CL-9 Level Control to perform “X” actions in the Setup Menu. That is, cancel and exit menus. Press
and hold the CL-9 Level Control to immediately return to the 788T Main LCD Display.
Soloing Inputs. Outputs, or Tracks
The CL-9 allows the Sound Mixer to quickly solo any input, output, or track. To solo an input in the
headphone monitor, press and release the Rotary Encoder for that input. To solo an output, select
Output Mode, then press and release the respective output’s Rotary Encoder.
See CL-9 Mode for
details. To solo a track in the headphone monitor, press and hold the Track Button for one second
or longer. Soloing a track also enters the CL-9 Input-to-Track Routing Mode. See CL-9 Input-to-Track
Routing for details.
The CL-9 also allows for quick access to return monitoring. See Returns and CL-9 Communications for
details.
EQ
Connecting the CL-9 to the 788T grants the Sound Mixer access to the 788T’s parametric EQ. The EQ
settings are adjustable on each input and are applied pre-fade. EQ is not available with Sampling
Rates at 88.2 kHz or above.
All EQ settings are disabled and unavailable when the CL-9 is disconnected.
EQ settings are adjusted from the CL-9 surface. The EQ Frequency, EQ Gain, and EQ Q-Factor of
each input is adjusted when the respective mode is active.
See CL-9 Modes for details. EQ settings are
displayed on the 788T’s main LCD display when an EQ Mode is active.
EQ Frequency is adjusted from 30 Hz to 10 kHz in 10 Hz steps and from 10.1 kHz to 20 kHz in 100
Hz steps. EQ Gain is adjusted from -12 to +12 dB in 1 dB increments. The EQ Q-factor is adjustable
from 0.1 to 10 in 0.1 steps. An input’s EQ setting can also be bypassed from any of the EQ Modes.
The EQ is off when bypassed, the EQ settings are stored but are completely removed from the signal
path. Bypass allows the user to quickly compare the difference of the input with and without the EQ
settings applied.
Pan
Access to the 788T’s Pan controls are only available when a CL-9 is attached. Pan settings are adjust-
able on each input and each input can be panned continuously between the Left and Right Tracks.
An input must be routed post-fade to both Left and Right Tracks for full continuous pan between
Left and Right.
Pan Settings are disabled when the CL-9 is disconnected.
An input has a total of 37 possible pan positions between Left and Right. That is, 18 Left positions,
one Center position that sends the input equally to both L and R Tracks, and 18 Right positions. Pan
settings are displayed on the 788T Main LCD display when Pan is the active mode.
See CL-9 Modes
for details.
Encoder Acceleration
Each input’s Rotary Encoder can control various parameters of that input, depending on the active
CL-9 Mode (
see CL-9 Mode Basics ). Since Trim Gain and EQ Frequency Modes have a larger range
than other modes, the “acceleration” of the Rotary Encoders in these modes can be confi gured. “Ac-
