VOLUME CONTROL (CODEC ONLY)
To use the Vortex Device to perform volume control, first set the VSX 8000’s Balanced Outputs to
FIXED. On the VSX 8000 User Interface, go to SYSTEM, ADMIN SETTINGS, AUDIO SETTINGS, and select
NEXT twice for Page 3. Select the FIXED option for Output Mode. Set the Level setting to 5.
As previously mentioned, the Volume Up / Down buttons on the Remote Control send a command
to execute Macro 183 and Macro 184. Here is an example of how to write a Volume Control
Macro for a system that has the VSX 8000 connected to Input A of a Vortex Device. Inside the
Vortex Device, Input A is routed to Output B and to R1. The Macros should control the cross-
point gains to Output B and to the R1 reference bus so that the room gain stays consistent for
increasing volume.
First, label Macro 183 as "Volume Up" and Macro 184 as "Volume Down":
Figure 9. Volume macro labels.
Next, insert the cross-point muting command for Input 1. Click Insert Command, Matrix, A (“From
