Main Mixer and three Fixed switches,

Fader
Special Faders react slightly differently from the Channel Faders,
enabling the movement of different Channel Values,
click Fader and drag up/down to move all Locked Channels. Special Faders
may reach their maximum/minimum Value,
whilst the Locked Faders have not reached theirs. To enable more Fader
movement simply release click,
and click again any were within the Special Faders path but not on
the Fader itself.
This will define the Special Faders new position without moving any
of the Locked Channels,
with the exception of Non Latching Faders that will snap back to a
default position (see Mixer Designer).
Moving the Special Fader as before will give more movement to Latching
Faders, but accelerates Non Latching.
