The control surface is divided into areas whose function is, largely, dependent on bay
location. Each bay has assorted control elements with local feedback and/or support
from the two centrally located GUI display screens. The screens can be remoted via
integrated KVM switch on the rear panel.

strips across the 12-channel and
4-channel input bays provide the
operator’s ‘must have now’ controls.

processing areas, such as the D-zone
(dynamic), E-zone (EQ) and mix controls,
provide a more comprehensive control by

zone: sections for channel and bus
navigation and selection. For details, see
Chapter 7 “Navigation”.

buttons are on the right of the output fast
strips.

and POP group sections.

strips, A and B signal path monitoring,
communications, I-zone, surround
