4 - The PatchMix DSP Mixer
Mixer Strip Creation
Level, Pan, Solo & Mute Controls
The Pan control comes before the Level Control
Pan Controlsand Aux Sends in the signal �ow. On stereo strips
we use an unconventional pan section with two
pan pots � one for the left part of the signal and
one for the right part of the signal. This feature
allows you to independently position both sides of
Aux Send the stereo signal. A conventional stereo balance
Amount control only allows you to turn down one side or
the other.Controls
The Mute button does just what you would
expectNpress the button and the sound from that
channel is cut off. Pressing the Solo button while
the Mute button is pressed allows you to hear the
channel until solo is turned off.
The Solo button allows you to listen to only that
channel while muting the rest of the mixerOs Level Control
output. If multiple solo buttons are pressed, you
will hear all soloed channels and the non-soloed
channels will all be muted.
The mute status is remembered if a muted channel
is soloed. When the channel solo is turned off, the Mute & Solo
channel reverts to being muted.Buttons
The Level Control for the strip is an attenuation
control that can also provide up to +12dB of gain.
0db is the unity gain setting. You can also type
numeric values into the displays to set the level.
At the very bottom is the Scribble Strip text area,
into which you can type any short piece of text, Scribble Strip
thus naming the strip, i.e. Ovocals�, Obass�,
Odrums� and so on.
