VM04 Owner’s manual
5. Normal Mix Mode
This is the mode in which only the INPUT and MASTER Faders will work. Raise both the INPUT Fader of the channel that has the incoming signal connected and the MASTER fader. The audio signal will start coming out at the STEREO OUT L and R and S/P DIF Optical output. If you have a pair of headphones connected to the Headphone Jack, you can hear the same audio signal here as well. Also, you can adjust the headphone level with the volume knob next to the Jack.
The LCD Display will show the following:

<Caution>
When powering ON, it is possible that the FADER ADJUST key will start flashing. This will occur if each Fader position after powering ON is different from their settings the last time you powered OFF. With regard to the audio, the audio level is recalled according to the Fader setting the last time you powered OFF. As the VM04 Faders do not move automatically, this is the way the VM04 indicates that it has detected some discrepancy between the physical Fader position now and the position the last time you powered OFF. See Fader Adjust mode (page24).
If it is not necessary to match the fader positions, the FADER ADJUST key blinking will be extinguished when all faders are moved and then, returned to the normal mix mode.
The sound you have obtained up to this stage is so called “dry sound”. All the settings are neutral; the PAN is in the center, there is flat EQ and no Effect. Let’s move on to the next CHANNEL EDIT Mode.
