26 ARTEMIS Digital Broadcast Production Console Control Overview
ASSIGNING PATHS
Current Assign and Fader Touch
Indication shown on Meters
When an assign button is pressed the
associated meter highlights in a matching
colour to the blue assign button and blue
background for the fader display. This is
to further clarify which is the currently
assigned path, see Fig 3. Fader 25A
below left.
In addition when fader knobs are touched
the background of the associated upstand
meter highlights to indicate those paths,
see Fig 3. Fader 27B below right.
An important concept of Calrec
consoles is that of assignability.
This allows controls to be shared
amongst all paths, reducing physical
space requirements and providing
quick and familiar access.
When a path is assigned, certain areas of
the surface will display and allow control
of parameters of that assigned path.
For example, any wild assign panels
in Assign mode and the surround spill
panel will update to reflect values of the
currently assigned path. Assigning a
different path will alter these displayed
values.
Assigning a path
Above each fader is a display and two
buttons as shown in Fig. 1 below. The
display shows the name of the A and B
paths of each fader.
The upper section (green) shows the A
path and the lower section (yellow) shows
the B path.
The path that is currently being
controlled by the fader takes up a greater
percentage of the display area, is coloured
with the relevant colour and has the
relevant assign button lit.

FIG 2 - A/B PATH ASSIGNMENTS
FIG 3 - CURRENT ASSIGNMENT AND FADER TOUCH SHOWN ON METERS
To assign either of these paths, press the
relevant button above or below the display
(above for path A, below for path B).
The section of the display showing the
assigned path will turn blue to indicate the
current assignment. The relevant button
will also light up blue as confirmation.
The fader will now control the assigned
path as shown in Fig 2 (shown right).
Other areas of the surface that are set up
to respond to Assignments will display and
control parameters of this selected path.
