When working with an analog console it was always

necessary to check that all controls were “normalized”

before setting up a mix� This meant spending a

considerable amount of time to make sure that more than

1,000 controls (on most large consoles) were set to the

appropriate neutral positions: gain controls to minimum,

EQ controls to their at settings, etc.

On the LS9 all channel controls are concentrated in the

Selected Channel section, and all default settings are

stored in scene number 000� So all you have to do to

normalize or “reset” the entire console is to recall scene

000�

Check Your Connections

This document presumes that you have already made the necessary connections and have set up the console for basic

sound output as described in the Quick Start Guide� Check your setup one more time before trying out the functions

described in this document�

Console Preparation

Analog input connectors (monaural).

Power cable socket.

POWER switch.

Scene 000

Are the main left and right outputs appearing properly at OMNI OUT connectors 15 (7) and 16 (8)?

The Selected Channel section on an LS9 console corresponds to the channels modules on a traditional analog console,

providing access to all of the main parameters for the currently selected channel� The channel to be controlled is selected by

pressing it’s [SEL] key� Head amp gain, EQ, dynamics, pan/balance, mix and matrix bus send level, and other parameters can

be controlled via the encoders and keys on the panel�

LS9 Channel

Module Section

Note:The analog channel module shown is from the MG24/14 mixer, but since it does not have the same number of AUX and EFF controls as the LS9 it should be referred to only as an example.

The Selected Channel section is located

to the right of the LCD panel.

●Module Comparison

The channel module controls the parameters shown

in this section of the display. This corresponds to

the lower section of the analog console channel

module, shown to the left.

The Selected Channel section encoders and keys control the parameters that

appear in this section of the display. This includes head amp gain, EQ, two

different dynamics thresholds, panning/balance, and other controls

corresponding to those in the upper section of the analog console channel

module shown to the left. The HPF can be controlled via the display only.

The parameters

for the channel

selected via the

[SEL] keys appear

on the display�

Selected Channel Section

In the Sends On Fader mode you can use the console’s faders to adjust send levels to the MIX buses, or send levels from the

MIX, STEREO (L/R), and MONO buses to the MATRIX buses, and use the ON keys to turn those sends on or off�

The LS9 also allows these adjustments to be made from the main display using the cursor keys and data dial, but by

switching to the physical faders for these operations you have more hands-on, intuitive control�

●Sends from the Channels to the MIX Buses

1) With a channel layer selected ([1-16] or [17-32] on the LS9-16;

[1-32] or [33-64] on the LS9-32), make sure than only one of the

MIX/MATRIX select buttons to the left of the display is selected and

lit�

2) Use the MIX/MATRIX select buttons to select the MIX bus you

want to edit (press the button once)� The selected MIX bus button

will light�

3) Press the same button a second time and all buttons in the

MIX/MATRIX section while light, while the selected button ashes.

“SENDS ON FADER” will ash at the top of the display.

Indicates that the SENDS ON FADER mode is active.

This will flash on the actual display.

Displays the currently selected MIX bus.

The bus knobs that were showing in the main display will disappear,

indicating that control has been transferred to the console’s faders.

Same send levels.

In the SENDS ON FADER mode you can directly

control the send levels without having to open

the SEND TO MIX display.

These settings can also be made via the SEND TO

MIX display that appears when you press the

SEND button in the main display.

Signals can be sent to the MATRIX buses from the MIX, STEREO (L/R) and MONO buses in the same way

(the display will be different)�

Sends On Fader Mode

Mounting EQ or Effect Units

The Virtual Rack

The LS9 has an 8-unit “Virtual Rack�” Rack spaces 1 through 4 can be loaded with 31-band or 15-band graphic EQ units,

while rack spaces 5 through 8 can be loaded with GEQ or SPX multi-effect units� Each 31-band GEQ unit provides 31

independently adjustable bands for a single channel� While the 15-band “Flex15 GEQ” units let you control up to 15 of 31

bands for two channels�

In scene 000 4 GEQ units and 4 effect units are already selected� 8 Virtual Rack spaces are always available in the LS9,

although some of them may be blank in some cases�

GEQ units can be loaded into all 8 rack spaces, and you cal select either the single-channel 31-band GEQ type or the dual-

channel 15-band Flex15 GEQ type� Effect units can only be mounted in rack spaces 5 through 8� You can change the type of

unit mounted in any rack space by following steps 2 and 3 in the procedure described above�

(1) Press the RACK [1-4] and [5-8]

keys in the DISPLAY ACCESS section

simultaneously to open the Virtual Rack

GEQ/Effect display.

(2) Position the cursor at the RACK button

corresponding to the rack you want to access,

and press the [ENTER] key. The RACK

MOUNTER pop-up window will open.

(3) Use the BLANK, 31BandGEQ, Flex15GEQ, and EFFECT

buttons to select the type of unit you want to mount in the selected

rack space, then press the [OK] button. Press the [CANCEL]

button if you want to close the pop-up window without mounting a

GEQ or effect unit.

Selecting, Editing, and Saving Effects

If you position the cursor at a mounted effect unit in the VIRTUAL RACK GEQ/EFFECT display and press the [ENTER] key,

the EFFECT pop-up window will open�

Effects you have edited can be store in effect library numbers 058 ~ 199� Effect library numbers 001 ~ 057 are read-only�

Rev-X reverb programs can be recalled from library numbers 046 ~ 048�

Move the cursor to the parameter you want to edit and use the dial or INC/DEC keys to edit it as required�

There are two ways to change the effect type�

Click the LIB button in the upper

area of the EFFECT window

to open the EFFECT LIBRARY

pop-up window. Use the dial to

select an effect from the list that

appears in the pop-up window.

You can click the

[RECALL] button to

load the selected

effect. Edited effects

can also be saved

to the library via this

pop-up window.

Recall the effect you

want to use.

If you select an effect unit that has been mounted

in rack space 5 ~ 8 the effect edit display will open,

but if you select an EQ unit that has been mounted in

rack space 5 ~ 8 the EQ edit display will open when

you press the [ENTER] key.

Click the effect icon to open the EFFECT TYPE pop-up window. You can

then click one of the effect icons that appears to select the corresponding

effect.

If you select a unit in rack space 1 ~ 4 the EQ edit

display will open when you press the [ENTER] key.

Effect/ GEQ Channel Assignment

In scene 000 MIX channels 13 ~ 16 are assigned as effect sends, and STEREO input channels 1 ~ 4 are assigned as effect

returns� These assignments can be re-patched as required�

LS9 GEQ units can be assigned to the INPUT, MIX, MATRIX, and MASTER channel insert inputs and outputs� Effects can be

assigned to the MIX, MATRIX, and MASTER channel outputs as well as the insert inputs and outputs�

There is no need to assign effect returns to channels� In scene 000 the effect return are assigned to STEREO input channels

1 ~ 4, but these assignments can be changed� Either click the button to the right of the effect unit in the rack to open the

INPUT CH SELECT pop-up window, or open the PATCH/NAME pop-up window from the OVERVIEW display to change the

effect return assignments�

Even if you assign the effect returns to channels other than the STEREO input channels, the original STEREO input channel

assignments remain active unless you specically disengage or change the STEREO input channel assignments.

Effects can be assigned to channels via these poop-up windows.

GEQ Selection and Editing

If you position the cursor at a mounted GEQ unit in the VIRTUAL RACK GEQ/EFFECT display and press the [ENTER]

key, the GEQ pop-up window will open�

The 32 channel

faders on the

LS9-32 cover

all 31 EQ bands

at once. The

LS9-16 has three

buttons that

select the range

of bands that

will be controlled

by the channel

faders.

You can switch between different GEQ units by repeatedly

pressing the RACK [1-4] or [5-8] button. Flex15 GEQ units can

be selected and edited in the same way. When a Flex15 GEQ

unit is being edited the number of remaining available bands will

be displayed.

Although you can boost and cut the EQ bands via the display, you can also use the channel faders to directly control the

corresponding bands� Position the cursor at a button in the FADER ASSIGN area at the bottom of the display and press the

[ENTER] key� The channel faders will move to the corresponding settings as soon as a FADER ASSIGN button is engaged (the

button will be highlighted), and the faders can be used to boost/cut the corresponding EQ bands�

Links the faders to EQ control.

The [ON] keys

above the

faders set the

corresponding

band to it’s “0”

setting.

Click the FLAT button to reset all bands to

their “0” settings.

Recalling and Saving Scenes

The LS9 allows you to save mix settings, input and output port patch settings, and other settings as “scenes” with original

names for easy identication. The available scene number range is 000 ~ 300. Scene number 000 is pre-programmed with

the console’s default settings and is read-only� Scene numbers 001 ~ 300 can be written to and read from as required� Scene

data is stored in a special buffer memory that will retain the settings even is there is an unexpected shutdown due to power

trouble�

●Scene Recall

Let’s begin by recalling the console’s default settings (reset the console)� To recall scene 000 either use the INC/DEC keys or

the dial to display “000” in the SCENE eld, then press the [ENTER] key. A conrmation message will appear, and scene 000

will actually be recalled when you press the [ENTER] key a second time� By recalling scene 000 you “reset” or “normalize” the

entire console in one quick operation�

Note:By assigning scene 000 to one of the USER DEFINED KEYS (to be described later), you can recall it and therefore rest the console by pressing a single key.

Once the console has been reset you can begin to edit the various

parameters for your mix� But of course you can edit parameters from

any scene number� When any changes have been made to the currently

selected scene an (“Edit”) will appear below the scene title� This makes it

easy to tell whether the scene has been edited or not�

●Scene Save

When the required settings have been made, save the scene�

Make sure that the cursor is outside the display area and use the dial or IN/DEC keys to select the scene number you want to

store your new scene to� When you’ve selected a scene position the cursor at the [STORE] button and press the ENTER key�

The SCENE STORE pop-up window via which you can enter a scene name will appear�

Press the SCENE MEMORY

key in the DISPLAY ACCESS

section as many times as

necessary until the SCENE

LIST display appears.

Position the cursor at the [STORE] button in the SCENE STORE

pop-up window and press the [ENTER] key. A conﬁrmation

message will appear. Position the cursor at the [OK] button and

press the ENTER key to save the current settings to the selected

scene. The new scene number will appear in the scene number

ﬁeld on the display, and the edit indicator will disappear.

Scene 000 is read-only. When any parameter in

the selected scene has been edited a yellow will

appear.
