[INS] Area
The insertion mode allows you to send a signal to an external device when
an audio option card is installed in SLOT 3 and the [INSERT] mode is
selected for [SLOT 3] in the [D-I/O>TO SLOT] window. You can only use the
AD/DA card or the AES/EBU card for this purpose. This signal is routed to an
outboard device, and then it is returned to the DA7 via SLOT 3. You can
return to AUX returns 1 through 6, buses 1 through 8, or MASTER L/R.
[LINK] Area
There are two buttons in the [LINK] area of the window, an button and
a button. Cursor to the button, and press the ENTER button to
toggle the button to an button. This will preset the link function for
the channel. The button toggles to the (stereo) button, if desired.
Activating link or stereo for an odd-numbered channel joins it with the
channel to the right, while activating link or stereo for an even-numbered
channel joins it with the channel to the left.
The link function joins adjacent channels to create a pair, while respecting
the current individual channel settings (such as EQ and DYN), including
fader and pan position. The stereo function joins adjacent channels to create
a stereo pair, and overwrites the even-numbered channel settings with the
current odd-numbered channel settings for phantom power, phase, gain, aux
send, fader group, mute group, equalizer, dynamics, delay, channel on or off,
and fader.
When and are displayed, simultaneously pressing both channel
SELECT buttons, or toggling to will link the channels. When and
are displayed, simultaneously pressing both channel SELECT buttons,
or toggling to will create a stereo pair. Simultaneously pressing the
SELECT buttons, once the channels have been joined, will cancel the
setting.
When the channels are joined, either as a linked pair or a stereo pair, the
Channel Faders will operate as a pair. Adjusting one of the faders will
automatically adjust the other.
The channel area in the [taskbar] of the LCD screen windows will show
both channel numbers.
