Using the SELECTED CH VIEW screen
to specify mute groups
• You are free to assign the same channel to more than one
mute group.
HINT
• Mute group assignments are saved as part of the scene.
However, the mute on/off settings are not saved.
NOTE
• If you assigned a mute group on/off function to a user-defined
key, you can switch mute on/off by pressing the correspond-
ing user-defined key to make it light or go dark.
• Even if a channel is assigned to a mute group, it will not be
affected by mute on/off operations if its [ON] key was off to
begin with.
HINT
• In the SELECTED CH VIEW screen you can only assign mute
groups. To switch muting on/off, you must either use the MUTE
GROUP screen of the CHANNEL JOB screens (
→ p. 121), or
assign the mute on/off function to a user-defined key and operate
that key (
→ p. 196).
