Thank you for purchasing the CS1D. This booklet
explains the functionality that was added or changed in
version 1.4 of the PM1D software.
New functionality in system software V1.4
New functionality in system software V1.4
The following functionality and specifications have been
added in version 1.4 of the PM1D system software.
•
Digital gain has been added to input channels/
insert inputs
Digital gain has been added to input channels and
insert inputs, allowing you adjust the input sensitivity in the digital domain. Digital gain can be used in
input channels and insert inputs to which an AD
card, digital I/O card, 2TR IN, GEQ, or EFF are
assigned.
Digital gain has been added to the six 2TR IN inputs.
The sensitivity of the signal that is input to each 2TR
IN can be adjusted in the digital domain, independently for L and R.
•
BALANCE has been added to PAN mode of the
input channels
The PAN parameter of an input channel can now be
switched to a BALANCE parameter.
For adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered input
channels, you can switch the PAN parameter to a
BALANCE parameter.
•
New capability to temporarily set paired input
channels/ST IN channels to monaural
The signals from paired input channels or ST IN
channels can now be converted into monaural. As
the monaural conversion method, you can select LMONO (only the signal of the odd-numbered channel), R-MONO (only the signal of the even-numbered channel), or L,R-MONO (the signals of both
channels mixed).
•
M/S decoding functionality
“M/S decoding functionality” has been added, allowing a two-channel signal input from a MS mic to be
converted into a L/R signal
•
Tr acking Recall function
The newly added “Tracking Recall” function lets you
add a previously-specified offset value to the value of
each fader when you recall a scene.
Changes
•
In the PAN/ROUTING function CH to MIX
screen, the send level knob to the MATRIX bus is
now displayed in gray to match the color of the
encoder on the CS1D. This makes it easier to distinguish the MIX send level knob from the send
level knob of the MATRIX/ST ROUTING function that sends the signal to the MATRIX bus.
•
The rotational angle of the encoder-type knobs in
the screen now matches the angle of the encoder
knobs of the CS1D front panel. The index markings have changed in conjunction with this.
•
Since V1.4 adds BALANCE to the PAN mode, the
line in the screen that indicates the encoder knob
position is now displayed in red for PAN (same as
before) and white for BALANCE, to make it easier to distinguish the setting. In the MATRIX/ST
function MATRIX/ST ROUTING screen as well,
the encoder knob positions are displayed in red
for PAN (same as before) and white for BALANCE.
Digital gain for input channels/insert inputs
Digital gain has been added to input channels or insert
inputs that are assigned to AD cards, digital I/O cards,
2TR IN, GEQ, or EFF. By using this, the input sensitivity
can be adjusted in the digital domain even for input
sources that do not have an analog head amp.
Since digital gain has been added, the input channel/
insert input displays in the IN HA/INSERT, IN CH
VIEW, INPUT UNIT, and MONITOR A/MONITOR B
screens have changed as follows.

Digital gain can be used to adjust the input sensitivity in
a range of +10 dB– –20 dB (the knob will not turn any
further to the right beyond –20 dB).
■
If the output of an effect return is assigned
Digital gain
Only in the case of the digital gain for an input channel,
you can also use the [GAIN] encoder of the CS1D's
INPUT block to adjust the setting. In this case as well,
the adjustable range for the input is +10 dB– –20 dB (the
knob will not turn any further to the right beyond –20
dB). Internally, the input sensitivity is adjusted in a gain
range of –10 dB to +20 dB. If you want a digital source to
be input at nominal level, set the GAIN knob in the
screen to 0 dB.

If a mic/line input card (LMY2-ML) is assigned to
an input channel/insert input, the screen will show
an analog gain knob (range: +10 dB– –68 dB), just
as in the previous software version.
If TB (talkback) is assigned to an input channel/
insert input, the input level will be adjusted by the
panel TALKBACK [LEVEL] volume, just as in the
previous software version.

Digital gain for input channels/insert inputs
If 2TR IN is assigned to an input channel/insert
input, the gain settings of the 2TR IN screen and
the HA/INSERT screen will be linked. These settings cannot be set to different positions.
The digital gain of an input channel/insert input to
which 2TR IN is assigned will not be saved in the
scene memory.
Procedure
To adjust the digital gain of an input channel/insert
input, use the following procedure.
1. In the INPUT PATCH screen (IN PATCH function),
assign either an ML card or a source other than TB
to the desired input channel/insert input.
2. Access the corresponding screen of the IN HA/
INSERT function.
The following illustration shown an example of
when an AD card (LMY4-AD) is assigned to the
input channel/insert input.
Hint
Settings for the digital gain of an input card are saved
in the unit library. Also, if the UNIT parameters of
the corresponding channel are set to Recall Safe, the
Recall Safe setting will also apply to the digital gain of
the input card.
Settings for the digital gain of EFF/GEQ are saved in
the scene memory. If the corresponding internal
effect/GEQ is set to Recall Safe, the Recall Safe setting
will also apply to the digital gain of the corresponding EFF/GEQ.
4. If you want to link the gain setting of adjacent
channels, click GAIN GANG switch to turn it on.
If the GAIN GANG button is on, adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered channels will have their gain
setting linked (while maintaining the offset value).
3. Move the cursor to the GAIN knob in the screen,
and turn the [DATA] encoder to adjust the digital
gain.
In the case of an input channel, you can also use the
[GAIN] encoder in the INPUT block of the CS1D, or
the [GAIN] encoder in the SELECTED INPUT
CHANNEL block.
You can also use the GAIN GANG button to link
analog gain and digital gain. However, when either
the analog gain or the digital gain reaches the limit
of its adjustment, neither channel will be adjustable
beyond this point.

PM1D Manager for Windows Operating manual
Digital gain added to 2TR IN
Digital gain has been added to the six 2TR IN inputs,
allowing you to adjust the input sensitivity in the digital
domain. The sensitivity of the signal that is input to each
2TR IN can be adjusted independently for L and R.
Hint
Digital gain is valid even if ANALOG is selected as
the source for 2TR IN 1 or 2TR IN 2. In this case, the
setting adjusts the sensitivity after AD conversion.
In conjunction with this, the display in the 2TR IN
screen (MON/CUE function) has changed as follows.
BALANCE control for input channels/ST IN channels
As necessary, you can now control the BALANCE
parameter instead of the PAN parameter for adjacent
odd-numbered/even-numbered input channels or ST IN
channels.
To do this, access the PAN/ROUTING function CH to
MIX screen, and turn on the PAN MODE section BALANCE button.
BALANCE button
When the BALANCE button is on, the signal flow from
those two channels to the various buses will change as
follows.
■
STEREO bus
The PAN parameter that sends the signal to the STEREO
bus will change to a BALANCE parameter. (A BAL knob
will be displayed instead of a PAN knob in the PAN/
ROUTING function CH to MIX screen.)
INPUT CHANNEL 1
ON
BALANCE
INPUT CHANNEL 2
ON
STEREO L
STEREO R
In this case, the signal of the odd-numbered input channel will be sent only to the L channel, and the signal of
the even-numbered input channel will be sent only to
the R channel. The BAL knob will adjust the volume of
the two channels in tandem.
6
■
VARI type MIX bus
If a VARI type MIX bus is paired, the PAN parameter of
the MIX bus will change to a BALANCE parameter. (A
BAL knob will be displayed instead of a PAN knob in the
PAN/ROUTING function CH to MIX screen.)
BAL knob
In this case, the signal of the odd-numbered input channel will be sent only to the odd-numbered MIX bus, and
the signal of the even-numbered input channel will be
sent only to the even-numbered MIX bus. The BAL
knob will adjust the volume of the two signals in tandem.
BALANCE control for input channels/ST IN channels
In addition, if the VARI PAN LINK button is on for
either of these two channels, the MIX bus BAL knob will
be linked with the STEREO bus BAL knob. If you operate either BAL knob of the STEREO bus or MIX bus, the
remaining three BAL knobs will operate in tandem.

Hint
Even if the BALANCE button is on, the signal that is
sent from those input channels to a VARI type MIX
bus will not be affected unless the MIX bus is paired.
■
FIX type MIX bus
If the FIXED MIX PAN button is on for either of the two
channels whose PAN MODE is set to BALANCE, the signal that flows from the corresponding input channel
through the BALANCE parameter will be sent to the FIX
type MIX bus. At this time, the signal of the odd-numbered input channel will be sent only to the odd-numbered MIX bus, and the signal of the even-numbered
input channel will be sent only to the even-numbered
MIX bus.

PM1D Manager for Windows Operating manual
Hint
Even if the BALANCE button is on, the signal that is
sent from those input channels to a FIX type MIX
bus will not be affected if the FIXED MIX PAN button is turned off for both channels.
In addition, the operation will change as follows if the
PAN MODE “BALANCE” button is on.
•
Of the two channels for which the BALANCE button
is turned on, if you save one of the channels in the
channel library, the PAN MODE setting will be saved
for the other channel even if it is not paired.
•
When you recall data from the channel library, the
PAN MODE or PAN value will not be recalled if the
PAN MODE setting differs between the recall source
and recall destination. However only if the recall destination is paired, the PAN MODE and PAN value
will be recalled.
•
When you copy channel data, the PAN MODE and
PAN value will not be copied if the PAN MODE setting differs between the copy source and copy destination. However, the PAN MODE and PAN value
will be copied only if the copy destination is paired.
•
When recalling a channel library or copying a channel, if the channel that is not being recalled or copied
is set to a PAN mode of BALANCE or if VARI PAN
LINK is turned on, the MIX “BALANCE” value will
be the same as the TO ST “BALANCE” in order to
avoid inconsistencies between the TO ST value and
MIX BALANCE value of the recalled or copied channels.
•
When recalling scene data from a scene memory, and
the PAN MODE setting of odd-numbered/evennumbered input channels does not match because
one of the channels is set to Recall Safe, the PAN
MODE or PAN values will not be recalled.
•
For an input channel whose MIX send is set to Recall
Safe, the PAN/BALANCE of the MIX send will also
be subject to Recall Safe. For this reason if the PAN
MODE settings of the recall source and recall destination do not match, it will not be possible to recall
the PAN MODE or PAN/BALANCE values.
•
In the case of an input channel in which the PAN
MODE is BALANCE and the MIX send is set to
Recall Safe, recalling a scene in which “PAN
MODE=BALANCE, VARI PAN LINK=on” will cause
the BALANCE value of the STEREO send to be
recalled, but the BALANCE of the MIX send will be
subject to Recall Safe. In this state, it is possible that
BALANCE values of the STEREO send and MIX
send will be inconsistent, so VARI PAN LINK will
therefore be forcibly switched off. The PAN parameter fade function (INPUT CH PANNING, located in
the SCENE function FADE TIME screen) can also be
used when the BALANCE button is on. However,
you must enable INPUT CH PANNING for both the
odd-numbered and even-numbered channels.
•
If the PAN MODE is switched from PAN to BALANCE (or vice versa) while the PAN parameter fade
function is being executed, the PAN parameter fade
function will be aborted for that channel.
Procedure
Here's the procedure for operating the BALANCE
parameter of input channels/ST IN channels.
1. Access the PAN/ROUTING function CH to MIX
screen.
2. In the VARI & FIX area, turn on the TO ST button
for adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered channels or for a ST IN channel.
3. In the PAN MODE area, turn on the BALANCE button of the corresponding channels.
The PAN knobs in the screen (position indicator displayed in red) will change to BAL knobs (position
indicator displayed in white), and will function as
the balance parameter.
Hint
The BALANCE parameter is valid even if you do not
enable pairing between the input channels.
4. Move the cursor to one of the BAL knobs, and turn
the [DATA] encoder to adjust the value of the BALANCE parameter.
The BAL knobs of both channels will move in tandem.
The BALANCE parameter can also be controlled
from the INPUT block [PAN] encoder on the CS1D's
front panel, or from the SELECTED INPUT CHANNEL block [PAN] encoder. In this case, the LEDs surrounding the [PAN] encoder will display as follows.

Temporary monaural setting for paired input channels/ST IN channels
The input signal from paired input channels or ST IN
channels can now be temporarily converted to monaural. You can select one of the following three modes.
■
Set to L-MONO
The channels will remain paired, but the signal will temporarily become a monaural signal containing only the
odd-numbered channel.
The [ON] switch of the even-numbered channel will be
forced off, and the PAN (BALANCE) of the odd-numbered channel will be set to the center.

Even if L-MONO or R-MONO is selected, you can
edit the parameters of the channel that was forced
off. (However, the [ON] switch will be fixed at Off
until you defeat the L-MONO or R-MONO setting,
and cannot be changed.)
A new preference setting [L,R-MONO SELECT ON
PANEL] has been added to the UTILITY function
PREFERENCE screen, allowing you to switch to the
LR-MONO setting from the front panel.
Front panel operating procedure
Here's how paired input channels/ST IN channels can be
temporarily set to monaural from the front panel.
1. Access the UTILITY function PREFERENCE
screen, and turn on the L,R-MONO SELECT ON
PANEL button.
This allows the temporary change from stereo to
monaural to be made from the front panel.
In previous versions of the system software, it was
always possible to switch between PAIR and
MONO from the front panel. However, a new preference setting [PROHIBIT PAIR CHANGE ON
PANEL] has been added to the UTILITY function
PREFERENCE screen, allowing you to enable/disable this function from being operated from the
front panel.
You can use the same procedure as described above to
change one temporary monaural setting to a different
temporary monaural setting.
On the panel, the INPUT [NAME] indicator will blink
alternately between the name of the channel that was set to
temporary monaural and the name of the monaural mode.
For a channel that is turned off, the INPUT [NAME] indicator will dimly display the channel name. The [NAME]
indicator will also be displayed in the same way when these
channels are recalled to a DCA fader. For details on operation when a monaural setting is selected, refer to page 11.
• Name indicator
For L-MONO:
L ch
R ch
2. Specify pairing for any two adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered input channels.
3. Use the front panel [SEL] switches and [SHIFT]
switches to select one of the following three ways in
which the channels will be temporarily set to monaural.
•While holding down the [SHIFT]
switch Press and hold the [SEL]
switch of the odd-numbered (L)
channel ......................................... select L-MONO
•While holding down the [SHIFT]
switch Press and hold the [SEL]
switch of the even-numbered (R)
channel ........................................ select R-MONO
•While holding down the [SHIFT]
switch Press and hold the [SEL]
switches of both channels ............select LR-MONO
For the [SHIFT] switch described above, you may use
any of the [SHIFT] switches in CHANNEL SELECT section of the SELECTED INPUT CHANNEL block or
SELECTED OUT CHANNEL block, or the [SHIFT]
switch of the data entry block.
