Linking
You can link two mixes together. Pairs can only be created from adjacent mix
buses of the same colour. To link a pair of mix buses, click the LINK button of
either of the mix buses (odd or even) you want to link (see To Select The Mix
Bus Mode).
The linked parameters default to the user-con gurable global default link
settings, which are set via the GUI menu (choose home > Preferences >
Linking). However, you can override these default link settings for the pair
via the Stereo Linking Options window, which is opened by pressing the
LINK OPT. button (to the right of the LINK button).
Using Fader Flip
For information on using fader ip, see Controlling The Mix Buses In
Flip Mode.
NOTE: When using fader ip to control the aux bus levels, always use the
GUI to check the level. This is because the fader level markings have a
maximum of +10 dB, whereas the aux bus levels only go up to +6 dB.
Setting up the e ects rack
The GUI’s E ects screen contains a virtual 24-unit rack. You can have a maximum
of 24 e ects units in the rack, the number being dependent on con guration (via
the E ects and GEQs section of the Preferences screen).
Each unit can contain any combination of the e ects listed in the
Change Device Type window.
The assignable controls panel is common to all e ects, and lets you control
e ect parameters via the equivalent panel on the control surface (master bay).
>> To choose an e ect
1. At the GUI, choose home > Rack Units > E ects. Alternatively, press the
e ects/graphics screen access button in the primary navigation zone.
2. Click within your chosen rack position. This will be the position of the
new e ect.
3. In the e ect window, click CHANGE DEVICE TYPE.
4. In the Change Device Type window, click your chosen device type.
5. Click OK.
6. Change the parameters of the new e ect device as necessary. For example,
adjust control knobs, press buttons etc. You can even change the e ect’s
name by editing its name eld (upper-left corner of e ect window).
7. Click CLOSE to close the e ect window. The new e ect will appear in
the e ects rack. You can now patch the new e ect, which will be on the
E ects tabs of both the From and To sections of the Patching screen.
