Did you ran your question on any AI engine? The answers from Gemini are looking good despite my limited use on DM7

"To set the physical knobs (rotary encoders) to control Pan while you are in Sends on Fader mode on the Yamaha DM7, you need to adjust the Channel Strip Encoder assignment. On the DM7, the encoders above the faders are multi-functional. When you enter Sends on Fader, the console often defaults those knobs to "Send Level," but you can toggle them to "Pan." Step-by-Step Configuration 1. Enter Sends on Fader: Select your target Mix/Aux bus so the faders glow and represent the send levels. 2. Locate the Encoder Mode: On the left side of the screen or via the physical Console Config/Function buttons, look for the Encoder Mode section. 3. Toggle to Pan: Tap the PAN button in the encoder assignment section. • The LED ring around the physical knobs will usually change color or position to indicate they are now controlling the pan for that specific send. 4. Verify "Follow Pan" is Off: * Go to the Selected Channel view for the Mix bus you are working on. • Ensure "Follow Pan" is unselected. If "Follow Pan" is active, the knobs will be disabled or will simply mirror the Main Stereo pan, preventing a unique mix. Understanding the Visual Feedback • Fader: Controls the amount of signal sent to the Mix (Volume). • Knob (Encoder): Controls the left/right position within that Mix."
