Basics of Signal Selection

The M/E banks, PGM/PST bank, and auxiliary bus control
block each have 32 cross-point buttons and three reentry
buttons (four in the case of the auxiliary bus control block).
These buttons are identified by numbers common to all of
the banks and the control block, and a signal is assigned to
each number.
The basis of signal selection is to select, in a cross-point
button row, the cross-point button to which is assigned the
desired signal.
Reentry buttons
To use the output of one M/E bank as the input signal to
another bank, use the reentry buttons [M/E 1], [M/E 2],

Bus Selection

Each row of 32 cross-point buttons is shared by multiple
buses.
To assign a bus to the cross-point buttons in the auxiliary
bus control block, press one of the AUX delegation buttons
to select the bus.

and [M/E 3] (on the auxiliary bus control block, [M/E 1],
[M/E 2], [M/E 3], and [PGM]) in the cross-point control
block of the destination bank.
For example, to feed the output from the M/E-1 bank as the
background B input to M/E-2, in the M/E-2 cross-point
control block, press the [M/E 1] button in the background
B row.
Notes
• To select [M/E 4] or [M/E 5], it is necessary to assign M/
E 4 or M/E 5 to a button (see page 396).
• For a 5M/E or 6M/E system, a maximum of four reentry
stages are possible. For other restrictions on reentry, see
page 240.
Notes
• When using the CCP-6224/6324, buses may be assigned
with the cross-point button rows for keys 1 and 2 as the
auxiliary bus control block.
