Solid State Logic Matrix 2 User Manual

Auxiliary Sends
Matrix has six aux sends: one stereo cue and four mono effects (FX) sends.
Stereo Cue Send
T
he send to the stereo cue bus has a gain trim and pan pot, both of which have Total
Recall LEDs. Pressing the gain pot switches the send on and off. The
"! LED below the
pot will light to indicate that it is on. The pan pot is indented in the middle, where the
signal is feeding both the left and right busses equally.
The stereo cue bus can be fed from four places: line-in pre-input-selection, pre-fader (post-insert), post-fader
or via SuperCue. The first three of these are selected by the &% button in the (&' section of the Master
Channel, with pre-fader being the default setting.
The source is indicated by the LEDs between the pan and gain pots, and by the colour of the &% button:
Signal Source LED indication SRC button colour
Pre-fader, post-insert, (default setting) No LED Unlit
From the line-in, pre-gain !#(' is lit Red
Post-fader #"&' is lit Yellow
SuperCue monitoring (see below) &( &( is Green*
SuperCue
When ( is selected as the source in the %'&' "!'"% area of the centre section (see Page 39), SuperCue can be
used to control the artist’s headphone feed to provide full zero latency drop in and record monitoring for the artist. It works in
conjunction with the transport controls, summing the channel send and the DAW return when in Play, and automatically muting
the DAW return when in Record for a drop-in. The &( button in the Master Channel overrides the source selection made
by the &% button.
Note that for the SuperCue function to switch between corresponding DAW sends and returns, each DAW track output must
be sending to the Matrix channel which is feeding its input.
* Note that you can still cycle through the &% options when in SuperCue. However, the source selection indicated by the
&% button will not become active until the &( button has been deselected. You will notice that if you cycle through
source options while in SuperCue mode, the &% button colour changes but the LED indication in the channel does not.
32-Track Mixdown
When Matrix is being used for mixdown, and the channel is therefore being fed from the DAW return the
main channel input (‘LINE IN’) can be used to create an extra input channel, allowing for 32-track
mixdowns on one Matrix. This is done by selecting !#(' as the source of the stereo cue, as described
above, and then pressing '" + within the (&' area of the desk’s centre section. FX sends can
then be fed from the (bus, enabling external processing to be assigned to the !#(' signal rather
than DAW return signal, as described below.
Note that when using the (&' bus this way, the DAW returns should be fed by those signals requiring
routing to the Insert Matrix.
