Button Behaviors

There are various combinations of lit and unlit buttons on the A-16CS Control Surface. They are the same as those found on the A-16R. Here is an overview:

•Channel buttons have two LEDs, an upper and lower. The upper button is red and indicates that the Channel is selected. The lower button is yellow; it indicates that the Channel is muted. Channel buttons will light solid or flash.

•The RECALL button has one red LED. It flashes when the RECALL button is pressed, indicating that you can now select a Preset by touching any numbered button.

•There is one LED in the GROUP button. When the GROUP button is pressed, the LED flashes. This indicates that you can now build or edit a Group.

•The RECALL and GROUP buttons will both flash when held down simultaneously. This is the Save Mode, as indicated by the connecting graphic above the two buttons on the front panel.

•When a Preset is saved, all sixteen Channel buttons will flash briefly to confirm the Preset save operation.

•The SOLO button has one LED. It will light when pressed, indicating that the selected Channel or Group is now being auditioned with all other Channels being muted.

•The MUTE button has no LED in it. Pressing the MUTE button with a Channel selected will cause the Channel’s lower (yellow) LED to light.

There is also one special button combination, the RECALL button followed by the MUTE button. When used together this combination serves a twofold function:

•If there is a sudden change in the audio volume coming through the monitor system, this button combination silences all audio channels instantly.

•When starting from scratch to create a mix, use this function to set all sixteen channels to zero volume and all pans to the center settings.
