Chapter 5: Assigning Input Signals and Tracks
Chapter 5: Assigning Input Signals and Tracks
(Quick Patch mode and V. Track mode)
This chapter describes functions and operations in Quick Patch mode for routing signals inside the DPS16 and in
V. Track mode for assigning virtual tracks to physical tracks 1–16.
Main Quick Patch mode screen
When the DPS16 is set to default, signals input (for example) at INPUT jacks 1 and 2 are routed to tracks 1 and 2.
In Quick Patch mode, you can change signal routings. For example, you can send INPUT 1 and 2 signals to tracks
3 and 4, or directly to the mixers master section. Also, when the DPS16 is set to default, the MASTER OUT jacks
on the rear panel output the MASTER bus signals. You can, instead, output the AUX bus signals or any track
signals from the MASTER OUT jacks. In this way, Quick Patch mode is used to change the internal signal
routing.
Pressing the [PATCH] key accesses the following Quick Patch screen (main Quick Patch mode screen).
