SECTION 22.3
PRIMARY COMMAND GROUP
We saw earlier that the second column of buttons in each stripe provides
access to important control operations and options.
The
Command
group in the
first stripe
(nearest the operator) has some unique
features that actually govern other sections of the overall control surface.
We’ll refer to this as the
primary Command group
. Among these special
controls are several that we c
an describe as ‘delegate’ buttons.
For example, consider the four buttons labeled
KEY
in the top row of this
group.
22.3.1
KEY
Pressing one of these buttons, labeled 1-
4, ‘delegates’ or assigns the buttons
in the 24-button
KEY
selection row at left in the same stripe to govern the active source assigned to one or
more KEY (or DSK) layers.
Hint: Delegate buttons usually, though not always, support multi-selection.

22.3.2
DLGT STRIPE
The remaining button on the topmost row of the
primary
Command group
is labeled
DLGT STRIPE
, which is
an abbreviation of ‘delegate stripe’.
FIGURE 250
When you press and hold
DLGT STRIPE
, the LCD displays in
each
stripe update to show the names of the
available switcher busses (
MAIN, M/E 1, 2, etc.)
and MIX 1-4. In this state, press one or more buttons in the
PGM/A row beneath and release the
DLGT STRIPE
button to assign the stripe to the designated bus or busses.
