Hi Johanna,
Do you have the jaws scripts that are available for the delta control panel?
If you do, that will help you at least some.
The reason why you get signals in the wrong stereo position, is because for
each fader, you also have a balance slider. So, if you start tabbing thru
the items in the monitor mixer page of the delta control panel, then you
will first meet two sliders for master volume. It is no problem to turn
those 100% up, if your gear that amplifies the signal can handle it. But
then, there are faders that will differ, depending on what model sound card
you have, i.e. which of the delta's you actually bought.
As a rule of thumb, keep this in mind:
1. The first thing you will find for a given input into the mixer, is its
volume slider. You can move it up and down, and jaws will report its state
as you move it.
2. Next, you will find a horizontal slider, which is the panning for that
input. Panning refers to the position in the stereo image, where you want
that input to sound. It can either be hard left, hard right, in the middle,
or somewhere in between all these. Unlike the volume fader, you can only
move the pan fader horizontally, not vertically. Just like the volume fader,
the pan slider too is announced in percentages as you change its position
with your keyboard arrows.
Please realise that you have a number of mono inputs. If you use two mono
inputs together, they form one stereo pair. One input is used for the left
audio channel, the second input in the pair is used for the audio in your
right stereo channel, or vice versa if you prefer. But if you want to use,
say, inputs 1 and 2 as a stereo pair, you must pan the first input hard
left, 0%, and the second input panned hard right, 100%.
3. Next, you will find a few check boxes that belong to the fader. The check
boxes that belong to a fader, allways appear after the fader itself, if you
tab around in the dialog box. For each input, no matter if it is a physical
input or the wave device, you will see a solo check box. If it is off, then
it's all right. But if you turn it on, then only that input will sound. All
others won't. How loud that particular fader then sounds, obviously still
depends on the position of its volume fader. In general, keep those solo
buttons off, unchecked.
You will also find a mute check box, which basically does the opposite of
soloing it. If you turn on the mute button, the sound for that input will be
silenced, while all others won't. Again, keep those off.
Lastly, you will find a checkbox that says something like: stereo link. Now,
if you turn that on, then moving the left volume slider of a stereo pair,
will also move the right slider for the second input. If you want to cut
down on the volume for a given input and you slide down its volume using the
left input volume slider, the right one will also move down.
That's it. Hope this helps. It was long ago since I downloaded the jaws
scripts for the delta panel, and I believe it's been quite a while since
they've been updated. In fact, I do think I have the latest version here. If
you want them, I can send them to you off list.
Paul.

Hi, Paul,
Thanks for your explanation. That was very helpful and clear. The problem
was just that: I had all outputs routed to wave device, not to monitor
mixer. When I set outputs 1/2 to monitor mixer and opened all volume
controls there, then the system worked just like I want.
I have worked with physical mixers before. So, it was quite easy to
realize how does it work - after You explained it! Thanks!
Btw... How do you access all controls in the mixer? How do you know where
you are? My jaws says only "Mixer inputs" everywhere. I have noticed
up/down sliders are volume controls and left/right sliders are pan
controls. First, I turned all controls to 100% and then wondered why I get
signal only far right.
Do You know something about the Bass management page?
Johanna
