DAW Control
Channel Functions
In DAW focus mode the channel meters, faders and part or all of the Solo and Cuts tile control the DAW and display its
s
tatus.
DAW Meters
When in DAW focus mode, the 24 stereo channel meters indicate the level of the DAW
signal path. Mono tracks are displayed on the left meter only. When a signal reaches 0dBFs,
the corresponding OVER tally will light to indicate that the DAW signal level has
clipped.
These meters duplicate the function of meters within your DAW, and show the same
information. The meters also follow DAW pre or post fader meter settings, as set within
the DAW.
OVER tallies can be reset using the F1 function in the Fkys softkey menu
Status Indicators
The meter shows the status of the corresponding DAW track.
REC flashes when the track is in record ready and lights when the track is in record.
EDIT indicates that the track is selected for editing with the plug-in controller.
Multi-channel Metering (TDM Systems Only)
Multi-channel metering can be displayed by pressing OPTION + SOLO on a selected multi-channel track. The next two
stereo meters are used to show the additional information. Normal metering functionality resumes after deselecting the Solo
function.
Channel Fader
The channel fader can control any virtual DAW fader including Channel, Master, Auxiliary
MIDI tracks or Instrument tracks. The calibration of the fader will depend upon the DAW
(please refer to your DAW manual for more details). Pressing ALT will display the gain of
the DAW fader on the fader scribble strip when you move the fader.
Fader Grouping
Channel faders will follow any grouping enabled within your DAW. Faders can be disengaged
from a fader group simply by holding down the CTRL button or by touching one fader in
a group while adjusting another fader’s level. Relative fader levels are maintained upon
release of the fader.
