CENTRE SECTION
Introduction
The console’s centre section is used to control the console busses, dynamics, monitoring and overall configuration. It also
p
rovides access to a number of DAW control elements which are covered in Section 4.
Power Supply Indicators
Beneath the VU meters, on the main control surface, you will find a row of four LEDs that display the current state of power
r
ails within the console. The ±15 Volt and the +4 Volt supplies are for analogue audio and logic circuitry respectively. The
+12 Volt supply provides power for the faders and some relays. All LEDs should be lit whenever the console is powered
up. If any are unlit, please call your technical department! If you don’t have one, please refer to the maintenance information
in the appendices of this manual.
Function Keys
A number of console elements are configured using the Function keys, located
in the top right quarter of the monitor panel. The top row of buttons assign a
subset of softkeys to the lower row of buttons. The display indicates the
function assigned to the lower row. Frequently, the lower softkeys are also
submenus, opening up a further set of softkeys in the lower row of buttons.
When none of the upper row of keys are selected, the following functions are applied to the lower softkeys:
ALL Activates the SEL key on all channel strips.
SET Groups the controls of all channels with their SEL key activated. With SET enabled, pressing any momentary
switch on any selected channel will cause the switch action to be replicated across all selected channels.
0dB Sets selected faders to 0dB
