Chapter 6 Mixer Channel Strip Detail
This chapter explains in detail each of the settings available
in the Mixer display for the Input Mixer, Track Mixer, and
the Master Block. For general information about signal flow,
busses, etc., see Chapter 5, “Using The Digital Mixer.”

Input Mixer

The following functions are found in the Input Mixer. Press
the SELECT button for any Input to view and adjust its
settings. Press the function button located under the display
corresponding to the setting you wish to change. Or, press
the [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] buttons to move the
cursor to the setting you wish to change. Use the TIME/
VALUE dial to select the desired value.
If you adjust the equalizer and 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 equalizer and
the pan when the sound is not playing.

[F1 (MIX)] MIX Bus Enable/Pan

(Mix Assign Switch)

The channel is assigned directly to the MIX bus. Set this
to “on” when you simply want to mix an input without
actually recording it.

The channel is not assigned to the MIX bus.
(Pan Knob)
Sets the left-right balance (L63-R63) of the channel in the MIX
bus.

You can use three-band EQ on as many as 16 tracks and/or
inputs at the same time. Three-band EQ cannot be used on
Tracks 17 and 18. Two-band EQ can be used on all 28 tracks
and inputs at the same time.
Low
This adjusts the gain (-12 dB to +12 dB) and the shelving
frequency (40 Hz-1.5 kHz) of the low-band EQ.
Mid
This adjusts the gain (-12 dB to +12 dB) and the center
frequency (200 Hz-8 kHz), and the Q (filter sharpness) (0.5-
16) of the mid-band EQ. The Mid band is not available when
“2 Band EQ” is selected.

This adjusts the gain (-12 dB to +12 dB) and the shelving
frequency (500 Hz-18 kHz) of the high-band EQ.
