7 – Module operations

The DM-24’s modules are controlled by a series of
screens which allow the viewing and control of the
parameters which can be set for each module.

For the most part, modules have the same parameters
available to them. If there are difference between
module options, these are explained in the appropri-
ate section.

There are four module screens, accessed using the
“soft keys” by the PODs. These screens control the
channel dynamics processing, EQ, the aux sends, and
general setup parameters.

There is also a “common area”, which is always visi-
ble, regardless of the module screen currently visible.

The different parameters visible on each screen are
given here:

On-screen controls are operated as explained in
“User interface” on page 12 (the dial and cursor keys
are used to navigate so that a control is highlighted,
and the value changed with the PODs and the

ENTER

key).

Selecting modules

To select a module for editing using these module
screens, press the

MODULE

key

J

to place the unit

in module editing mode, followed by the

SEL

key

n

of the module to be edited.

If two modules have been linked as a stereo pair,
pressing the

SEL

key of either module of the pair will

bring up the screen allowing control of both modules
(see the section on “Linked modules” on page 60 for
further details).

It is possible to reverse this order; that is, press the

SEL

key and then the

MODULE

key.

In addition, even if the

MODULE

key has not been

pressed (the DM-24 is not in module editing mode),
it is possible to configure the DM-24 so that pressing
and holding the

SEL

key of a module for more than

two seconds will automatically select that module’s
editing screen (“Select MODULE Return” on
page 21)
.

It is also possible to select the module for editing
(when the

MODULE

screen (or the

DYNAMICS

screen)

is displayed) by touching the module’s fader, rather
than pressing the SEL key (“Fader Auto MODULE
Select” on page 21
).
