4 – Routing & assignment : Channel-to-buss assignmentTASCAM DM-3200 User’s Manual 53Surround assignments In surround mode withthe pan switch on, the meaning is different—channelmodules are assigned to one or both of the surroundpanners for fine adjustment.In addition to using the cursor and ENTER keys forassigning the channels modules to the surround bus-ses, the ASSIGN keys can also be used.With the pan switch on, use any of the ASSIGN keys1 through 8 to turn surround 1 on and off (all indica-tors light together) and ASSIGN keys 9 through 16 toturn surround 2 on and off.See “Surround operations” on page 75 for furtherdetails of this and other surround operations, includ-ing the individual assignment of channels to surroundmatrix output channels with the pan switch off.Non-channel assignments Assignments fromthe busses may be made to the stereo buss as well asto the aux 1–2 send busses (which can therefore beused as studio monitors).Assignments from the aux sends can be made to thestereo buss only.Assignments from the stereo buss are to the aux 1–2send busses (again for monitoring).Bulk assignment The POD 1 and POD 2switches correspond to “assign all” and “de-assignall” on-screen buttons.For channel assignments, use the POD 4 encoder toselect a target buss (or the stereo buss or direct out-put) for channels and then press ALL CH ON (POD 1)or ALL CH OFF (POD 2) to assign or de-assign all chan-nels to or from the selected target.Buss assignments may be made to the stereo bussand/or the aux 1–2 buss pair. The labels of the on-screen buttons change here to ALL BUSS ON (POD 1)and ALL BUSS OFF (POD 2).For aux sends and the stereo buss, the button labelsare ALL ON (POD 1) and ALL OFF (POD 2).Buss panning The balance between odd- andeven-numbered busses is set in the MODULE AUX/BUSSscreens (see “Aux and buss setup” on page 68). Seealso “BUSS PAN Follows ST PAN” on page 34 for-details of how buss and stereo panning are linked.Figure 4.8: Surround channel assignment screen
