To route a Group output to the Main busses on-screen:
1
Go to the Outputs page and select the Group you want to
route to the Main busses.
2

Bus Assign
buttons on-screen to toggle the bus as-
signment for the selected Group.
Managing Group Bus Assignments
To help manage Groups, the following sections explain how
you can spill, view, copy (duplicate) and reset Groups and
Group bus assignments.
Group Spill
You can “spill” a Group to have only its assigned channels
banked to the Input section. Group Spill lets you quickly ac-
cess only those channels assigned to a specific Group and im-
mediately focus on those channels, without needing to search
through the input fader banks.
To spill a Group:
1
Select the Group output fader bank.
2
Double-press a Group Select switch to spill its members
across the input faders.
The selected Group Select switch LED flashes, as do the cur-
rent input Bank (A-D) or FX Return (1-8) switch. Any Bank
Safed channels are hidden (though their Bank Safe status is
unaltered).
If the Group contains fewer than 16 members the channels are
right-justified within the input fader bank, in order to bring
channels as close as possible to the center of the console. Un-
used channel strips are left blank and inactive.
If the Group contains more than 16 members only the first 16
members are shown.
To cancel Group Spill, do any of the following:
• Press or double-press the Select switch on the currently
spilled Group.
• Press any Bank (A-D) switch.
• Press the FX Returns 1-8 switch.
• Press a GEQ switch.
• In the on-screen dialog, click
Exit Group Spill
.
Selecting Other Groups While Spilled
Selecting another Group while spill mode is active automati-
cally spills that Group.
Special Cases with Spill
Faders
If you are touching a fader at the same time as you invoke
Group Spill, that fader may be taken off-line. Let go of the
fader to bring it back online.
Viewing Group Bus Assignments
You can view Group bus assignments from the Input section
of the console or from an on-screen list of Group members.
Viewing Group Bus Assignments in the Input
Section
To view Group membership on the console:
1
Press the Groups switch to bank the Output faders to
Groups.
2
Press and hold the Default switch, then press the Multi As-
sign switch in the Output section.
Group numbers are shown (flashing) in each channel strip
LCD; the number indicates the Group to which each channel
is assigned.
