Output channel operations
MATRIX section
In the MATRIX section you can adjust the send levels from MIX channels to MATRIX buses, and adjust the output level of
the MATRIX channels.
ADCA group LEDs
The LED of the DCA group to which this MATRIX
channel is assigned will light.
BMATRIX [PAIR] LED
This LED will light if adjacent odd-numbered/even-
numbered MATRIX channels are paired.
CMATRIX [ON] key
This switches the MATRIX channel on/off.
DMATRIX encoder
This adjusts the output level of the MATRIX channel.
EMATRIX [CUE] key
This is used to monitor a MATRIX channel via the Cue
Monitor/Solo function.
FMATRIX [SEL] key
This selects the MATRIX channel to which operations
in the SELECTED CHANNEL section or in the display
will apply.

❏Sending signals from the MATRIX sec-

tion to output jacks

Here’s how the signals sent from MIX channels or STE-
REO A/B channels to MATRIX buses can be sent to the
MATRIX OUT jacks.
1Make sure that appropriate signals are being
sent from the MIX channels or STEREO A/B
channels to the MATRIX buses.
2In the MATRIX section, press the MATRIX [ON]
buttons to turn the desired MATRIX chan-
nel(s) on.
3Turn the encoders of the MATRIX section to
adjust the output level of the MATRIX
channels.
The signals sent to the MATRIX bus(es) will be sent
from the corresponding MATRIX OUT jack(s).
4To check the output level of the MATRIX chan-
nels, press the [MIX/MATRIX] key in the meter
section.
The [ST IN/MATRIX] meters will show the output
levels.
Hint
The detection point (metering point) of the signal levels shown
in the meters can be changed if desired (
➥
p.109).

❏Pairing the MATRIX section

Adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered MATRIX chan-
nels can be paired if desired. If two channels are paired,
their parameters (with the exception of pan and delay) will
be linked.
1In the MATRIX section, hold down the MATRIX
[SEL] key for one of two adjacent odd-num-
bered/even-numbered channels, and press the
MATRIX [SEL] key of the other channel.
The [PAIR] LED will light, and the MATRIX channels
will be paired. At this time, the parameters of the chan-
nel whose MATRIX [SEL] key you pressed first will be
copied to the channel whose MATRIX [SEL] key you
pressed later.
For example if you pressed the keys in the order of
MATRIX channel 1 → MATRIX channel 2, the param-
eters of MATRIX channel 1 will be copied to MATRIX
channel 2.
2To defeat pairing, hold down the [SEL] key of
one of the paired MATRIX channels and press
the [SEL] key of the other MATRIX channel.
When MATRIX channels are paired, the signal flow
will change as follows.
