MASTER PAN

•Assigns all applicable channel V-Pots to act as pan controls (channels 1–72 and 81–88).

•Stays lit continuously until an Aux Select, Level to Tape, or Digital Trim button is engaged.

MASTER SOLO (Aux)

•Solos the currently selected Aux.

•Only one Aux can be soloed at a time.

•Master solo can be active at the same time a channel is soloed.

•Aux bus remains soloed until it is manually disengaged or until the CLEAR SOLO button is pressed.

•Solo level is post the MASTER V-Pot.

•Master Solo is not affected by the PFL or AFL Solo status selected in the Studio/Solo section.

V-Pot Assign Section

These buttons:

•Assign the channel V-Pots to control individual aux send levels.

•Assign the channel V-Pots to control individual channel trim or tracking output levels.

AUX 1–8 Buttons (Default Operation)

This description highlights the default configuration for aux sends and effects returns. Keep in mind that the new D8B plug-in architecture provides maximum flexibility and awesome creative capabilities with respect to plug-ins, aux sends, and returns.

•Pressing any Aux 1–8 assigns channel V-Pots to control individual send levels to AUX 1–8 output.

•Each Aux 1–8 is simultaneously routed to the corresponding 1/4" jack on the rear of the console and to an internal effects processor.

•Patching from the Aux 1–8 jacks does not inter- rupt the signal flow to the internal processors.

•Each Aux 1–8 acts as a mono send to a stereo internal effects processor (MFX card only). UFX cards offer complete flexibility.

•Auxes patched to the IVL Vocal Studio effects return to four channels, either in stereo pairs (second pair is the reverb return) or as four separate channels.

AUX 9–10 and 11–12

•Configured differently than Auxes 1–8.

•Each channel has a stereo pair of controls: one level and one pan. This is ideal for phones/cue mixes or for an additional record- ing feed in a live setting.

•Pressing Aux 9–10 assigns the channel V-Pot to control the send level for the stereo pair.

•Pressing Pan under Aux 9–10 assigns the channel V-Pot to adjust pan positioning between the stereo pair.

•Aux 9–10 are not routed to the internal effects processor by default, but may be assigned as such in the plug-in configuration window.

•Aux 11–12 operates identically to Aux 9–10.

LEVEL TO TAPE

•Level to Tape assigns the channel V-Pots as tape output level controls via the I/O cards.

•This control is post channel DSP and pre- fader. Fader adjustments don’t affect tape output levels.

•Facilitates optimizing the gain structure from the beginning to the end of the signal path, when used correctly.

•When Faders to Tape is active (in the Options menu), the level to tape is controlled by the source channel faders.
