Quick And Intuitive Operation
Like the OnAir 3000, the operation
of the desk is based on Studer’s well
proven and worldwide accepted
“Touch’n’Action” user interface
concept. Within minutes, your talent is
able to operate the console. If your staff
is already experienced with the OnAir
3000, getting familiar with the OnAir
2500 is simple. This is ensured by the
clear layout of the user interface.
Within each single fader strip, an
OLED (Organic LED) ensures clearest
readability of the indicated information.
The display shows the name of the
assigned channel as well as input level
and gain reduction meters. The level
meter can be alternatively switched to
pre or postfader signal indication or
to the corresponding N-X send level.
The lower right area of the display
is preserved for information about
the function assigned to the rotary
encoder below the display. During
operation, users can choose if the
rotary accesses the channels Gain
setting or the Aux 1 parameters or
any other of the assignable functions.
For immediate visual feedback, the
selected function is always indicated
by an individual graphic icon, which is
supported by text based parameter
indication, whenever the encoder knob
is touched. Two small pushbuttons
allow direct access to switching
parameters, like On/Off or Pre/Post.
Each faderstrip includes an overload
indication LED which flashes
whenever the channel signal overloads
the input stage. Two large Pushbuttons
with replaceable labels on top of each
fader are preconfigured as ‘REC’ and
‘TB’. REC routes the channels signal
to the Record Bus, TB allows talkback
into the channel related return line
(available with N-X channel sources).
Below these buttons, a blue LED
indicates an open channel
(faderstart is active). The LED is
followed by two small pushbuttons,
which can be customised. Users can
configure the buttons, for example
with a ‘Tally’ function.
On the right hand side of each fader,
a set of eight small pushbuttons with
fixed labels allows direct access to
fader related function pages shown
in the main screen. By pressing the
button at any time, the operator gets
immediate access to the channel Input
page, the DeEsser, EQ, Dynamics
pages, the Insert page or the Aux, N-
X, Bus Assign pages.
A simple touch on the respective
symbol of a channel function, e.g.
equalizer, dynamics, AUX send,
immediately opens the corresponding
page on the main screen, allowing for
quick and easy adjustment. This can
be done either by the four rotary
encoders below the main screen
or directly by touching a selection
list within the main screen display.
