Modes

Next to each button is an LED. On the top two rows of buttons, these LEDs are used to display the current mode and page selection.

There are four modes on the CueMixer. These are System Master, Trims, Shift and EQ. For each mode, there is a single button that will enter the mode - which is why there is a graphic box around both the button and the LED.

Note

The GO button is a special case; the LED is on all of the time to highlight the button.

Shift Mode

Pressing and releasing the Shift key allows you to select what the motorized faders display and control. The selections available are: Inputs, Bus Levels, Outputs, Aux Outputs, and Virtual Groups using the button to the right of the desired mode LED.

The Shift key [8] is a toggle. You press it once to toggle shift ON for the next key press. After the second key press, shift is toggled off.

Important

You do not hold down the Shift key when pressing a second key. If the LED next to the Shift key is lit, then Shift mode is active.

For example, to select Inputs:

1.Press and release the Shift key.

2.Press the button to the right of the “Inputs” LED (in the red box labeled STOP).

The faders will now reflect the state of the Input levels. Here is a list of the Shift selections and the button associated with each:

Page Select

There can be hundreds of faders in a Matrix3 system. Since there are just eight faders on the CueMixer, Page Select is used to choose which faders are displayed, in groups of eight at a time. The four keys [12, 13, 14, 15] labeled 1 2 3 4 are used to go instantly to the first four pages in a Matrix3 system.

You can also use the Shift key and the last two rows of buttons to go directly to any of 16 pages. With Shift toggled ON, the Isolate buttons [16-23] are used to select pages 1 to 8 and the Mute buttons [24-31] are used to select pages 9 to 16.
