SWITCH utility
When a footswitch is connected to the rear of the
unit, it can be set up using this screen in the follow-
ing way:
Talkback
The footswitch can be set to act as a
hands-free talkback switch, with the destination
being set from the following options: TO
STUDIO & TO
SLATE
,
TO STUDIO
, and
TO SLATE
. In these cases, the
footswitch acts in “smart mode” (see “Smart keys”
on page 16).
Machine Control
Especially in cases where the
artist is also the recording engineer, the following
hands-free transport operations can be very useful:
Punch In/Out
,
Direct Locate [n]
,
Play/Stop
. See “Remote
operation” on page 93 for full details of how these
functions operate. In these cases, the footswitch
operates in the same way as the front panel keys.
Other functions
The following functions dupli-
cate commonly-used keys.
SHIFT
duplicates the use of
the
SHIFT
key (to the left of the unit).
Automation KEEP
performs a keep operation (see the separate
Automa-
tion Manual
for details).
Increment Direct Library Recall
and
Decrement Direct Library Recall
allow direct stepping
up or down through the current bank of the current
library (see also “Recalling library entries” on
page 31).
Tap Tempo for Delay Effect
allows the foot-
switch to be used for tapping in the tempo used for a
synchronized delay effect (useful if both hands are
busy playing an instrument!).
Mute On/Off for Mute
Group [n]
provides easy hands-free mute grouping for
a specified group, and the
EQ On/Off for Current CH
allows easy A/B comparisons of EQ settings versus
flat response.
Polarity
This is not a function assignment, but
allows the switch’s polarity to be reversed (the DM-
3200 expects a push-to-make momentary switch, but
by flipping the polarity to
INVERT
, a push-to-break
switch can be used instead).
