This function can be used to change the "Multirow Metering" options, in the System Settings display, from a central user button.

Each button has an on and off state, allowing you to toggle between two different states. For example, to turn the second metering row on/off or change its behaviour.

The instructions below describe how to programme a user button to change the second metering row. The third metering row can be configured in a similar manner.

1.    Open the Custom Functions display, on the Central GUI, using one of the following methods.
  • Press the SYSTEM button on the SCREEN CONTROL panel.
  • Select System → Custom Functions from the GUI page menu.
  • Press CTRL + 5 on the console keyboard.

2.    Select Add and choose Central User Button, Multi Row Metering from the list of functions.

3.    Select Next and define the function's Name and user button Type/Index/Scribble in the usual manner.

4.    Set the Modify 2nd Row field to Yes. Then define the button's "On" and "Off" states.

For example:

  • If the 2nd Row Bank/Layer (Off) states are set to Desk + Back, then when the user button is off, the 2nd row meters channels assigned to the flip layer of the current bank.
  • If the 2nd Row Bank/Layer (On) states are set to Bank 4 + First, then when the user button is on, the 2nd row switches to meter channels assigned to the Bank 4, Layer 1 fader strips.

5.    Select OK to create the custom function and test the functionality.
