3.6 Groups
The Model D-3 uses three groups to implement the functions of three independent au-
tomatic mixers. Inputs may be assigned to any of three processing groups, each with its
own
depth
,
NOM gain limit
, and
music system threshold input
controls. Grouping
continues through linked units, except that analog mixers linked with a Model D-2 are
always assigned to
group a
. The only functions that do not split into groups are the
master
override
,
preset
, and
mute
buttons, which always work on the whole system.
Groups may be used to split controllers between simultaneous events in different rooms.
Assign the mics for each room to their own group.
If mics are assigned to different console busses (like LCR), assign each mic on the D-3 to
a group corresponding to its console bus. Otherwise the ambience will shift around in
the audio image when different people talk.
