Channels and Strips

The System 5-B faders have a backstop switch past the bottom of their travel. Press 
Solo Ctrl on the Center Section to open the Solo Control Panel and select Backstop 
PFL to enable this feature. Then pull and hold a fader into the backstop to route the sig-
nal’s PFL level to the Solo bus. Release the fader to cancel that fader’s routing to the Solo 
bus. Backstop PFL does not affect normal solo operations and can be used on group 
masters to PFL a Control Group. Deactivating Backstop PFL cancels the mode 

The Wave key has three functions:

•

Press the Wave key to bring the Strip (both Swap and Main channels) to the 
center Strip (see Chapter 6: CM402 Center Section).

•

Press the Wave key when selecting Strips and channels for Layouts, Strip 
Expand, Strip Lock, or other operations.

•

Like a shift key, the Wave key modifies other keys.

When All mode is active on a Strip, that Strip’s function and Swap keys operate on all 
Strips currently mapped to the console. This mode is for changing the display only. For 
example, when setting EQ on a Strip, the other displayed EQ filters on other Strips are 
not changed.

To activate All mode:

1. Hold down the Wave key and press the Clear key at the top of the Strip (above 

the top knob’s display).

All appears above Clear.

2. Press any function key (i.e., EQ, Dyn, etc.) on that Strip and all knobsets on the 

console display that function. 

3. Press Swap to toggle all Strips between their Main and Swap levels.

4. Hold down the Wave key and press the Clear key again to disable All mode.

The All key on the CM401 now sets all strips to All Mode (see page 83).
