RTN channels L and R) will be
displayed.
3 Use the SURROUND BUS ON/OFF buttons
located around the surround pan grid to select
the surround buses to which the input chan-
nel will be sent.
The SURROUND BUS ON/OFF buttons are on/off
switches for the signal sent from the input channel to
each surround bus.
Hint
You can do the same thing by pressing a [SEL] key to select
an input channel, making the MIX section [MIX SEND] key
light, and then turning on the MIX [ON] key for the desired sur-
round buses.
4 Use any of the following methods to adjust the
surround pan of the selected channel.
• Using the mouse or track pad
Move the pointer into the surround pan grid of the
channel you want to control, and drag the yellow O
symbol forward/backward/left/right. (The symbol will
turn red while you are dragging it.) Alternatively, you
can click a desired location within the surround pan
grid to move the surround pan to that location.
• Using the pan buttons around the surround pan
area
If you want to quickly move the channel signal to the
location of a speaker, click one of the pan buttons (e.g.,
L, R, C) shown around the edge of the surround pan
grid.
• Using the CURSOR [√]/[®]/[π]/[†] keys
Move the cursor to the surround pan grid and press the
[ENTER] key; the O symbol will turn red.
In this condition, you can use the CURSOR [√]/[®]
keys to move surround pan left/right, or the CURSOR
[π]/[†] keys to move it forward/backward, in a range
of eight steps. By performing this operation while hold-
ing down the [SHIFT] key, you can quickly move
surround pan in a range of 32 steps. To finalize the sur-
round pan adjustment, press the [ENTER] key once
again.
