When a pan slider is set to the right end (R20), the signal for
that channel is sent only to the right channel of the stereo
bus. It is not sent to the left channel of the stereo bus.

Faders and level meters
Use the faders for each channel to adjust the levels of the
channel signal sent to the stereo bus. Use the master fader
to adjust the master output level.
The channel level meters show their signal levels. The master
level meters show the levels of the mixed signal.
The fader level display area (bottom of
0
) shows the fader
gain value.
The channel and master level meters show green bars for
values less than −12 dB, yellow bars for −12 dB to −6 dB, and
red bars for values greater than −6 dB.
Each level meter has an overload indicator at its top.
Range: +6 dB to −∞ (default: 0 dB)
NOTE
•
Using the mouse, drag a fader to adjust its level. Move the
fader up to increase the level or down to decrease it.
•
Double-click a fader to return it to its default (0 dB) position.
•
The channel meters show the levels before being adjusted
by the faders. Level meters are not affected by fader adjust-
ments or even their channels being muted.

LINK buttons
Turn a LINK button on to combine two adjacent channels
(odd and even) into a single stereo channel.
When stereo link mode is enabled, the buttons, knobs and
faders of the two channels are combined. The channel level
meters are also shown as a stereo pair.
When linked, the LINK button lights. (Default: off)
When a LINK button is enabled (combining two adjacent
channels as a stereo channel), the settings become as
follows.
Analog X: If either the odd or even channel is turned on,
this turns on. If both the odd and even channels are off,
this turns off. In addition, the button name changes to
“Analog X-Y” (“X” is the odd channel number and “Y” is the
even channel number).
PHASE: The settings are not combined. The settings of the
channels do not change.
EQ: The setting of the odd-numbered channel is applied.
COMP: The setting of the odd-numbered channel is
applied.
SOLO: The setting of the odd-numbered channel is
applied.
MUTE: The setting of the odd-numbered channel is
applied.
Pan sliders: The settings are not combined. The setting of
each channel can be set independently.
Level faders: The setting of the odd-numbered channel is
applied.
• Turn a LINK button off to split a single stereo channel into
two mono channels. The settings for each of the mono
channels become as follows.
Analog X-Y: If on when the LINK button is turned off, the
odd channel stays on, but the even channel turns off. If
off when the LINK button is turned off, both channels
stay off.
PHASE: The settings are not changed. The setting of each
channel stays as it was.
EQ: The settings of both channels stay the same as the
combined stereo channel.
COMP: The settings of both channels stay the same as the
combined stereo channel.
SOLO: If on when the LINK button is turned off, this stays
on for both channels. If off when the LINK button is
turned off, both channels stay off.
MUTE: If on when the LINK button is turned off, this stays
on for both channels. If off when the LINK button is
turned off, both channels stay off.
Pan sliders: These stay the same when the LINK button is
turned off.
Level faders: The settings of both channels stay the same
as the combined stereo channel.
