TILITY
A new utility feature is added to provide three modes
of console operation. These are known as ‘user
modes’ and provide different levels of control access
for the day to day operator.
Press
UTIL repeatedly until the USERMODE menu
item is displayed. Use the
τυ
cursor keys to scroll
through the three mode options. Enter the mode
required. The mode may be changed at any time.
NORMAL MODE = Full control.
This is the default mode. All controls and automation
are available. Normal mode is ideal for live
performers using the performance memories.
LIVE MODE = Manual console operation +
optional recall of memories using Set.
All controls are available except for the automation.
Song, set and venue memories are locked and cannot
be overwritten. If a set is active before entering this
mode then the memories programmed into that set
can be selected using the
τυ
cursor keys and recalled
by pressing
ENTER. If ‘ NO SET’ is selected before
entering this mode then memory recall is completely
disabled. This lets you choose whether the operator
has limited access to a chosen selection of the
memories. Live mode is ideal for manual live mixing
where accidental overwriting of the console settings
is prevented.
BASIC MODE = Setup controls locked + optional
recall of memories using Set.
Only channel gain, faders, mutes and headphones
monitoring are available to the operator. All other
controls are locked to prevent preset parameters being
overwritten. If a set is active before entering this
mode then the memories programmed into that set
can be selected using the
τυ
cursor keys and recalled
by pressing
ENTER. If ‘ NO SET’ is selected before
entering this mode then memory recall is completely
disabled. This lets you choose whether the operator
can recall a selection of the memories. Basic mode is
ideal for installed sound where the installer presets
the parameters for different mixing situations and the
day to day operator has limited access to basic
controls only.
USERMODE SYMBOL If live or basic mode is
active a symbol is displayed on the left of the
HOME
screen. This identifies that the console is not in its
default normal mode.
Live mode =
u 1
Basic mode =
u 2
If any locked key is pressed both the padlock and
usermode symbols are briefly displayed.

FFECTS
FX1
AND
FX2
The original name and parameter screens have been
combined into one. The effects type is displayed as
the second menu item and can be changed using soft
control 10 or the
τυ
cursor keys. The associated
parameters are displayed and can be edited using soft
controls 4, 5, 6 and 7 as before. You can now quickly
view and hear the differences between parameters by
scrolling through the effects names.
MORE FX1 PRESETS More effects have been
added. These are based on existing effects types but
provide additional presets to store your different
parameter preferences:
• StECHO 5, 6
• BOUNCE 3, 4
• CHORUS 3
• DOUBLER 3
• M FLNGE 2
• StFLNGE 2
• PHUNNEL 3
• AUTOPAN 3
IMPROVED REVERBS The sound of the reverbs
have been enhanced to better simulate natural
acoustics. The original echo+reverb effects have
been replaced with sixteen delay+reverb types which
provide greater parameter control to set the balance
between the delay (echo) and reverb.
GREATER FOOTPEDAL CONTROL The
function of the foot pedals or switches can now be
assigned to control any effects parameter or any
channel volume. The third menu item displays the
assigned function. Select this item and scroll through
the options using soft stripcontrol 10 or the
τυ
cursor
keys.
• FX VOLUME = FX1, FX2
• OUTPUT VOLUME = Aux, FB, LR
• INPUT VOLUME = CH1-8
• EFFECTS PARAMETER
• BYPASS
• OFF = Footswitch disabled
Note that this greater flexibility makes the foot
controllers well suited to be used with remote wall
plate volume controls in installed systems.
