6.14 Master Module: Group-to-Matrix Assigned Pre or Post Group Master Fader A slide switch in each master module permits the module's group send to the mix matrix to be altered. As shipped, the console is preset so that when the GROUPTO-MTRX switch is on, the matrix is fed signal after the Group Master Fader (but before the GROUP ON/off switch). The internal switch in each of these modules can be repositioned so that the matrix is fed before the Group Master Fader. In the factory preset configuration, the matrix follows the group mix. If one group, for example, is used for vocals, another for keyboards, etc., then all vocals going to all matrix outputs can be adjusted with one Group Master Fader... all Keyboards going to all matrix outputs can be adjusted with another Group Master Fader, etc. Suppose, however, that you plan to feed a stereo house mix from the eight subgroups, yet you need as many as eight additional mono or five stereo mixes. The mix matrix alone allows for only one stereo and six mono mixes, or a total of four stereo mixes. A greater number of mixes can be obtained by selecting the alternate (pre-Group Master Fader) switch positions. In that case, you can assign the Group Outputs to the stereo bus via the GROUP-TO-ST switch [40] and the adjacent PAN pot [41]; the Group Master Faders will serve as submasters for this stereo mix, and the Stereo Master Fader will control the mixed output. At the same time, the matrix controls on each master module will provide an 8:1 mix of the same groups; that matrix channel's #1 - #8 mix controls will serve as submasters, and the MTRX MASTER [31] will control the mixed output. (Do not turn up the L and R controls in the matrix, since these would be redundant here). In this way, you can obtain one stereo and eight mono mixes, five stereo mixes, or some combination thereof all with independent submaster and master controls. Figure 6-14.
