Soft limits ( ) are adjustable, letting you set the ceiling and floor for the group.
Grouped faders move together at relative levels to the top or bottom of their travel.
If one fader reaches the limit of its travel first, it retains that position while the other
faders continue to travel. When the grouped faders travel in the reverse direction,
the fader that was at its limit reverts to its position relative to the other faders. No
gain block’s level fader can be set beyond the group fader’s upper or lower limits,
either the hard limits or the soft limits. Any gain fader in the group can be set to a
level below the group fader.
An icon in the gain control indicates that a gain control is assigned to a group; in
figure 5-9, indicates group 2. in the output 3 control indicates that that gain
control is assigned to more than one group.
N If a block is muted, that block remains muted when the group mute is released.

Extron recommends that if you include a control in multiple groups, that you do so
with care; overlapping group membership can quickly become unmanageable.
