1 - Introduction : The features of the DM-4800 Control section This section contains the screen, the dedicated function keys, and the PODs, as well as the cursor keys and the data wheel. Monitoring section This section contains the controls for the control room and studio monitoring and cueing controls, as well as the talkback microphone and slate controls. The main stereo meters are also in this section. Module & fader layer control section The faders and module control keys are in this section, together with the keys used to select the different layers. See "Fader layers" on page 19 for details of how the fader layers are used on the DM-4800. Encoder section The use of the encoders is described in "Encoders" on page 22. Modifier section (SHIFT & CTRL keys) These are keys which when pressed and held, affect the behavior of other keys. Library section and CF card slot These keys perform recall, etc. of library entries. The CF card slot is used with a CF card to store projects and the data associated with these project. Machine control section These controls are used to control a device (external hardware recorder, or DAW) connected to the DM4800 using MIDI, USB or the 9-pin serial control protocol. Analog input section These are the built-in mic/line inputs and inserts. See the details later in this section ("Mic/line connections" on page 49) for details of how to connect and use them. The operation of this section is described in more detail in "Basic operational concepts" on page 17, which you should read in order to gain an understanding of how the PODs, etc. are used. See "Monitoring" on page 66 for details of this section's operation. The SEL keys are used to select the modules to be edited. This can also be done with the touch-sensitive faders. See this section for a complete description of how the indicators surrounding the encoders are lit when the encoders perform different functions.
