We hope you are enjoying your DA7, and that you will find that the 64 enhancements we have included in the Version 2.0 operating system will increase your enjoyment of our product. Please note that there are changes in the default settings of the DA7, some of which will affect how you operate your mixer. Please take a few moments to review the changes. This document covers ALL upgraded features to the original DA7 Operating System (Version 1.01/1.02). Therefore, we strongly recommend that you review this document before you upgrade your console so that you are familiar with all the new features. We also recommend that you print and keep this document as a supplement to the DA7 operation manual that came with your DA7. If you would like to have an electronic copy of the DA7 user guide, it can be downloaded from Once you have entered this site, go to the download section and select DA7 User Guide. Downloaded from www.M manuals search engine 6 Important Notes: Due to the fact that there are many new default settings in the Version 2.0 upgrade, we are recommending that you do a Master Reset of the console after the upgrade. Therefore you should backup any settings in the Libraries, Scene Memories, Mixes, etc. BEFORE you begin the upgrade process. Instruction for this process can be found in Section 1. After the upgrade, make certain that you look at the MIDI REMOTE and INPUT MTX windows on the LCD to see if they are properly assigned. If they are not, please reset them to your desired settings or, do a master reset to the console to return the DA7 to the new factory default settings. There are several updates to the default settings that may have an affect on the settings in your console. This will protect you from accidental erasure of any of your presets. After the upgrade, simply restore the data you have saved following the instructions in Section 1. If you are planning to use our optional automation software package (MAX), please be aware that you must be running at least O.S. Version 1.10 for it to operate properly, and we recommend that you upgrade your DA7 to Version 2.0 for optimum performance. Some of the features documented here are from intermediate upgrade versions. If you are upgrading your console from Version 1.01 or 1.02, all of the features in this document will apply to you. If you have previously upgraded your console to Version 1.10-1.20-1.21 or 1.22, you have already been using some of the features documented here in Section 2. If you are upgrading from version 1.21 or 1.22, you should follow all the instructions in Section 1, and then you may proceed directly to Section 3.
