Visual Indication When Not On Main Mix

[BobParticipant]

Dang … I did it again … was on a Mix layer and forgot … tried to mix Main L&R ! Arrr.

The little blue LED in the center of the FX and MIX buttons can readily be overlooked.

A more expressive visualization would be very helpful when you’re not on the main mix layer.

How about having the FX and Mix LEDs blink when in either of those modes ?

This was mentioned in a general discussion several months ago, so I thought I’d formally place it in the suggestions area.

Thanks

Agreed. It’s so easy to do this!

With the ability to put anything anywhere, what constitutes the main layer?

If you are referring to something like “sends on faders”, then yes, a more in your face indication might help. On the LS9 you have a whole bank of buttons blinking to remind you.

Please don’t make the Mix bus button light blink for that. Write it in big letters on the display somewhere. I want blinking on the mix buttons to signal something different, hopefully 🙂

I would like ‘inverted’ channel-strips when not on L/R-mix. That means green font on black background instead of black font on green. But I’m not sure if this would be possible by hardware.

Good idea. Even on GLD I happened to mix to the last used mix master instead of the wanted LR Master. Please give us a more in your face indication as Rob proposed.

[Jens-DroesslerParticipant]

Well, why not showing the mix the system is on in the top right edge of the display, like on dLive? Or maybe a reminder popping up after like 15s on anything but the main mix without changing fader settings? (of course optional only)
