The following descriptions apply equally to the left and right hand
channels sections, which are mirror images of each other.
General
Each Fader Panel (three left and three right) contains 8 touch sensitive
linear motorised faders with associated electronic dot display scribbles and
local dynamic automation controls. This universal Fader Panel is used for
channels as well as master section functions.
The faders are very important devices in that all channel level control
functions may be accomplished using them as selected on the SELECT TO
FADERS panel described in the next section. Channel faders may be
switched to control:
• INPUT GAIN Mic, M/T and Line
• M/T SEND Level sent to M/T Bus
• GROUP TRIM Gain of M/T Bus Output to M/T Channel
• M/T MONITOR Level Sent to Independent M/T Monitor Bus
• CHANNEL Level Sent to Main L/R Output Busses
• SENDS Levels Sent to Effects & Foldback Outputs
• SUB LEVEL Levels Sent to the Sub Bus in Multi-Format Mode
Control Group function
Any fader can be linked or ‘slaved’ to be controlled by any one of the
centrally placed Control Group Faders. This works exactly like VCA
grouping in an analogue console. Slaves can be set to move according to
Control Groups by latching {SLAVE FADs MOVE} on the Monitor panel.
See 6-3-2 for {SLAVE FADs MOVE} function.
