Chapter 6: CM402T Center Section
The CM402T module (Figure 6-1) is located to the left of the CM401T Master Section
that contains the Center Strip. The purpose of the CM402T is to expand access to
Strip functions so they are more readily available than from the normal Strip. It in-
cludes the following functional sections, from top to bottom:
• Bus Routing and Track Arming Panels
See Bus Routing Panel on page 86 and Track Arming on page 160.
• Aux, Input, and Filters knobsets with select panel
The Select Panel determines which functions of the Center Strip’s channel are
displayed on the knobsets.
• Dynamics and EQ knobsets
The Center Strip channel’s dynamics and EQ are always displayed on these
knobsets.
• Channel Select Panel
• Eight assignable Strip faders
These are traditionally used for Control Groups but any channel can be as-
signed using the same techniques used to assign a Strip on the CM408T.
Any Strip on the console can be displayed on the Center Strip by pressing its Wave key.
The Channel Select Panel can also assign channels to the Center Strip.
Once a Strip has been assigned to the Center Strip,
• reassigning the Swap or Main channels on the original Strip is not reflected in
the Center Strip.
• reassigning the Swap or Main channels on the Center Strip is not reflected in
the original Strip.
• the original Strip can still control all its functions.
