Other ways of changing values

The

JOG/DATA

dial can also be used to change

parameter values.

1

Use the cursor keys to move the cursor
(sometimes shown by a blinking thick box
surrounding the parameter to be changed,
and sometimes by a

ƒ

symbol beside the

parameter to be changed.

2

When the parameter to be changed is high-
lighted as described above, use the entry dial
to set the value (it starts to flash), and the

ENTER

key to confirm the value set with the

dial.

Alternatively, if the parameter is an on-off
switching button or a checkbox (a number of
checkboxes can be checked individually),
press the

ENTER

key when the cursor is next

to the button or checkbox.

If the parameter is a “radio button” (one of a
number of alternative options), simply high-
light another radio button in the same group,
and press the

ENTER

key to change the state

of the buttons in the group.

NOTE

In some screens, (for example the module screens), the
active area is marked by a flashing box. The dial is then
used for navigation, rather than for setting values.

There are other screens, where the dial is chiefly, but
not exclusively, used for navigation (e.g. the
OPTION
SETUP screen (“SETUP” on page 20). If the dial is used
for numerical data entry in such cases, it is necessary to
press
ENTER (the value flashes) before starting to edit
the value with the dial, and
ENTER once again after
editing to confirm the value.

Using the faders to change values

In the global screens, there is often a special on-
screen button, allowing the setting of the values in
the screen directly using the faders.

To enable this feature, turn the on-screen

FADER

CONTROL

button to

ON

.

The name of this button is prefixed by the title of the
screen (here it is an

AUX LEVEL

screen which is being

edited).

When the button is turned on:

• The faders move to reflect the values set for the

current parameter

• The fader layer key starts to flash (if it is a channel

module layer and not the master layer—see “Fader
layers” on page 18).
This flashing key shows that
the faders are not currently acting as channel faders

and that moving the faders will change the cur-
rently selected parameter, not the module’s signal
level.

• Moving the fader of a channel changes the value of

the current parameter.

• Using the POD to change the value of a channel’s

parameter moves the corresponding fader if the
layer is active. If the layer is not active, the fader
will be moved to the new position when the layer is
made active.

The status of the fader control setting is memorized
between screens (and even when the DM-24 is turned
off and on again). It is therefore possible for the fad-
ers to move when the screen is changed.

The layer continues flashing as long as the faders are
not controlling the channel levels.
