Using the Faders

When the page is changed, the fader wing LCD will display information for any mapped submaster
or loaded playback. Unmapped faders will display no information.

Submaster LEDs will illuminate in the color of the new submaster loaded on the page (green for
additive and red for inhibitive). Fader wing submasters are not motorized, therefore when you
change pages you may have to manually reset the fader to the proper location to reflect its current
output level. If a submaster setting must be matched to gain control, the LED will flash quickly in the
appropriate color. The LED will stop flashing and illuminate normally once the fader has been
moved to the required location.

When loaded with a playback, you may use the fader to interrupt a fade in progress and switch the
fade to manual timing. First press [Go] and while the fade is in progress, drop the fader to zero and
the raise the fader at the desired rate. Once it is raised fully, the fade will complete and control will
be returned to the buttons.
