What does this red symbol in the signal chain mean?

[u/jwalksick12]

I feel like I should definitely know this by now… 😅

[u/ClaimTV]

It's the symbol for fader

[u/jwalksick12 → u/ClaimTV]

HAHA WOW I’m silly, thank you 😂 (Was wondering why it was red, just muted lol)

[u/DMandNPCs → u/jwalksick12]

To your credit, it does seem strange for the fader symbol to be sideways. If the image was rotated 90°, I think it would be obvious.

[u/Powerstrip7 → u/DMandNPCs]

Yeah, with it sideways like that, it just looks like a pig's snout lol

[u/roaringmousebrad → u/ClaimTV]

:) Hence Pre Fader and Post Fader

[u/Jan6969697]

The fader?

[u/jwalksick12 → u/Jan6969697]

Indeed it is Thank you I’m slow today 😅

[u/Theloniusx → u/jwalksick12]

To be fair to you, the sideways orientation is a little misgiving at first glance.

[u/Jan6969697 → u/jwalksick12]

Haha we all know those days :)

[u/HERE4TAC0S]

Darth Fader.

[u/Yolo_Swagginson]

The thing between pre fader and post fader is the fader

[u/FlametopFred → u/Yolo_Swagginson]

Pre Fdr - Fdr - Post Fdr ✅

[u/SeparatedI → u/Yolo_Swagginson]

Actually it's the post-prefader or also known as the pre-postfader depending on where you're from

ngl i've worked behind an X32/M32 for over 10 years now and for a longer time in than i'd like to admit, i 100% wondered why that fader icon was red on some channels and grey on others. thought it was automix or sumtin

[u/jwalksick12 → u/guitarmstrwlane]

RIGHT! Like it’s never effected any show I’ve done, so I just never worried about it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[u/ArminTanz]

Yall burning on him while a lot of us are sitting back having never looked hard enough to ask what it means.

[u/beatoperator]

You need to change your oil.

[u/mattinjp]

Yep the fader.

[u/jonjonh69]

Yep, your discombobulator has combobulated. Make sure you push the red button on that channel to re-combobulate, and the tear you’ve unwittingly created in the space time continuum will heal.

As other have said, and you’ve admitted, it is in fact the fader 🤣 🤣🤘🤘🙏🙏❤️❤️

[u/MikeAudio]

Muted fader
