45X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual

7.2.5Home Screen: EQ Tab

The EQ tab displays all aspects of the channel equalizer and also displays a detailed visual graph of the current EQ curve. This tab can also be accessed directly by pressing the “View” button in the top panel Equalizer section.

1.If the currently selected channel is an input, the channel equalizer contains four bands, with various aspects of each band adjusted by encoders 2-5.

2.If the currently selected channel is a bus, the channel equalizer contains six bands, with various aspects of each band adjusted by encoders 1-6.

3.On the equalizer screen, the various encoders are always tied to the various equalizer bands, and the Layer up/down keys are used to toggle whether the four/six encoders adjust:

Gain

Frequency

Q (Bandwidth)

Equalizer Mode

Page 1 (Gain)

1.Adjust the 1st encoder to set the frequency of the channel low-cut filter.

2.Tap the 1st encoder to toggle the low-cut filter in/out of the signal path.

3.Adjust the 2nd encoder to boost/cut the gain of the low band.

4.Adjust the 3rd encoder to boost/cut the gain of the low-mid band.

5.Adjust the 4th encoder to boost/cut the gain of the high-mid band.

6.Adjust the 5th encoder to boost/cut the gain of the high band.

7.Tap the 6th encoder to toggle the EQ in/out of the signal path.

Page 2 (Frequency)

1.Works as above, but the encoders now adjust the frequency center points for the different EQ bands.

Page 3 (Q)

1.Works as above, but the encoders now adjust the Q (bandwidth) for the different EQ bands. Use a narrow slope for working with a specific frequency, or use a more broad slope for general tone shaping.

Page 4 (Mode)

1.Mode: Works as above, but the encoders now adjusts the EQ mode for each EQ band. Choices include:

Low Cut

Low Shelf

Parametric Equalizer

VEQ

High Shelf

High Cut

7.2.6 Home Screen: Sends Tab

The sends tab displays and controls all aspects of the channel sends to the sixteen mix buses. Compared to the dedicated top panel send controls, this screen offers additional functions such as send muting and simultaneous metering of the selected channel’s sixteen sends. This tab can also be accessed directly by pressing the “View” button in the top panel sends section.

The sends tab contains the following parameters that can be adjusted using the six rotary-push encoders:

Page 1

1.Adjust the 1st encoder to set the level for the first send of the currently selected four-send group.

2.Tap the 1st encoder to mute the first send of the currently selected four-send group.

3.Repeat process with the next three encoders for the other three sends in the currently selected four-send group.

4.Adjust the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen encoders, shifting focus two sends at a time.

5.Tap the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen encoders, shifting focus four sends at a time.

Page 2

1.Adjust the 1st encoder to select where in the signal chain the send is tapped from, for the first two sends of the currently focused four sends. Options include:

Pre-EQ

Post-EQ

Pre-Fader

Post-Fader

Sub-Group

2.Adjust the 3rd encoder to perform the same operation for the second two sends of the currently focused four sends.

3.Adjust the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen encoders, shifting focus two sends at a time.

4.Tap the 6th encoder to select which four sends to control with the screen encoders, shifting focus four sends at a time.

7.2.7 Home Screen: Main Tab

The main tab displays and controls all aspects of the main bus assignments.

The main tab contains the following parameters that can be adjusted using the six rotary-push encoders:

1.Adjust the 1st encoder to pan the selected channel within the main stereo output.

2.Tap the 1st encoder to assign the selected channel to the main stereo output.

3.Adjust the 2nd encoder to adjust the level of the currently selected channel within the mono (center) bus.

4.Tap the 2nd encoder to assign the selected channel to the mono output signal path. Use this function when crafting an LCR mix as opposed to a mono or stereo mix.

5.Tap the 5th encoder to solo/unsolo the currently selected channel.

6.Adjust the 6th encoder to set the fader level for the currently selected channel.

7.Tap the 6th encoder to mute/unmute the currently selected channel.
