Sending signals from MIX channels and STEREO/MONO channels to MATRIX buses

LS9-16/32 Owner’s Manual

3

Use the MIX/MATRIX SELECT section keys
to select the send-destination MATRIX bus.

When a MIX, STEREO (L/R), or MONO channel is
selected, the keys of the MIX/MATRIX SELECT sec-
tion are used to select the send-destination MATRIX
bus.
When you press a key to select the send-destination
MATRIX bus, only the LED of the corresponding key
will blink, indicating that it is selected as the send-des-
tination. The cursor will move to the corresponding
TO MATRIX LEVEL knob in the TO MATRIX field
of the screen.

4

Use the SELECTED CHANNEL section
[SELECTED SEND] encoder to adjust the
send level from that channel to the MATRIX
bus you selected in step 3.

If the send-destination MATRIX bus is set to stereo,
the function of the [SELECTED SEND] encoder will
change depending on which of the two adjacent keys
of the MIX/MATRIX SELECT section are lit.

If the left key is lit

Use the [SELECTED SEND] encoder to adjust the
pan (or balance, for a STEREO channel) of the signal
that is sent from that channel to the two MATRIX
buses.

If the right key is lit

Use the [SELECTED SEND] encoder to adjust the
send level shared by the two MATRIX buses.

5

To switch the on/off status of a signal sent
to a MATRIX bus, move the cursor to the TO
MATRIX LEVEL knob in the screen and
press the [ENTER] key.

If you switch this off, the knob will turn grey. To turn
it back on, press the [ENTER] key once again.

6

Use the top panel [SEL] keys to select
another channel, and adjust the send level
to the selected MATRIX bus in the same
way.

7

Use the keys of the MIX/MATRIX SELECT
section to select another MATRIX bus as
the send-destination, and adjust the send
level in the same way.

Controlling the signals sent from MIX, STE-

REO (L/R), or MONO channels to a specific
MATRIX bus

[HOME] key.

The SELECTED CH VIEW screen will appear in the

FROM MIX field

If a MATRIX channel is selected, this area of the
SELECTED CH VIEW screen will show the FROM
MIX field, allowing you to switch the on/off status and
adjust the send level of the signals sent from each MIX
channel to the MATRIX bus.

FROM MIX LEVEL knobs

These knobs indicate and control the send level of the
signals sent from MIX channels 1–16 to the currently
selected MATRIX bus.

• If a MIX, STEREO (L/R), or MONO channel is selected, MIX/

MATRIX SELECT section keys 9–16 are inactive.

• If the LED of only the specified key is blinking in the MIX/

MATRIX SELECT section and the LEDs of the remaining keys
are lit, the LS9 is in SENDS ON FADER mode. Press the
desired key of the MIX/MATRIX SELECT section so that only
the LED of that key is blinking.

NOTE

• If PRE is selected as the send position to the MATRIX bus,

then you will also be able to select either PRE EQ (immedi-
ately before the attenuator) or PRE FADER (immediately
before the fader) for each two adjacent odd-numbered/even-
numbered MATRIX buses (

p. 213).

• If desired, the pan/balance setting of the signal sent to a ste-

reo MATRIX bus can be linked with the TO ST PAN/TO ST
BAL knob of the SELECTED CH VIEW screen (

p. 213).

• If you want to monitor the signal that is being sent to a specific

MATRIX bus, select the fader layer that includes that MATRIX
channel, and press the corresponding [CUE] key.
