7 – Module operations—Setup screen58 TASCAM DM-24 Reference Manual32 have slightly different screens, reflecting the dif-ferent configuration:Channels 17 through 32 have no gate available.The aux 1-2 sends are more limited in the choice oftheir source points (no return available)Channels 25 through 32 have no channel digitaldelay available.The controls available on these screens (through thePODs or through the cursor keys and data dial) are:Channel source (CH SOURCE) This is a 2-wayswitch. Turning POD 1 (top row) counterclockwiseselects the input (INPUT) source, and turning it clock-wise selects the return (RETURN) source (channels 1through 24 only). Both of the actual sources (inputand return) are defined in the I/O screen, not here.The display at the top left of the screen is updated, asis the block diagram.Gate switch (GATE SW) This (POD 2) turns thegate (if available) on (clockwise) or off (counter-clockwise). Channels 1 through 16 only.Aux 1 and 2 source (AUX 1-2 SOURCE)This (POD 4) selects the source for the Aux 1 and 2sends to be either pre-fader (PRE), post-fader (POST)or the return associated with the module (RETURN).This selection is available in this screen becausethese aux sends may be used effectively as studiomonitor sends, and flexibility is therefore a usefulfeature here.For channels 17 through 32, only the pre and postoptions are available here.NOTENote that even if aux sends1 and 2 are unlinked, thesettings of both are modified together using this con-trol.Compression insert (COMP INSERT) Thisselects the position for the compressor insert (ifassigned) to be either pre-EQ (PRE EQ, counterclock-wise) or post-EQ (POST EQ, clockwise).Compressor switch (COMP SW) This switch(POD 2) turns the compressor (if assigned) either off(OFF, counterclockwise) or on (ON, clockwise).Assignable insert position (ASSIGNINSERT) This (POD 3) allows the positioning ofthe assignable insert in the module chain. There aretwo positions, pre-fader (PRE FADER) and post-fader(POST FADER).Assignable insert switch (ASSIGN INSSW) This switch (POD 4) allows the switching ofthe assignable insert loop (at the position determinedby the previous switch) as either on (ON, clockwise)or off (OFF, counterclockwise). These controls aredisabled if no assignable loop has been assigned tothe channel.Phase switch (Φ) This (POD 1) reverses thephase of the input when turned clockwise (REVERSE),otherwise, the phase of the signal is normal(NORMAL).For stereo linked channels, PODs 1 and 2 are usedfor controlling the phase of the left (odd) and right(even) channels respectively.Digital delay time (DELAY) The channel canbe delayed by up to 16,383 samples (the maximum inhigh sampling frequency is 32,767 samples). This isequivalent to 341.2 milliseconds at 48k or 96k sam-pling frequencies, or 371.5 milliseconds at 44.1k or88.2k sampling frequencies.
