Scribble Strip<br />
The Pan control comes before the Level Control<br />
and Aux Sends in the signal flow. On stereo strips<br />
we use an unconventional pan section with two<br />
pan pots – one for the left part of the signal and<br />
one for the right part of the signal. This feature<br />
allows you to independently position both sides<br />
of the stereo signal. A conventional stereo balance<br />
control only allows you to turn down one side or<br />
the other.<br />
The Mute button does just what you would<br />
expect—press the button and the sound from that<br />
channel is cut off. Pressing the Solo button while<br />
the Mute button is pressed allows you to hear the<br />
channel until solo is turned off.<br />
The Solo button allows you to listen to only that<br />
channel while muting the rest of the inputs. If<br />
multiple solo buttons are pressed, you will hear all<br />
soloed channels and the non-soloed channels will<br />
all be muted.<br />
The mute status is remembered if a muted channel<br />
is soloed. When the channel solo is turned off, the<br />
channel reverts to being muted.<br />
The Level Control for the strip is an attenuation<br />
control that can also provide up to +12dB of gain.<br />
0db is the unity gain setting. You can also type<br />
numeric values into the displays to set the level.<br />
At the very bottom is the Scribble Strip text area,<br />
into which you can type any short piece of text,<br />
thus naming the strip, i.e. “vocals”, “bass”,<br />
“drums” and so on.<br />
