Signal Selection
Basics of Signal Selection
Each of the M/E bank, PGM/PST bank and auxiliary bus control block has 32
cross-point buttons and three reentry buttons (four in the case of the auxiliary
bus control block).
These buttons are identified by numbers common to all of the banks and block,
and a signal is assigned to each number.
The basis of signal selection is to select, in a cross-point button row, the cross-
point button to which is assigned the desired signal.
Reentry buttons
To use the output of one M/E bank as background input to another bank, use
the reentry buttons [M/E1], [M/E2], and [M/E3] (on the auxiliary bus control
block, [M/E1], [M/E2], [M/E3], and [PGM]) in the cross-point control block
of the destination bank.
For example, to feed the output from the M/E-1 bank as the background B input
to M/E-2, in the M/E-2 cross-point control block, press the [M/E1] button in
the background B row.
Bus Selection
Each row of 32 cross-point buttons is shared by multiple buses.
For example, in the M/E-1 bank, the key 1 row of buttons can be assigned either
to the key 1 bus or to the key 3 bus. The [KEY3] button switches between these
two assignments.
To assign a bus to the cross-point buttons in the auxiliary bus control block,
press one of the AUX delegation buttons to select the bus.
The following table illustrates the correspondence between buses and cross-
point button rows, and the delegation operations.
