Crest Audio CV 20 - Manual (Page 8)

T
he Master Module block contains the main audio
buses and their associated controls, VCA masters
and Mute group/ scene masters and functions including
monitoring and talk back.
8 VCA masters are standard on all CV ™ models.
Assigning Channels to a VCA is via “soft assignments”.
With a channel assigned to a VCA, not only can the
channel’s post fader level be controlled by the VCA
master but the channel can also be muted and soloed
from the master.
8 sub-groups are also provided on CV models for
conventional grouping each with their own 12 segment
bar graph metering. From the sub group signals can be
sent to the L/R and Mono buses. With the LCR switch
engaged panning between the Left, Right and Mono
buses can be applied for LCR applications.
Separate Left, Right and mono bus controls are also
provided on all CV units with 12 segment bar graph
metering for each bus.
Each subgroup and main bus can also be sent to 4 Matrix
outputs 1 & 2 Matrix buses being fixed mono and 3 and
4 being switch able from dual mono to stereo sends.
Matrix level control is provided via rotary controls with
Matrices 3 & 4 having the expanded ability to route to
Aux 11 & 12 to add post processed sub-grouped audio
to the Aux mix. The Matrix buses can also source
signals from the stereo inputs as well. This makes Matrix
expandable from 11 x 4 to 19 x 4.
12 Aux masters are also provided with separate solo and
mute switches for each master. Mutes of Aux masters
can be accessed locally or via the scene controls (see
scene controller). Each Aux master also has its own 12-
segment bar graph meter for monitoring purposes.
