Yamaha AW2400 owner manual Pairing channels

Pairing channels

Pairing channels

Adjacent odd- and even-numbered input channels (1/2–15/16), track channels (1/2–23/24), and AUX send master channels (1/2 and 3/4) can be set as pairs. When channels are paired most of their parameters are linked for optimum efficiency and easy when handling stereo signals.

Channels can be set as pairs either via the MONITOR screen or by using the panel [INPUT SEL] or [SEL] keys.

NOTE

•When channels are paired always operate only the fader of one channel. Attempting to operate both faders at once can result in damage to the faders’ motor drive system.
