that button. To do so, press ‘Destination Mode’ to begin selection of a destination. Then,

5 Press the ‘Gang Take’ button (among the function buttons).
The take buttons under the LCD buttons do not perform gang takes.
Gang Takes
Gang takes occur in MD mode only. However, the ‘Gang Take’ button will perform ordinary takes
when your panel is in X-Y mode.
In MD mode, the ‘Gang Take’ button performs takes to multiple MD destinations (which have pre-
sets) simultaneously. The gang take is the only way to perform simultaneous takes.
In X-Y mode, the gang take button acts like an ordinary take button. It just executes the take that
any of the dedicated take buttons in the LCD button array would execute.
