U
VCA GROUP
select switches
These switches select the VCA master fader(s) which
will control the signal output level of this channel.
When you select a VCA group 1–8, the indicator
located at the left of each switch will light, and the
corresponding VCA master fader (VCA master section
3
) will control the channel. It is possible to select two
or more VCA groups for one input channel, or to con-
trol two or more input channels by the same VCA
group.
Channels for which a VCA group is selected
The signal output level of the channel can be con-
trolled both by the corresponding VCA master
fader(s) and by the channel fader (
V
). The settings of
all corresponding VCA master faders are summed
with the setting of the channel fader to specify the sig-
nal output level of that channel.
Channels for which a VCA group is not selected
The signal output level of the channel can be con-
trolled only by the channel fader (
V
).
V
Channel fader
This fader adjusts the signal output level of the input
channel. This fader will affect the level of the signal
that is sent to the ST bus and to the MIX buses (if the
PRE switch is off). If one or more VCA groups are
selected by the VCA GROUP select switches (
U
), the
signal output level of that channel will also be affected
by the corresponding VCA master fader(s).
W
PFL
(pre-fader listen) switch
When this switch is on (
), the pre-fader/post-EQ
signal of this input channel will be sent to the PFL
bus, allowing it to be monitored from the MONITOR
OUT jacks or the PHONES jack.
Note:
For details on VCA functions, refer to
