‘Add New Group Bus…’
will immediately create a new Group Bus in the ‘Assigned’ list. Note that
this new Group Bus also appears immediately in the Group Buses section of the “Configure Mixer”
window.
Please note
: Although ‘Add New Group Bus…’ immediately creates and assigns a new Group Bus,
all other assignment functions must be applied by hitting the ‘Apply’ button, ‘
Enter
’ or ‘
Return
’ keys.
The ‘Cancel’ button, ‘
Esc
’ key or ‘
cmd .
’ key command will cancel new assignments, but will not undo
newly created Group Buses.
• The
Single Arrow
buttons in the ‘Bus Assign’ window are for moving buses between the ‘Available’
and ‘Assigned’ lists in the direction the arrow points. Make a selection in the ‘Available’ list and
click the “
>
” button to move your selection to ‘Assigned’. Use the standard macOS “shift-click” or
“command-click” keystrokes to make multiple selections of the buses in either list and move them
all at once.
• The
Double Arrow
buttons will move all of the buses from ‘Available’ to ‘Assigned’, and vice versa.
• Double-click a Bus to move it immediately to the opposite list.
• By entering a number in the
‘Cascade to __ strips’
box and enabling ‘Cascade’, you can assign your
DCA across that number of strips, starting with your selected strip moving to the right across the
Mixer. In the example above, entering “4” in ‘Cascade to __ strips’ and checking the ‘Cascade’
enable box would assign your selected DCAs to the four strips visible in the screenshot.
• By selecting multiple strips in the Mixer, then hitting one of the highlighted strips ‘Bus Assign’ se-
lector buttons, the ‘Bus Assign’ window will replace ‘Cascade to __ strips’ with
‘Cascade to selected
strips’
‘Cascade to selected strips’ will be checked, and upon hitting ‘Apply’ your Bus Assign selection will
be applied to all of your selected Mixer strips.
• When multiple buses are routed from a Mixer strip, the Bus Assign selector button for that strip will
show as much of the first bus name as will fit in the width of the strip, plus a (
+
) sign or an ellipsis (
…
)
to indicate there's more than one. Hover the mouse cursor over the Bus Assign selector button and
a tool-tip will pop up showing all buses assigned to that strip:

Bus Output
The
Bus Output
selector button is hidden from the Mixer UI by in the default Input Strips mixer view (Mixer
Pane hamburger menu: “Set to Defaults for Input Strips”), but can be shown at any time using “Configure
Mixer Strips Controls…” or selecting “Set to Defaults for Bus Strips”.
Use the ‘Bus Output’ selector to send the post-fader signal from any bus strip to an external destination.
Note that all bus strips already include “To Host” routing at the top of each strip, plus dedicated routes
behind the Mixer UI to the Monitor Controller and Cue Controllers. "In MC" is the default setting for all
newly-created buses, unless specifically disabled within the “Configure Mixer” window, as shown below.
