Chapter 3 Playback Operations

Function Buttons

(While on the Playlist Display)

In the Playlist display, the function buttons perform as follows.

*If “ZOOM+” does not appear above F1, press [PAGE] until it does.

[F1 (ZOOM+)]:

This enlarges, in three stages, the display of the tracks. When a waveform is displayed, this will make it appear taller.

[F2 (ZOOM-)]:

This reduces, in three stages, the display of the tracks. When a waveform is displayed, this will make it appear shorter.

[F3 (← → )]:

This stretches the timeline in four stages. When a waveform is displayed, this laterally stretches out the waveform.

[F4 (→ ← )]:

This shrinks the timeline in four stages. If a waveform is displayed, this will squeeze the waveform.

[F5 (WAVE)]: This displays the audio waveform for the

corresponding track as selected using the [ ] and [ ] cursors. Press [F5 (WAVE)] once to display the waveform. Press [F5 (WAVE)] again to remove the waveform. (Make sure that the track you have selected contains audio.)

Press [PAGE] to display the second set of functions (when available).

[F1 (LMTrk)]: Displays levels and meters of tracks.

[F2 (LM In)]: Displays levels and meters for inputs.

[F3 (LMAux)]: Displays levels and meters of the AUX and EFFECT Send busses.

[F4 (PRE)] / [F4 (POST)]:

This switches the display of the meter from pre-fader to post- fader. Press [F4] to switch back and forth between pre- and post-fader levels. The current Levels setting is labeled either “Pre” or “Post in the lower left corner of the center portion of the display. If the current setting is pre-fader, you will see the indicator “Pre” in the lower left corner of the level meter display, and the label above [F4] will be “Post”. Pressing [F4] at this point will switch the level meter to post-fader.

[F5 (F/P)] or [F5 (Metr)]:

This switches the display from Level Meters to Fader/Pan positions for each channel.

When the middle of the display is showing faders and panning:

Press [F1 (LMTrk)] to view the fader and pan positions for the Track Mixer.

Press [F2 (LM In)] to view the fader and pan positions for the Input Mixer.

Press [F3 (LMAux)] to view the fader and pan positions for the AUX and EFFECT busses.
