DM2000V2 Quick Start Guide

12/28

PAN

The PAN and SURROUND PAN settings of the selected input channel can be edited here (Output channels do not 
have PAN). The L and R buttons show if the channel is the Left or Right side of a stereo pair. The Joystick is not active 
until a SURROUND MODE is selected. To do this, press the PAN/SURROUND [DISPLAY] button so the SURR 
MODE page is shown. Then choose the SURROUND MODE: 3-1 or 5.1 or 6.1. This will then convert some of the 
Buses (1-8) into Surround Buses.

DYNAMICS

Each input channel has both a GATE and a COMP. The output channels only have a COMP. When a [DYNAMICS] 
button or encoder is moved, the LCD shows the relevant GATE or COMP page. Gain Reduction meters and Key-In 
status can also be viewed here. Usefully, the COMP can be positioned pre-eq, pre-fader (post-eq) or post-fader.
