Pairing Channels
Input Channels, Bus Outs, and Aux Sends can be paired for stereo operation. Input Chan-
nels can be paired either horizontally, that is, adjacent odd-even channels on the same Layer
(e.g., 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, etc) or vertically, that is, counterpart channels on adjacent Layers (e.g.,
1-25, 2-26, 49-73, 50-74, etc). Bus Outs and Aux Sends can be paired only horizontally.
Pairing Channels by Using the [SEL] Buttons
Only horizontal pairing can be set by using the [SEL] buttons.
1
Use the LAYER buttons to select the Layer containing the channels that you
want to pair.

While holding down the [SEL] button of the first channel, press the [SEL] but-
ton of the second channel.
The settings of the first channel are copied to the second channel and the channels are
paired. The [SEL] button indicator of the currently selected channel lights up, while the
[SEL] button indicator of the other channel flashes.
To cancel a pair, while holding down the [SEL] button of the first channel, press the [SEL]
button of the second channel.
The following channel parameters are copied, and controlled together, when channels are
paired: Fader, On/Off, Insert On/Off, Aux On/Off, Aux Send Mode, Aux Send Level, Aux
Pre/Post, Aux Pre Point, Gate parameters, Compressor parameters, EQ parameters, Fader
group, Mute group, EQ group, Comp group, Solo, Solo Safe, [AUTO] button, Fade Time,
Recall Safe, Bus to Stereo On/Off, Bus to Stereo Level.
The following channel parameters are not copied, or controlled together, when channels are
paired: Input Patch, Insert Patch, Output Patch, Comp Position, Phase, Delay On/Off,
Delay Time, Delay Feedback, Delay Mix, Routing, Pan, Follow Pan, Surround Pan, Bus to
Stereo Pan, Aux Send Pan, Balance.
When channels are paired, the Attenuator value is copied, but the changes made in the
Attenuator page are not reflected in the pair partner. However, if you change the values in
the EQ Edit page, Parameter view page, or on the control surface, the changes will be
reflected in the pair partner while maintaining the relative level difference.
When Aux Send Mode is set to Fixed, Aux Send On/Off is not controlled together.
Check the Routing ST Pair Link check box to link the routing from the paired channels to
the Stereo Bus. See “Setting Preferences” on page 230 for more information.
