5.4 Channel Linking (Updated)
Version 2.0 provides advanced channel
linking capability. Both the VFD and the
Link Setup Window have been modified to
accommodate new settings. Link is still
initiated by either first selecting two chan-
nels and then selecting OChannel Link��
under Channels in the upper menu bar, or
by pressing and holding two adjacent chan-
nel SELECT buttons for two seconds, and
then following directions in the Fat Chan-
nels Display. An additional link initiation
may be made using the Channel List fea-
ture (see page AD-32).
Note: You can select each channel in a
linked pair individually. If you want to copy
channel settings to a linked pair, you must
select both channels (Shift-Select) and
then paste the settings.
The features are outlined as follows:
Any two (Odd/even or Even/odd) contigu-
ous channel strips may be linked:
(For example, channels 5 and 6, or FX1
and FX2; or channels 6 and 7, or Group
Masters 2 and 3.) A channel may be paired
with only one other channel strip in its bank.
If channel 5 is linked with channel 4, it may
not be simultaneously linked with channel 6.
Channels may be paired across banks (e.g.
ch 24 & ch25), if necessary, but itOs not rec-
AD-37ommended for typical applications.
