5.6.1 Copying channel characteristics

For a fast adjustment of similar channels, the mixer offers the possi-
bility to copy all or specific settings of a channel to other channels�
1) Select the input channel or sum channel to be copied�
2) Call up any screen view which includes the button "Copy", such as
the view "Assign" or "Channel" or a view for sound adjustment
or dynamic-range processing�
3) Tap the button "Copy"� The screen view for the copy function will
be called up� In this view, the channel currently selected (= copy
source) will flash; in addition, the corresponding key will flash as
well�
4) Use the keys (7, 8, 11) or tap the appropriate field on the screen
to select the channels to which the settings are to be copied� The
keys of the channels selected will light up and the lettering of the
corresponding buttons will change to "ON"�
To deselect an unintentionally selected channel, press the key again�
5) Use the options at the bottom of the screen to define the settings to
be copied� Tap the fields to tick-select (✓) the settings to be copied�
To remove a tick, tap the field again; the corresponding settings of
this field will then not be copied to the channels selected�
Note: The option "Gain" does not refer to the input gain via the control
GAIN (1) as described in chapter 5�1 but to the volume adjustment of the
channel via the fader (24)�
6) To start copying, press the key ENTER (20) or tap the button "Copy"
in the lower right of the screen�
To cancel the copy process, select a different view�
7) To select a different channel as the copy source without exiting the
copy view, tap the button "Previous Channel" or "Next Channel"�

5.7 Mixing signals
Once the input signals have been matched and, if required, their
dynamic range has been processed and their sound adjusted, the
actual task of a mixer will start: adding the signals to the outputs� As
a matter of course, there is no clear-cut order of all operating steps:
Sometimes, the sum channel MAIN is already used during sound
adjustment in order to monitor, via the amplifier system, the channel
to be set; on the other hand, it is sometimes necessary to adjust the
settings of an input channel during mixing�

The right side of both mixer views always shows the fader for the sum
channel MAIN� This fader can be operated via the motor fader when
"MAIN" has been selected; however, it is also possible to adjust the
fader with the rotary knob MAIN (25) at any time� To the left of the
rotary knob MAIN, a rotary control for each subgroup is available that
can be used to adjust the level of the respective subgroup� For the
stereo inputs CH 17/18 and CH 19/ 20, two additional rotary controls
(2) are provided�
To set the signal parts of a channel for the sum
signal MAIN and /or for the subgroups (depending on
☞
the assignment defined chapter 5�3), the faders
(sliders) of all channels can be used� The motor fader
of the mixer (24) is always assigned to the channel
currently selected; when another channel is select-
ed, the motor fader will immediately be set to the current value of this channel� The channel fader is
available on various screen views: tap and drag the
channel fader to use it as an alternative to the motor
fader� Above the fader, the gain value for the current
level setting is shown (in dB)� A small bar beneath
the gain value indicates the current position of the
signal in the stereo panorama� The current signal
level (ahead of the fader) is indicated to the right
of the slider� The boxes ,

channel MAIN� Above this indication, coloured boxes
are shown; they indicate whether a noise gate (yellow),
a compressor (green) or an equalizer (blue) is used
and whether the phantom power supply is activated
