Chapter 5 Using the Digital Mixer

Adjusting the Panning of Channel Linked Channels

When Channel Link is on, it is possible to adjust the channels’ overall stereo position while preserving their pan positions relative to each other. If you want to adjust the pan for each channel independently, use the following procedure.

If you adjust the pan while sound is playing, you may notice “blips” in the sound. This is not a malfunction. If you find it annoying, adjust the pan when the sound is not playing.

1.Press the SELECT button for the input or track channel that is linked.

2.Press [F1 (MIX)]. If “MIX” does not appear above [F1], press [PAGE] until you see “MIX” above [F1], and then press [F1 (MIX)].

3.Press [F6 (PRM.V)]. Each of the pan positions appears in the display.

4.Use [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the cursor. Then use the TIME/VALUE dial to adjust each

setting.
