TASCAM DM-3200 Owner’s Manual
Utilities
There are three
UTILITY
screens, accessed with the
UTILITY
key.
The first of these (
PARAM COPY
) provides a method of
copying values between channel parameters.
The second (
EXT. SW
) determines the function of the
external footswitch.
The last (
SYSTEM
) allows CF card management and
date setting. These have already been described in
“Formatting a new card” on page 24 and “Setting the
date and time” on page 27 and are not described
again here.
There is also a system update facility. See the
TMCompanion software and its documentation for
full details of how to update the DM-3200.
UTILITY copying
This screen allows the aux send levels and pan set-
tings for a group of channels to be set up to mirror
the settings made on the channel faders, and the other
way around. This may be useful when setting up a
studio monitor mix, for example, and the levels and
pans of the aux sends used for the monitor mix
should initially be set to the same as the channels.
1
Press the
UTILITY
key.
2
Check either of the two checkboxes (
PAN/BAL
and/or
LEVEL
) to select the settings to be copied.
3
In either of the two boxes, select either the
AUX
-> CH
or the other radio button (
CH -> AUX
for
level, but variable for pan/balance).
Naturally, it is not possible to select both in the
same box, though it is possible to select
CH ->
AUX
in one box and
AUX -> CH
in the other.
4
Select the source and the destination parame-
ters as explained here.
For pan/balance copying, the aux sends and
busses are available as linked pairs or an
ALL
selection is also available. Individual sends
and busses are not available.
The
STEREO
buss is available as a destination.
The aux sends are selectable individually or as
linked pairs as sources or destinations for level
copying.
Channels are divided into blocks of eight:
1-8
,
9-16
,
17-24
,
25-32
33-40
and
41-48
and
ALL
. Indi-
vidual channels cannot be selected. This
applies to both pan/balance and level copying.
5
Move the cursor to the on-screen
COPY
button
and press
ENTER
. A confirmation popup mes-
sage appears.
6
Press
ENTER
again to confirm the copy, or a
cursor key to cancel.
If neither of the checkboxes is checked when you
press the
COPY
button, an error message is displayed.
