the faders on the top panel with a red
LED are actually the
channel faders. if you patch a lamp to
channel one, eg. 86@1* this will then appear on the first
fader (upper left side).
if you have lamps patched, ensure they are channels 1>48 or they will not work, also above the A/B faders there is two smaller ones that have numbers and a
threshold symbol at the bottom. this faders must be at the top or your lamps will
fade in over like 6 hours.
also if you push the
button above the A/B masters i think it says mode, in the
lcd screen it will have a number of options, push the flash key under 1 Scene 24 Sub.
you can not record to the faders at the top, only the 24 subs next to the control panel. you can get an unlock code from
strand (I think you have to pay for it) which turns the whole
desk into a sub
desk ie. 96 subs and no
channel faders.
hope this helps, pm if you have more questions id be happy to help.
