Recalling a Scene Without Affecting the Current Fader Values

When a Scene is recalled, the fader values will change to the recalled settings. However, the positions of the top panel’s faders themselves do not change. This means that the locations of the faders will not match their actual values.

If you want just the fader values to remain unchanged when you recall a Scene, make the following settings.

1.Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)].

2.Hold [SHIFT] and press [F5 (SYSTM)].

The System menu icon appears in the display. If the System menu does not appear, press [F6 (EXIT)].

3.Press [F1 (SYSPM)].

If “SYSPM” does not appear in the display above [F1], press [PAGE] until it appears, then press [F1 (SYSPM)].

4.Use [ ], [ ], [ ] and [ ] to move the cursor to “Scene Mode.”

If “Scene Mode” is not displayed, press [F1 (Prm 1)].

Scene Mode:

This setting determines the fader settings when a Scene is recalled.

All:

This changes the mixer settings to those of the Scene being recalled. In this case, when a Scene is recalled, the location of the faders on the top panel may no longer match the actual fader settings.

KeepF:

This changes the mixer settings to those of the Scene being recalled, with the exception of the fader settings. This means that even when a Scene is recalled, fader settings will still match the fader positions on the top panel.

5.Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select “KeepF.”

6.Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)] to return to the playlist screen.
