DM2000V2 Quick Start Guide
27/28
DM2000V2 Short-Cut List
Using the ‘SEL’ switches
1. CHANNEL PAIR
Hold [SEL] for one channel and press [SEL] for the adjacent channel to make a stereo pair. This works for input and output
channels, so long as the left side is an odd number and the right side is an even number. The channel with the [SEL] button
you hold first is the master channel for the pair: its settings are copied to the other channel (except for pan and bus routing
settings). Repeating this action breaks the stereo pair, to make the channels mono again.
2. CHANNEL NAME DISPLAY
To view the long name for a channel, press and hold its [SEL] button for more than a second. The name will be displayed in
the fluorescent window above the faders.
3. CHANNEL COPY
Select the source channel with its [SEL] button, then press the [CHANNEL COPY] button (in the SELECTED CHANNEL
area). Then press the [SEL] button of the destination channel and press [PASTE].
Other Short-Cuts
1. EQ Gain to 0dB
To reset the gain of an EQ band to 0dB, press and hold the [FREQUENCY/Q] encoder for one second.
2. EQ Reset
To return the whole Parametric EQ for a channel to its default settings, press the [FREQUENCY/Q] encoders for the LOW
and HIGH bands at the same time.
3. AUX ON/OFF
To access the AUX ON/OFF buttons quickly, press and hold the required [AUX# SELECT] button. Then the [ON] buttons
above the faders become the AUX ON buttons for the selected Aux.
4. AUX SOLO
To solo an AUX MASTER while still viewing an INPUT FADER LAYER, press the required [AUX# SELECT] button once to
select it, and once again to SOLO it. Pressing a third time will cancel the SOLO. While the AUX is in SOLO, its SELECT but-
ton will flash.
5. Copy STEREO Mix to an AUX
Press and hold an INPUT FADER LAYER button, then press an [AUX# SELECT] button, and click YES in the confirmation
box on the LCD. This copies the fader levels to the selected AUX sends. Make sure the Aux sends are all PRE by clicking the
[GLOBAL PRE] button on the SEND1-24 page in the AUX DISPLAY menu.
6. GEQ edit on Faders
In the GEQ EDIT page (EFFECTS/PLUG-INS menu), click one of the [FADER ASSIGN] buttons to access the GEQ bands
on the faders. When you navigate away from this page, the faders return to their normal mode, but the cursor position is
remembered, so next time the GEQ EDIT page is accessed, you only need to press [ENTER] to get fader control.
7. SCENE FADE TIME Copy
To assign the same fade time to all channels in a scene, first enter the required FADE TIME for one channel, then double-
click [ENTER] to copy the time to all the other input or output channels.
NOTE:
The parameters which are copied are determined on the PREFERENCES 2 page in the SETUP menu.
TIP:
This can be useful for creating a MIX-MINUS. First set an AUX to ALL NOMINAL, using the button at the top of the SEND1-
24 page in the AUX DISPLAY menu, then hold the AUX SELECT button to switch off the send for the required ‘minus’ channel.
NOTE:
This function can be disabled in the SOLO page of the MONITOR menu, with the AUX/SOLO LINK option.
NOTE:
Repeat the same procedure for each fader layer to copy the whole mix to the Aux sends, as only one layer is copied at a time.
TIP:
This is useful for making a quick headphone mix in a recording session (where AUX 11 and 12 can be sent directly to the STU-
DIO MONITOR OUT), or making a quick stage-monitor mix for a guest musician at a live performance.
