Link to Kit-Piece

The Link function lets you associate one Kit-Piece slot with another.
Specifying a Linked Kit-Piece will result in both Kit-Pieces playing at
the same time when either is triggered.

It takes the form of a drop-down menu showing each Kit-Piece slot
available.

You can link individual Hit types by using the Key2 parameter in the
Advanced tab of the Hit Options panel.

Flip stereo mic fi eld

Because the ambient mic buses are stereo, you can encounter problems when panning
the Direct mic channels for a Kit-Piece. The position of the Kit-Piece within the stereo
fi eld of the ambient mic buses cannot be changed. However, activating the Flip stereo
mic fi eld option will result in the Kit-Piece’s Overhead, Room and PZM left/right channels
being swapped around.

Using this method, the Kit-Piece’s ambient refl ections can at least be made to more
closely follow its Direct Pan setting.

In addition you can use the Width controls in the Bus Mixer in order to manipulate the
stereo properties of the ambient mic buses.
