FADER EDIT: These buttons are used to set the Fader Edit mode: Absolute or Relative. The
Fader Edit mode determines how fader moves are rerecorded. It has no effect during the
first recording pass. In Absolute mode, fader moves are rerecorded as absolute values and
existing fader data is erased. In Relative mode, fader moves are rerecorded relative to the
existing fader data.
Fader data includes Input Channel levels, Bus Out master levels, Aux Send master levels,
Matrix Send master levels, Stereo Out level, User Defined Remote Layer faders, and Group
master levels. The Fader Edit mode can also be set by using the AUTOMIX [RELATIVE]
button.
The following table explains Fader Edit mode operation (TO END: off. Edit Out: off)
TOUCH SENSE: When the TOUCH button is selected, the Touch Sense function enables
you to touch the faders to punch parameter values in and out. The corresponding parame-
ters’ OVERWRITE button must be set to on. When the LATCH button is selected, only
punch in operations are available (the punch out function is disabled).
You can also turn on or off the Touch Sense function by pressing the AUTOMIX [TOUCH
SENSE] button. This button memorizes the TOUCH and LATCH button selections on this
page. For example, if the TOUCH button is selected on this page, pressing the AUTOMIX
[TOUCH SENSE] button turns the TOUCH button on this page on or off. When the
LATCH button is selected in this page, pressing the AUTOMIX [TOUCH SENSE] button
turns the LATCH button on this page on or off.
OVERWRITE: These buttons determine which parameters can be recorded on the first
pass, and rerecorded (i.e., overwritten) on subsequent passes. They can be set while record-
ing is in progress. Parameters for which the corresponding OVERWRITE button is not set,
cannot be edited while recording is in progress. They work in unison with the AUTOMIX
[FADER], [ON], [PAN], [SURROUND], [AUX], [AUX ON] & [EQ] buttons.
Scene and library recalls, and internal effects processors and Plug-Ins parameters can be
recorded regardless of the OVERWRITE settings.
Absolute Relative
Fader edits are recorded as absolute values and
existing fader data between the punch in and out
points is erased.
Fader edits are rerecorded relative to the existing
fader data.
