M7CL Owner’s Manual
Sending the signal from an input channel to the MATRIX buses
72
This section explains how to send the signal from an input channel to MATRIX buses 1–8. The
MATRIX buses are used to produce a mix that is independent of the STEREO bus or MIX buses,
mainly for sending to a master recorder or to the monitor system for the musicians.
You can send a signal from an input channel to the MATRIX buses in the following three ways.
In this method, you use the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels to the MATRIX buses.
When using this method, the signals sent from a specific input channel to all MATRIX buses can be adjusted simulta-
neously.
In this method, you use the multifunction encoders of the Centralogic section to adjust the send levels to the MATRIX
buses. When using this method, the signals sent from eight consecutive input channels to a specific MATRIX bus can be
adjusted simultaneously.
With this method, you switch the M7CL to SENDS ON FADER mode, and use the faders on the top panel to adjust the send
levels to the MATRIX buses. When using this method, the signals sent from all input channels to a specific MATRIX bus
can be adjusted simultaneously.
Here’s how you can use the encoders of the SELECTED
CHANNEL section to adjust the send levels of the signals
sent from a specific input channel to all MATRIX buses.
1Make sure that an output port is assigned
to the MATRIX bus to which you want to
send signals, and that your external device
is connected to the corresponding output
port.
For details on assigning an output port to a MATRIX
bus refer to p. 105. For details on connecting an exter-
nal device, refer to p. 46.
2Use the [SEL] keys of the top panel to
select the input channel that will send sig-
nals to the MATRIX buses.
3Press any one of the encoders of the
SELECTED CHANNEL section to access
the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen.
Adjustments of send levels from the input channel to
the MIX buses / MATRIX buses is done in the TO
MIX/TO MATRIX field of this screen.
1TO MIX/TO MATRIX field
In this field you can switch the on/off status and adjust
the level of the signal sent from the input channel to
the MIX buses / MATRIX buses.
BTO MIX/TO MATRIX buttons
These buttons select the send destination that is con-
trolled by the TO MIX/TO MATRIX field. If the TO
MATRIX button is on, you can control the signal sent
to the MATRIX bus.
CTO MATRIX SEND LEVEL knob
Adjusts the send level of the signal sent from the input
channel to MATRIX bus. To adjust the send le vels, use
the encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section.
If the send-destination MATRIX bus is set to stereo,
the left knob of the two adjacent knobs will operate as
a PAN knob (for a ST IN channel, the BALANCE
knob).
