Pairing input channels/track channels
Pad tracks 1–4 and track channels 9/10–15/16 are per-
manently paired.
However, you may also specify pairing for adjacent odd-
numbered/even-numbered input channels (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 
7/8) or track channels (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8). When two 
channels are paired, most of their parameters will be 
linked, so that operating one of the channels will cause 
the same setting to occur on the other channel as well.
This is convenient when you are recording a stereo audio 
source, or when you want to play back two bus-recorded 
tracks as a single stereo track.
1
Hold down the [INPUT SEL] key (or [TRACK 
SEL] key) of one channel that you want to 
pair, and then press the other [INPUT SEL] 
key (or [TRACK SEL] key).
A popup window will appear, asking you to confirm 
the pairing.
2
Move the cursor to one of the following but-
tons and press the [ENTER] key.
INPUT (TRACK) x 
 y (x= odd number, 
y= even number)........ Copy the settings of input (track) 
channel x to y, and pair them.
INPUT (TRACK) y 
 x (x= odd number, 
y= even number)........ Copy the settings of input (track) 
channel y to x, and pair them.
RESET BOTH .............. Initialize both input (track) chan-
nels, and pair them.
CANCEL..................... Cancel pairing.
When input channels are paired, all mix parameters 
other than the [GAIN] knob and phase/pan settings 
will be linked.
When track channels are paired, all mix parameters 
other than the phase/pan settings will be paired. 
Operating just the odd-numbered fader will adjust 
the level of both odd-numbered/even-numbered 
channels. (While channels are paired, the even-
numbered fader has no effect.)
3
To defeat pairing, hold down the [INPUT SEL] 
key (or [TRACK SEL] key) of one of the chan-
nels, and press the other [INPUT SEL] key (or 
[TRACK SEL] key).
A popup window will ask you to confirm that you 
want to cancel pairing.
4
To cancel pairing, press the OK button. If you 
decide not to cancel pairing, move the cursor 
to the CANCEL button and press the [ENTER] 
key.
Tip!
Tip!
In the case of paired channels, setting the pan to far left 
or far right will produce nominal level. (The levels before 
and after passing through Pan will be the same.) In the 
case of paired channels, setting the pan to center will 
produce nominal level.
