Chapter 9 Automix

Chapter 9

Updating Automix

When using Automix, it is not necessary to mix all track

faders simultaneously. You can mix just the first eight tracks,

for example, and then go back and mix the next eight tracks.

Or, select a combination of faders that is most comfortable

for you. After the first Automix pass, you can go back and

update the mix, either on a channel-by-channel basis, or

based on a particular section of your song.

Updating Automix for a Selected

Group of Faders

You can revise your Automix data at any time, easily

updating any track or combination of tracks. All you need to

do is disable Automix Record for the channels you are

satisfied with.

1. Press [ZERO] to rewind to the beginning of the song.

2. Confirm that Automix mode is on. The AUTOMIX

button should be lit.

3. Hold [AUTOMIX], and press the Track SELECT button

for the Tracks whose Automix data you are satisfied

with, so they are lit, but not blinking. The SELECT

buttons for the track or tracks you want to update should

be blinking, indicating Automix recording is enabled.

4. Hold [SCENE] and press [REC]. The AUTOMIX

indicator blinks, showing Automix recording is enabled.

5. Make sure the FADER/MUTE indicator is set to “TR” for

tracks.

6. Adjust the track faders for the track you wish to update.

Since the other track faders are now set to Automix

playback, you don’t need to touch them at all.

7. Press [PLAY] to begin recording Automix data.

8. While the song is playing, move the track faders to adjust

the mix of your song as you like. New Automix data will

only be recorded for those faders that are moved during

song playback.

9. When the song is finished, press [STOP]. Automix

markers will appear in the Playlist display where

Automix data was created.

Updating Automix for a Section of a

Song

To update Automix data for a section of a song, you must

first change the Fader Match setting from “Jump” (the

default setting), to “Null.” See the following section

“Understanding Fader Match.”

1. Change the Fader Match setting to “Null.” See "Fader

Match," p. 243.

2. Move to the location in the song where you wish to re-

record realtime Automix.

3. Confirm that Automix mode is on. The AUTOMIX

button should be lit.

4. Decide which track fader’s movement you want to

record using Automix. While pressing [AUTOMIX],

press the Track SELECT button for the Tracks you want

to mix so they are blinking.

5. Hold [SCENE] and press [REC]. The AUTOMIX

indicator blinks, showing Automix recording is enabled.

6. Make sure the FADER/MUTE indicator is set to “TR” for

tracks.

7. While watching the Fader/Panning display for track

faders, slowly raise the physical faders until they match

the stored fader level. The physical fader position is

represented on the screen by a black dot, whereas the

stored track level is represented by an empty circle.

8. Press [PLAY] to begin recording Automix data.

9. While the song is playing, move the track faders to adjust

the mix of your song as you like. New Automix data will

only be recorded for those faders that are moved during

song playback.

10.When the song is finished, press [STOP]. Automix

markers will appear in the Playlist display where

Automix data was created.

Understanding Fader Match

During Automix playback, or when you use [FADER/

MUTE] to reassign the physical faders from track channels to

input channels, there will be times when the physical fader

positions may not correspond to their actual stored volume

settings. In such instances, the position of each fader is

represented by a black dot, and the actual level that is set is

represented by a white circle. Use the following procedure

when you wish to have the volume change as soon as the

faders are moved.
