Pairing Channels
Input Channels, Bus Outs, and Aux Sends can be paired for stereo operation. Input Chan-
nels can be paired either horizontally, that is, adjacent odd-even channels on the same Layer
(e.g., 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, etc) or vertically, that is, counterpart channels on adjacent Layers (e.g.,
1-25, 2-26, 49-73, 50-74, etc). Bus Outs and Aux Sends can be paired only horizontally.

Pairing Channels by Using the [SEL] Buttons

Only horizontal pairing can be set by using the [SEL] buttons.
1Use the LAYER buttons to select the Layer containing the channels that you
want to pair.
2While holding down the [SEL] button of the rst channel, press the [SEL] but-
ton of the second channel.
The settings of the first channel are copied to the second channel and the channels are
paired. The [SEL] button indicator of the currently selected channel lights up, while the
[SEL] button indicator of the other channel flashes.
Aux Sends can also be paired by using the AUX SELECT buttons.
To cancel a pair, while holding down the [SEL] button of the first channel, press the [SEL]
button of the second channel.
The following channel parameters are copied, and controlled together, when channels are
paired: Fader, On/Off, Insert On/Off, Aux On/Off, Aux Send Level, Aux Pre/Post, Gate
parameters, Compressor parameters, EQ parameters, Fader group, Mute group, EQ group,
Comp group, Solo, Solo Safe, [AUTO] button, Fade Time, Recall Safe, Bus to Stereo On/Off,
Bus to Stereo Level.
The following channel parameters are not copied, or controlled together, when channels are
paired: Input Patch, Insert Patch, Output Patch, Comp Position, Phase, Delay On/Off,
Delay Time, Delay Feedback, Delay Mix, Routing, Pan, Follow Pan, Surround Pan, Bus to
Stereo Pan, Aux Send Pan, Balance, Attenuator.

Pairing Channels by Using the Pair Pages

Both horizontal and vertical pairing can be set on the Pair pages.
1Use the DISPLAY ACCESS [PAIR] button to locate the Pair pages.
The Pair parameters for the 56 Input Channels are divided between two pages. The Input
Channel 1–48 Pair page is shown below. The layout of the other page is the same.
