you're mixing.

The factory scenes list includes a scene named Default. This scene will "zero" the mixer by returning all controls to their factory settings.

Build a Mix Using Presets

What is a Channel Preset?

A Channel Preset is a group of settings, for a single channel, that are saved and can be recalled for use at a later time. A Channel Preset includes the

channel Name, Phantom power setting, and values for the channel EQ, Compressor, and Gate.

You can start by recalling channel Presets individually. TouchMix Presets were programmed to work with common microphones in real, live sound

applications by skilled and experienced concert-sound mix-engineers. And they work. People who have used TouchMix report great results using the

presets with little or no modification.

To Select Channel Presets:

1. Make sure that the Factory / User switch is in the Factory position.

2. In the left window you'll see a list of instrument categories. Touch an instrument category name and a list of specific instruments appears in the

middle window.

3. Select a type of instrument and the right window will display a list of options for the instrument. There may be options with and without gates

and compressors as well as options for various types of microphones and pick-ups or different styles of music. Select the one that seems best for

your application.

To Learn About the Selected Preset:
