The Automation Controller includes the Program Master Fader
(PGM) for the console. This dedicated and fully automated
master fader controls the level of the program (mix) output.
The Program Master Fader (PGM) has the following features:
Faders: 100mm, touch sensitive fader with classic API
control cap
Automation Controls: Buttons and indicators for
automation control
If automation has been added to a non-automated 1608, the
Program Master Fader on the Automation Controller will
replace the originally installed 440B Program Master Fader.
The DAW button activates the DAW worksurface control for the
Group Master and Program Master faders.
The Program Master Fader will be explained in detail in
subsequent sections of this manual.
The “DAW” button included on the Automation Controller (above the Program
Master Fader) activates DAW control for the Group Master Faders and
Program Master Fader.
DAW control will be explained in detail in section 14.0 DAW Control.
