TASCAM DM-3200 Owner’s Manual
Encoders
The 16 rotary encoders at the top of each channel
have a number of functions, which are selectable
using the four keys below the dial. There are three
settings for each key, depending on whether the key
is pressed alone, or with the
SHIFT
or
CTRL
key (at
the left of the DM-3200, above module 1).
As you can see, by using these keys, you can view
and set the levels of channels, busses, and aux sends,
even when you are not in that particular fader layer.
Also, the channel aux send, dynamics processor and
EQ setting modes are useful for convenient viewing
and setting of a number of channel parameters at
once.
TIP
If you are using aux sends 1 and 2 as a studio cue feed,
the
SHIFT
options provide a quick and easy way to set
up the cue mix.
Encoder mappings
The following table provides a reference to the use of
the encoders in the different modes:
Pan mode
Encoders 1 through 16 pan channel
modules 1 through 16 in the active fader layer (i.e.
they pan the channel whose fader is below the
encoder).
Aux mode
Encoders 1 through 8 set the corre-
spondingly-numbered aux send levels for the
selected module.
GATE/DYN dynamics processor mode
Encoders 1 through 6 control gate parameters: 1=
threshold level; 2= gate range; 3 = attack time; 4 =
hysteresis level; 5= hold time; 6 = decay (release)
time.
Encoders 9 through 13 control compressor/expander
parameters: 9 = threshold level; 10 = compression
ratio; 11 = attack time; 12 = release time; 13 = output
level.
