Control surface
The control surface is divided into areas whose function is, largely, dependent on bay
location. Each bay has assorted control elements with local feedback and/or support
from the two centrally located GUI display screens. The screens can be remoted via
external VGA connections, and third party systems can also be viewed/controlled via an
integrated KVM switch on the rear panel.

A — input fast zone: 16 input fast
strips across the 12-channel and
4-channel input bays provide the
operator’s ‘must have now’ controls.
B — channel strip and mixes:
processing areas, such as the D-zone
(dynamic), E-zone (EQ) and mix controls,
provide a more comprehensive control by
allowing detailed adjustments to a single
channel’s audio parameters.

zone: sections for channel and bus
navigation and selection. For details, see
Chapter 7 “Navigation”.

strips can be used for mixing and
processing aux, return, matrix and
master channels. Navigation and flip
buttons are on the right of the output fast
strips.

and POP group sections.
F — miscellaneous: master channel
strips, A and B signal path monitoring,
communications, I-zone, surround
monitoring and mute groups.

screen control, and a screen access panel
(between trackballs) for direct access to
GUI menu options.
