Event Automation
Both the D32XD and D16XD support Scene Automation. Pre-
viously, only the D32XD supported dynamic Event Automa-
tion.
The D16XD’s FADER/PAN/AUTOMATION page mode has
been changed to include the same dynamic Event Automa-
tion found on the D32XD (→Manual: p.103). The D16XD is
not equipped with motorized faders, so in order to see the
dynamic automation taking place, use the Mixer View
(→Manual: p.107) or Meter Trk View (→Manual: p.97)
This change adds Automation and Event List pages
(→Manual: p.104).
Please also refer to the Operation section (→Manual: p.54).
3c. FADER/PAN/AUTOMATION
3c-1. Fader Pan
Refer to 3c-1. Fader Pan (→Manual: p.107).
3c-2. Automation
You can turn automation on and record the realtime changes
you make to the mixer settings while the song is playing back
or recording.
The recorded automation can then automatically change the
mixer settings during playback or recording.
