Smoothing Function
Depending on the sound you are mixing, you may hear a slight step-
ping noise when you slide the faders. This indicates an overloaded
CPU. To resolve this problem, the VM200 features a Smoothing func-
tion that reduces CPU load to achieve smoother fader adjustment.
When the Smoothing function is set to Level 2, AUX1 and EFF1 are
linked and AUX2 and EFF2 are linked. Therefore, the level settings,
pair settings, and pan settings for AUX Send 1 and AUX Send 2 will
be applied to the level settings, pair settings, and pan settings for
EFF1 and EFF2. However, fader operation will be much finer.
Follow the steps below to set the Smoothing function. The default set-
ting is Smoothing “LEVEL 2.”
1.
Press the [CURRENT SCENE STATUS] key.
The VM200 displays the CURRENT SCENE STATUS function page.
2.
Use the EQ/HI-MID Gain rotary control to toggle between
Level1 and Level2.
Level 1: AUX Sends 1/2 and EFF Sends 1/2 are not linked, but
the faders’ smoothing function may be coarse, and depending on
the sound, you may hear a slight stepping noise when you slide
the faders in AUX Send mode.
Level 2: AUX Send 1 and EFF Send 1 are linked, and AUX Send 2
and EFF Send 2 are linked. The level settings, pair setting, and
pan setting for AUX Send 1 and AUX Send 2 will be applied to the
level settings, pair settings, and pan settings for EFF1 and EFF2.
However, fader operation will be much smoother and you should
not hear any noise.
3.
Press the [ENTER] key to confirm the setting.
Note: If the EQ Enable parameter in the CURRENT SCENE STATUS page is set
to “1–16,” the Smoothing function remains Level 2 even if you can change
to Level 1 on the display.
