The Channel Link function
LS9-16/32 Owner’s Manual
Channel Link is a function that links the operation of parameters such as fader and EQ between
input channels.
The parameters to be linked can be selected from the following choices.
• HA GAIN settings (linked while preserving the difference in level.)
• EQ settings
• Dynamics 1 and 2 settings
• On/off status of signals sent to MIX buses
• Send levels of signals sent to MIX buses
•Fader operations (linked while preserving the difference in level.)
• [ON] key operations
Two or more input channels that are linked are called a “link group.” The maximum number of link
groups you can create, and the maximum number of input channels that can be included in each
group, is 18 {34}. However, the selection of parameters for which operations of a channel are
linked for multiple link groups is shared by all link groups.
Here’s how to link specific parameters of input channels.
1In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the
[CHANNEL JOB] key repeatedly to access
the CH LINK screen of the CHANNEL JOB
screens.
1Channel display field
When you create a link group, the corresponding
channels will be highlighted. If there are two or more
link groups, each group is shown in a different color.
BLINK PARAMETER field
Use the buttons in this field to select the parameters
that you want to be linked. These settings are shared
by all link groups.
CSEND PARAMETER field
If you have turned on the MIX ON or MIX SEND but-
tons in the LINK PARAMETER field, use the buttons
of this field to specify the send-destination bus(es).
2Use the buttons of the LINK PARAMETER
field to select the parameter(s) that will be
linked (multiple selections are allowed).
The table below lists the parameters you can select in
the LINK PARAMETER field.

• Channel link settings are saved as part of the scene.
•Recall Safe does not affect channel link. When you recall a scene,
the link status saved in that scene will always be reproduced.

•If you link Dynamics 1 or 2 for two or more input channels, the
parameter values will be linked, but the key-in signals are not
linked. For more about dynamics, refer to “EQ and Dynamics”
(

p. 115).
• If you turn on the EQ button or DYNA 1/2 buttons, library
recall operations will also be linked.
