Group outputs are controlled by 100mm travel faders which offer a
further 10dB boost above the normal ‘0’ dB operating level.
MUTE switches the group signal off when pressed regardless of fader
position. Muted channels are indicated by red LEDs.
AFL (After Fade Listen) routes the post fader signal to the console
meters and headphone monitoring to allow checks for sound quality and
mix level. The AFL signal is sourced before the MUTE switch allowing
the signal to be checked even when the group is muted.
Each group has a 4 segment LED peak reading meter providing signal
presence indication and peak warning which illuminates approximately
5dB before clipping. Meter activity is interrupted when a group is muted.

ROUPING
Sometimes it is necessary to control more than one channel
simultaneously, in the case of a drum kit or a group of backing vocalists
for example.
Route the relevant channels to groups instead of L-R, using the channel
routing switches and the pan controls.
PAN control positions the signal in the stereo image with the L-R switch
routing the group mix to the Left & Right masters. Ensure the group L-R
switch is selected to route the group signal to the L-R mix.
In this way, one group fader can control the level of several channels.
It is possible to set up mono or stereo subgroups using the channel and
group PAN controls.
