Additional head amp setting functions when changing the input patching

When you change the input patching, you can now choose whether the HA (Head Amp) settings of the port you patched will be used, or whether the HA settings of the channel will be copied to the port you patched.

Make this selection in the PORT SELECT popup window and the PATCH/NAME popup window.

NOTE

You can also choose whether the HA settings from CL Editor will be used without change or copied from the channel. For details, refer to the CL Editor Owner’s Manual.

■ Settings in the PORT SELECT popup window

1. In the OVERVIEW screen, press the GAIN/PATCH field to access the GAIN/PATCH

popup window.

2. Press the PATCH button (or INPUT PORT button) to access the PORT SELECT popup

window.

3. Press a button in the HA INFO field to specify whether the HA settings of the port

or the HA settings of the channel will take priority.

1 TAKE FROM PORT button

The HA settings of the port will take priority. Even if you change the patching, the HA settings of the port will remain unchanged.

2 TAKE FROM CHANNEL button

The HA settings of the channel will take priority. The HA settings of the port that had been previously patched will be copied to the newly-patched port.

A confirmation dialog box will appear when you switch buttons.

If an input without a HA is patched to the input channel, the dialog box is not shown.

V1.7 Supplementary Manual

If the channel’s HA settings are selected, the following HA settings will be copied from the channel to the port that is patched. If you patch the input channel from an input that does not have these settings (i.e., that does not have a HA), the default values will be specified.

HA gain amount –6 dB
