5.8.2 ROUTING SETTING
SETUP > ROUTING SETTINGS > ROUTING
The routing, or channel assignement to the tracks, is done by means of a specific menu as shown below:
The round dot assigns the Inputs Channels to the Tracks. Any combination is possible thus any input channel
can be routed to any track. An input channel can be routed to multiple tacks and multiple channels can be
routed on the same track (mixing). In the figure above, a 1x1 routing is established between the Inputs and
the Hard Disc Tracks. In addition, input channels 1 & 2 are also routed to the CF card.
The table below shows the actions of the Joystick :
Joystick Short pressure Long pressure
LEFT Move the selection cursor to the Left Return to the previous menu
RIGHT Move the selection cursor to the Right
UP Move the selection cursor upward
DOWN Move the selection cursor downward
CENTER Activate/Deactivate the assignment
NOTES: It is not possible to leave this menu without saving the configuration
The un-assigned Tracks (no dot on the crossing) are automatically desactivated.
SETUP > ROUTING SETTINGS > MIXING LEVEL
The [MIXING LEVEL] menu defines the attenuation to be applied to each channel when summing (mixing)
multiple input channels onto the same track, thus avoiding a possible digital clipping. Four possibilities are
offered and the choice depends on the phase coincidence of the sources.
•
NONE no attenuation at all
•
ATT1.5 mainly used if the sources have no phase coincidence
•
ATT3 recommanded for phase coincident sources such as sereo or M/S microphone
•
ATT6 only used if the sources are absolutaly in phase
The table below summarizes the exact attenuations computed and applied according to the number of input
channels assigned to the same track.
