Banking Channels on the S6L Control Surface 97
Bank Safing Channels
Bank Safe lets you temporarily “lock” the location of key channels (such as a lead vocal or the Mains) on an S6L control surface
channel strip. This lets you maintain immediate access to these key channels while working with channels on a different layer.
When a channel is removed from Bank Safe, the channel that would normally appear in that fader location on the currently selected
bank automatically re-appears.
You can Bank Safe channels using the Channel Safe switches, the Channel Knob Module (CKM) in Channel Control mode, or the
Channel Menu. To Bank Safe channels using the Channel Safe switches, you must first enable Bank Safe mode.
Bank Safing Using the Channel Safe Switches/Button
The Channel Safe switch on the S6L control surface and the Channel Safe button on the external software screen toggle Bank Safe
for that channel when Bank Safe mode is enabled. Bank Safe Mode is enabled globally for input and output channels on the Options
> Interaction page of the external screen.

sired.

B LED lights red.
• In the Input section of the MTS and CTM Channel view for the channel, B lights red.
• On the external screen the Safe button flashes green and shows the letter B (A appears if the switch is acting as an Automation
