GROUP SECTION
T
he Group outputs are available on XLR connectors, and a pre-fade insert point is
also provided on 3-pole 1/4” jacks. The Groups may also feed the stereo Mix (see
27, below) or the Matrix outputs (see 28, below).
26 GROUP FADERS
These 100mm long-throw fader determine the level of the Group signal. Normal
operating position is at the `0’ mark, providing 10dB of gain above that point if required.
27 GROUPS TO MIX, STEREO/MONO
Pressing the GROUPS TO MIX switch feeds the post-fade Group signals in stereo to
both sides of the stereo Mix. Groups 1 and 3 feed Mix Left, and Groups 2 & 4 feed Mix
Right.
Alternatively pairs of Groups may be used as mono subgroups feeding both sides of
the Mix, by pressing the STEREO/MONO switch.
28 MATRIX SENDS (GROUPS)
The console is provided with two independent Matrix outputs A & B. These may
receive feeds from each Group or Mix Left and Right to create additional mixes for extra
speaker outputs (e.g. side fills or delays) without affecting the main mix. The MATRIX
SENDS control the level of the Group signal sent to Matrix A & B buses. They should be
turned fully anticlockwise when not required.
If required the Matrix outputs may be used to create an additional stereo output
from the console, and in this case the Groups may be fed as stereo pairs, for instance
with Groups 1 & 3 feeding Matrix A and Groups 2 & 4 feeding Matrix B.
29 PFL
When the PFL switch is pressed, the pre-fade signal of the relevant Group is fed to
the headphones and L & R meters, where it replaces the normal Mix L/R signal. The
PFL/AFL ON LED on the master section illuminates to warn that the headphones and
the meters are now responding to the PFL/AFL selection and the associated PFL LED
lights to identify the active Group. This is a useful way of listening to any required Group
signal without interrupting the main mix, for making adjustments or tracing problems.
30 STEREO RETURNS
Four STEREO RETURNS are provided which feed either to the stereo Mix or the
local pair of Groups, as selected by the 1-2(3-4)/Mix switches. These are an ideal way of
mixing in the output of a reverb or effects unit, additional keyboards or the output of
other consoles used as sub-mixers. The knobs should turned fully anticlockwise when
not required.
