7.1 Overview
7.1.1 Display and Navigation Controls
The controls in this section are used in conjunction with the color screen, in order
to navigate and control the graphical elements it contains.
By including dedicated rotary controllers that correspond to adjacent controls on
the screen, as well as including cursor buttons, the user can quickly navigate and
control all of the color screen’s elements.
Color Screen: This color screen contains various displays that give visual
feedback for the operation of the console, and also allow the user to make various
adjustments not provided for by the dedicated hardware controls.
Rotary Encoders: These six rotary encoders are used to adjust various color
screen elements located directly above them. Each of the six rotary encoders
can be pushed inward to activate a button press function. This function is useful
when controlling color screen elements that have a dual “on/o” type state that
is best controlled by a button, as opposed to a variable state that is best adjusted
by a rotary control.
Screen selection buttons: These 10 illuminated buttons allow the user to
immediately navigate to any of 10 master screens that address dierent sections
of the console. The 10 sections that can be navigated to with these buttons are:
1. Home
2. Meters
3. Routing
4. Library
5. Eects
6. Setup
7. Monitor
8. Scenes
9. Mute Group
10. Utility
Page Select Buttons: These two buttons allow for left-right navigation among
the dierent “pages” contained within a screen set. A graphical tab display shows
which page you are currently on.
Layer Up/Down Buttons: On some screens, there are more parameters present
than can be adjusted by the 6 encoders underneath. In these cases, use the layer
up/down buttons to navigate through any additional layers contained on the
screen page.
L/R Meter: This dual 24-segment meter displays the audio signal level output
from the main bus of the console.
M/C SOLO Meter: This 24-segment meter displays the audio signal level
output from the mono bus of the console. When one or more channels are
currently soloed, the meter switches to displaying the level of the currently
soloed signal(s).
7.1.2 Console Screens
The color screen of the X32 RACK oers a wealth of visual feedback and hands
on control for the console. Whereas the dedicated front panel controls oer
immediate hands-on adjustments for the most important operations of a
channel, the color screens oer similarly immediate visual feedback for a selected
channel, as well as more global areas of the console.
The screens are divided into three main areas:
1. Global Screen Elements
2. Main Display
3. Rotary Encoder Elements
