Abstract:
As viewed from the front of an operation panel, adjustment sections for individual input channels are positioned on the operation panel close to a human operator, and a display, a control section for setting an equalizer process, compressor process etc. for one selected channel and a signal delivery control section for setting signal delivery to mixing buses for the selected channel are positioned, in a horizontal row remotely from the human operator. Operators in the delivery control section are varied in function in accordance with a selected operation mode. For example, in a mix send mode, a plurality of rotary operators are set to function as send level adjustment operators for the respective input channels so as to adjust send levels to a given mixing bus, while, in a mix master mode, the rotary operators are set to function as output gain adjustment operators for the respective mixing buses.

Claim (Index 14):
A mixing system control method for controlling a mixing system that comprises: a plurality of input channels each configured to perform signal processing on an input signal; a plurality of mixing buses each configured to mix output signals of individual ones of the input channels a plurality of manual-operators each provided in corresponding relation to individual ones of the mixing buses: a selection key operable by the user to select one of the input channels; and a monitoring key operable by the user to select, as a monitoring signal, one of the output signals of the input channels, the mixing system control method comprising:\n determining whether one of the input channels is selected by an operation of the selection key; and in response to determining that one of the input channel is selected by the operation of the selection key.\n controlling respective send levels from the one input channel selected via the selection key to individual ones of the mixing buses on the basis of respective operations of the manual-operators wires landing to the mixing buses and \n controlling an operation state of the monitoring key to lie interlocked to the operation of the selection key so that an output signal of the one input channel selected via the select ion key is selected as the monitoring signal.
