2 - Basic operational concepts : Options radio button parameters, and the ENTER key to select and de-select settings. Figure 2.30: The SETUP option screen UPPER BAR DISPLAY This parameter has two options: TIMECODE and SYSTEM. When set to TIMECODE, the top right field of the display shows incoming timecode, and when set to SYSTEM, certain system parameters (clock source, solo mode, etc.) are displayed. Figure 2.31: Display top line set to SYSTEM The source of the timecode shown in this way is also selectable between the timecode used for automation sync (AUTOMATION Sync Source), timecode received at the 9-pin serial port (RS-422 IN TC), and any other timecode received. TIP The TASCAM Mixer Companion software can also display the timecode in a window on a personal computer. LOCATE DISPLAY mode This parameter deter- mines how a location entry will be shown on the display: in the timecode position (TIMECODE DISPLAY) or as a separate popup display in the center of the screen (LCD Screen Popup). ENCODER OPERATION mode When using the encoders ("Encoder behavior" on page 23), or the PODs, the parameter being edited may sometimes have too many values to allow easy setting using the encoder (for example, there are 127 different pan positions). Using the 1Step setting, one "click" of the encoders corresponds to one step in the parameter values. Using the Coarse option allows the changing of the parameter values to be accelerated, with fewer clicks of the encoder. See also "Encoder behavior" on page 23. LIBRARY DIRECT KEY OPERATION This parameter controls the type of library accessed by the RECALL and STORE, and the + and - keys in the LIBRARY section to the left of the screen. There are six choices: Snapshot refers to the overall mixer settings, Gate to the gate libraries, Comp/Expand to the dynamics processor settings for gate and expander effects, EQ to the equalization setting library, and Effect1 and Effect2 to the first and second internal effector settings, respectively. If the +/- Key Direct box is checked, this allows instant recall of a library entry selected using the + and - keys. OL/STATUS LED TYPE The OL/STATUS LED indicators above each fader can serve one of two purposes: firstly, if either of the two "overload" options (MIC/LINE or INPUT) is selected, they act as overload or signal detection indicators (depending on the setting) when the input level exceeds the level set in the LEVEL field (OVER, 0, -2, -4, -6, -8, -10, -12, -18, -30 or -42 (dB)). This status can be set for either the MIC/LINE inputs 1 through 16 or for the INPUT associated with the module, using the appropriate radio buttons. Set the level for the overload lighting by moving to the value, pressing the ENTER key, turning the dial to set the value and pressing ENTER to confirm the value. Otherwise, if the AUTOMATION option is selected, these indicators show the current automation status of the channels, as explained in the separate Automation Manual. FADER SENSITIVITY This parameter allows you to specify the sensitivity of the faders, as used in the automation process. The DM-3200 touch sensing capabilities are dependent on the ambient humidity and environment. Depending on these factors, it may sometimes happen that faders which have been touched are not recognized as having been touched, or the faders are recognized as having been touched when they have not actually been touched. The value of the sensitivity is set by default to 4.0k, but you may wish to set it to any of the following values: 1.0k, 1.5k, 2.0k, 2.5k, 3.0k, 3.5k, 4.0k (Hz). High values mean higher touch sensitivity. TASCAM DM-3200 Owner's Manual 33
