Audio Operations
Controlling Fader Operation Automatically (Auto Mixing)
This automatically controls fader operations that normally are performed by an operator (Auto Mixing feature). It lets you rely on the VR-4HD to perform
complex fader operations, enabling use in circumstances where no dedicated operator is assigned.
This is especially useful for meetings, discussions, debates, and other situations where multiple microphones are used.

Explanation
ON
Auto Mixing is used.
OFF
Auto Mixing is not used. Set channels where Auto
Mixing is not needed, such as background music
channels, to “OFF.”
7.
For each channel, select the weight level, then use the
[VALUE] knob to set the priority of volume-level distribution
(from 0 to 100).
While in a state where only ambient sound (background
sound) is being input, adjust so that the Auto Mixing
level meters for the respective channels (the meters on
the right side) fluctuate evenly.
5
If there is a channel that you want to make more prominent, such as
when you want to raise the volume level of an emcee microphone,
raise the weight level of the channel to emphasize and lower the
weight level for other channels.
This completes the settings for Auto Mixing.
MEMO
5
On channels for which Auto Mixing is set to “ON,” setting the
weight level to “0” results in no audio output.
5
When air-conditioner noise or the like is a concern, set the weight
level to a low value.
8.
Press the [SYSTEM SETUP] button several times to quit the
setup screen.
