pressed and released quickly, they are latching, but if
pressed and held, they are non-latching. Indicators
show the active status of these keys.
Slate settings
The DM-24 allows you to define the “slate”—the
destination of the talkback microphone.
From the MONITOR screen, press the third soft key
( OSC/COM ) to bring up the oscillator and slate setting
screens.
Use the SLATE panel in this screen to choose which
aux sends, output busses and stereo channels will be
included in the slate.
Use the cursor keys to move along the row, and the
ENTER key to include and uninclude the busses,
Lineup oscillator
The DM-24 includes a lineup oscillator, which can be
assigned in the same way as the slate output. In addition to being able to choose the outputs to
which the oscillator is sent, POD 1 allows the oscilla-
tor frequency to be selected (
100Hz , 440Hz , 1kHz or
10kHz ).
The level of the oscillator is also variable (POD 2)
from
–36.0dBFS to 0.0dBFS in 0.5dB steps.
Use soft key 1 to turn the oscillator on (button is in
inverse video) and off.
Meters and faders
As well as the stereo meters, the DM-24 provides on-
screen metering for all modules in the console.
With the SHIFT indicator unlit, press the METER/
FADER key.
The following screen shows the metering for the
input channels:
The METERING POINT for channels 1 through 32
( CHANNEL ) can be set as INPUT (before the digital trim
and after the input selection), PRE (pre-fader and
before any assignable send/return insert), or POST
(post-fader, and post any assignable send/return
insert).
The MASTER (aux sends, busses, stereo) metering
point can also be set: INPUT (buss level, before any
compressor insertion), PRE (pre-fader and post any
compressor insertion), and POST (post fader).
Since only 24 channels can be shown on screen at
once, there is a choice of what will be metered on
screen at any one time: either the 24 track returns, the
