Is that a known Bug?
If i setup a Show for my sq6 in Mixpad 1.6.0 offline (starting from the factory preset SQ6 template), and configure some Mixes As Stereo Aux Bus with pre-fader sends, I cannot find any balance control for that stereo busses. On FX Busses and Main Bus, those controls are where they should be but not for the Mixes ???
Hmm..
DX Sends are mono, that is right.
FX Returns have Balance on the fader controls as you can see here:
Maybe i am misreading the surface, but I would identify the controls you mention as the Panning of a Mono Channel to the Aux Send? Why is that Control labelled as “Pan” then and not “Bal” (like it should on a stereo Channel)?
Hiere I have the following:
You see 4 configured stereo Mixes.
But for the Mix Masters i can not see any Balance Control:
Just for clearness:
I do not want to pan the IP1 Send to Aux1. I want to balance left and right channel of Aux1 Master (for example, because a speaker pair has do be placed unsymmetric due to escape routes on the venue).
To achieve that without a balance control on the Mix Master i would have to change the Pannings of all Sends to that Mix. That would be a lot of effort.
But as i said maybe i misinterprete the gui. But at least that is an usability inconsistency then since fx returns have Balance Controls on Faders, Inputs have Pan/Balance Controls on faders, too. Why don’t Master Faders (Main and Mixes) have Balance Controls? Ok, they cannot have Panning if mono (since there is no stereo target), but if stereo they should have balance. And even if that is “hidden” on the routing screen, it should be labelled as Balance instead of Panning.
That is the right control. Thank you.
Just a little bit hidden, would be nice to have it on “long” faders like fx returns have. Is there any intention why that is handled in different ways?
Hm there also seems a bug. Sometimes it looks like this here:
After “closing” and reopening Aux Snd it appears again:
The FX returns are routed to the Main mix, the aux mix outs are not routed to any other bus, except the matrix. Main bus has the balance control on a similar page.
