Controlling the Volume Automatically
(Auto Mixing)
The volume adjustments that would normally be done by the
operator can be controlled automatically (auto mixing function).
Since this lets you leave the volume adjustments up to the V-160HD,
it can be used in situations where there is no dedicated operator.
This is especially useful for meetings, discussions, debates, and other
situations where multiple microphones are used.

Press the [AUTO MIXING] button to turn the auto mixing
function on (lit).
2 .
[MENU] button
Ó
select “AUDIO AUTO MIXING,” and
press the [VALUE] knob.
The AUDIO AUTO MIXING menu appears.
3 .
Specify whether the selected audio is affected or is not
affected by auto mixing.
Use the [VALUE] knob to select the audio whose setting you
want to specify.
Use the [VALUE] knob to specify whether the selected audio
is affected (ENABLE) or is not affected (DISABLE) by auto
mixing, and press the [VALUE] knob.
For audio that does not require auto mixing, such as background
music, choose “DISABLE.”
4 .
Specify the priority level for volume-level distribution.
If there is audio 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 that audio to emphasize it, and lower the
weight level for other audio.
Use the [VALUE] knob to select “WEIGHT,” and press the
[VALUE] knob.
Use the [VALUE] knob to set the priority level for volume-level
distribution (from 0 to 100%), and press the [VALUE] knob.
When air-conditioner noise or the like is a concern, specify the
weight level to a low value.

MIXING] button once again.
