M-Audio FireWire 1814

Output Channels – Virtual faders control the individual channel output levels. The
output faders correspond to their respective analog hardware outputs. When the
main/aux button is set to main, the Output Channel gets its signal from the bus
assignments selected on the mixer page. (See “Main/Aux Button,” below.)
Balance Controls – The bal control allows you to adjust the balance of the associated
pair’s stereo output.
Linking - Stereo pairs can be linked together with the link button. Once the channel is
linked (the button turns blue), grabbing and moving one fader will move both faders in
unison.
Main/Aux Button – When the main/aux button is in the main position (the button turns
blue), the associated analog or S/PDIF outputs carry their respective bus signals, as
determined by the routing selected on the mixer page. When the main/aux button is in
the aux position, the button turns green. The associated analog or S/PDIF output pair
receives the signal routed to the aux L and aux R busses (see aux send from the mixer
page above).
Mute button - Selecting the mute button (the button turns red) will cause that channel
pair to cease audio output. Deselecting the mute button will resume audio output on that
channel pair.
Solo button – Selecting the solo button (the button turns yellow) will cause all other
channels to cease audio output; deselecting the solo button will resume audio output on
all channels. Multiple solo selections are possible.
Aux Output Master Channel – The aux output master channel controls the output
functions of signals routed to the aux L and aux R buses. Both channel faders can be
linked together with the link button. The bal control allows you to adjust the left/right
balance of the stereo signal.
When using the aux L and aux R sends in conjunction with the aux output master
channel, you must select an output channel pair to be the aux output by setting the
main/aux switch on the selected channel to the aux position. See in section 10, “Adding
Effects While Direct Monitoring” and “Using the Aux Send As a Separate Monitor Mix,”
later in this manual.
NOTE that there are no ctrl buttons available on the phones channels, since the
headphone outputs have their own dedicated level controllers.
Aux Channel Balance – The bal control allows you to adjust the balance of the
associated pair’s stereo output.
Aux Channel Mute - Selecting the aux mute button (the button turns red) will cause the
aux channel to cease audio output. Deselecting the mute button will resume audio output.
Headphone Output Channels – These channels control the functions of the FireWire
1814’s two headphone busses, phones 1 and phones 2.
