Selecting Encoder Modes 61
DM2000 Version 2—Owner’s Manual
Selecting Encoder Modes
The exact function of each Encoder depends on the selected Layer and Encoder
mode. There are two preset Encoder modes, Pan and Aux/Mtrx, and four assign-
able modes, for which you can choose from over 40 parameters.
1Select a Layer, as explained in page 58.
2Use the ENCODER MODE buttons to select
an Encoder mode.
[PAN]: Encoders function as Pan controls. When
you press the Encoder push-switches, the current
Pan positions appear on the channel strip displays.
[AUX/MTRX]: Encoders control Aux or Matrix
Send levels, depending on the selected Layer. When
you press the Encoder push-switches, the currently-selected Aux or Matrix Send levels
appear on the channel strip displays.
[ASSIGN 1–4]: Encoders control the parameters assigned to the ASSIGN buttons. See
“Assigning Parameters to the ENCODER MODE Assign Buttons” on page 62 for more
information.
The indicator of the currently selected ENCODER MODE button lights up.
The following table shows the exact Encoder functions for each Layer and Encoder mode.
The values of the parameters being controlled by the Encoders are displayed graphically by
the channel strip displays. See “Channel Strip Displays” on page 55 for more information.

1. When Alt Layer is assigned, the Encoders enable you to control a parameter that is assigned to the cor-
responding channel fader in the partner layer. (A partner layer would be the layer of channels 25-48
if the layer of channels 1-24 is currently selected, or the layer of channels 73-96 if the layer of channels
49-72 is currently selected.)
