Pan Position
There’s a Pan Position Knob corresponding to each track (1 to 16, from left to right). Select any
knob and turn the Alpha Wheel to change the panning for that track. This provides a smooth
transition between pan settings. For instant changes, use the alphanumeric buttonpad to type a
value, then press Enter (0 is full left, and 127 is full right).You can use either method during
recording to record real-time pan changes into the song. The default pan position is 64 (straight
up). There are 15 positions between left and right.
Volume Level
There’s a Volume Fader corresponding to each track (1 to 16, from left to right). Select any fader
and turn the Alpha Wheel to change the volume for that track. This provides a smooth
transition. For instant changes, use the alphanumeric buttonpad to type a value from 0 to 127,
then press Enter .You can use either method during recording to record real-time volume
changes into the song. The default volume value is 127.
Track Status Indicators
Use the Up, Down, Left, and Right cursor arrows to position the cursor onto a Track Status
Indicator, then use the Alpha Wheel or Increment/Decrement buttons to change the track status.
Empty tracks are always in one of two states: recording (R) or non-recording(-). Tracks
containing data are always in one of three states: recording (R), playback (P), or muted (M).
The Track Status Indicators interact with the RecTrk (recording track) parameter. When you set
RecTrk to Mult (on the MAIN page), the status of all empty tracks changes from - to R, enabling
all of those tracks for recording. You can change one or more of these tracks to non-recording
tracks by selecting each track and using the Alpha Wheel or Increment/Decrement buttons to
change the R to -.
At times, you might end up with no recording tracks (for example, when Track 1 is a playback
track, and Tracks 2–16 are empty non-recording tracks). In this case, as soon as you change the
last R to M, P, or -, RecTrk reverts to None—unless RecTrk is Mult, in which RecTrk stays set to
Mult.
Quick-Mute Track Bank Indicator
This parameter appears as an underscore directly below the graphics for either the bank of
tracks 1–8 or tracks 9–16. It indicates which bank of eight tracks will respond to the Quick-Mute
feature, described with the M 1-8/9-16 soft buttons, below.
Soft Buttons on the MIX Page
Record, Play (Pause), Stop
These buttons work the same as they do on the MAIN page, described on page 3-22.
M 1-8 / M 9-16
When you’re on the MIX page, the mode buttons (Program, Setup, etc.) function as mute
buttons. These buttons mute either Tracks 1–8, or 9–16, depending on the position of the Quick-
Mute Track Bank Indicator (the horizontal line just below the Track Status Indicators). The line
