7.3.1 Quick access

The LA8 offers 3 quick access control functions: front panel locking, mute and gain; and 1quick access monitoring

function displaying input mode information, input to outputs routing and group allocation.

Front panel Lock / Unlock control

To lock the front panel (even the mute function) and prevent any unintentional operation, simply press and hold both

IN A-B keys simultaneously until the Display locked message is displayed.

To unlock press and hold both IN A-B keys simultaneously until the Display unlocked message is displayed.

Output channel Mute control

Tapping (less than 0.3 sec between clicks) one of the 4 output keys will mute or unmute the corresponding output

channel immediately. This function is accessible at all time and position in the menu tree. The key is lit in blue when

the corresponding output channel is muted and not lit when the corresponding channel is unmuted (see Figure 18).

This action automatically puts the LA8 in the Mute control page. To leave this page, click on the ESC key.

Figure 18: Output 1 unmuted, outputs 2:4 muted

Note: The mute/unmute quick access function is only accessible for outputs OUT 1:4, not for inputs IN A-IN B. In

default settings the outputs are muted and it is possible to set the gain before unmuting.

Input and output gain control

Gain control is also available in quick access mode for both inputs (IN A-B) and outputs (OUT 1:4).

From the main screen push and hold the desired input or output key: the LCD will display the name of the selected

channel and its gain value. Rotate the encoder wheel to set the gain value and simply release the key to return to the

main screen.
