Changing Encoder Function
The function assigned to the VST encoders can be changed by the user via the Vistonics Mode panel (see
Figure 7-4).
The two [FAST ASSN] keys provide a very fast way to temporarily assign a bus function to a VST encoder
row. Press and hold one of the [FAST ASSN] keys, then press one of the Output Masters’ [SOLO/SEL] keys
( there will be no influence on audio, the Output solo is not activated). The relevant row of VST encoders
will now be assigned to that Output master, and the [FAST ASSN] key in question will illuminate.
Hint: Only Output Masters which are configured as Auxes use the encoders. Group Masters do, however,
use the VST button next to the encoder.
HINT: Fast assign mapping is removed by pressing/releasing [FAST ASSN]. Fast assign always works
GLOBALLY for all input strips
The [SETUP] key is reserved for future use.
If [USER] is pressed the two VST encoder rows will be assigned as AUX 3 and AUX 4 send level controls for
their input channels. The [USER] key is illuminated when active.
The two [FLW] keys activate the FOLLOW SOLO function for their respective encoder rows. This means that
pressing an Output Solo/sel will automatically assign the soloed Output to this row, overriding the default
or the [USER] layer. Note that only one [FLW] can be active at a time.
The [PAN] key, which is illuminated when it is active, only has an effect on Aux Masters which have been
configured as stereo pairs. If such a pair is assigned to a VST encoder row, and if the [PAN] key is active,
the encoders will control the pan between the pair rather than the contribution level.
HINT: If both Auxes assigned to Row 1 & 2 are Stereo Auxes, both Rows 1 and 2 will change to the PAN
function across the desk. If only one of the two rows is a Stereo Aux, then only this row will change to PAN.
If neither row has a Stereo Aux assigned, the [PAN] switch will have no function.
The [PRE/POST] key isn’t used for any encoder functions, but for the sake of completeness its function is
described here. The [PRE/POST] key allows the user to configure Aux sends from channels, when they are
assigned to the two VST encoder rows, as pre or post-fader.
