Master fader

The master fader is used to control

the overall level of the mixed signal

output from the X-9.

See “Signal flow” on page15 for

details of how this works in conjunc-

tion with the input, etc., signals in

the X-9.

Program faders

These faders adjust the levels of the programs after

they have been equalized and before they are sent to

either the cross-fader or to the master fader.

The fader curve and fader direction can also be set,

and fader program start can be carried out.

See “About programs” on page14 for details of how

programs and signals interact.

See “Faders” on page 21 for further details about

fader settings.

External effect

These controls affect the assignment

and the on/off status of any external

effect connected to the X-9.

See “External effects” on page13 for details of how

to connect and use an external effect processor with

the X-9.
