10 - Monitoring-Meters and faders Channel faders It is sometimes useful (for instance, in automation) to have a view of the fader levels while another fader layer is selected. The FADER screen shown here (accessed with soft key 2), as well as the MASTER M/F screen immediately above, provides such a view. Meter and fader setup Use this screen to set meter characteristics, and to transfer a specific value to a fader or group of faders. Fader level Use POD 1 to change the fader level (LEVEL) between -∞ and -36dB in 128 steps. Use POD 2 to select the scope of the setting: groups of eight channels (CH1-8, CH9-16, CH17-24, CH25- In addition, the pan settings and fader levels of the channels (fader level only in the case of the aux sends and busses) can be changed. The mute settings for all modules can be viewed. Use the cursor and PODs to change the pan settings or the fader levels on screen. Channels are selected using the cursor and SEL keys in blocks of 4, corresponding to the 4 PODs. NOTE If the DM-24 is in a surround mode, these pan controls affect the position of the channel in the front L-R outputs. If the fader layer being edited is selected, the appropriate fader(s) will move as the on-screen faders are moved. Normalled faders change appearance, as in "Fader section" on page 51.

Press ENTER to copy the level. A popup message appears. Press ENTER again to confirm the copy, or a cursor key to cancel the operation. Meter ballistics (METER SETUP) The RELEASE (fall time) of the meters can be set to either Slow, Normal or Fast using POD 3. Use POD 4 to set the peak hold time (PEAK HOLD) to Off, 1, 2, 4, 8 or ∞ (seconds). In the case of an infinite hold (∞) the peak levels can be reset by selecting another value or changing the meter layer. These settings refer to both the on-screen meters and to the optional meter bridge meters. Note that when the meter layer is changed using the optional meter bridge, the STEREO master meter peak hold is not cleared. TASCAM DM-24 Reference Manual 79
