Effectively, because there can be up to 24 mono Aux sends configured on the console, this means that
there are up to 24 sets of VCA groups (each with up to 8 Group Masters), in addition to the set of main
channel fader VCA groups. This means that there are up to 32 virtual sets of 8 VCA master faders in total.
VCA control of Auxes is only available by activating the Follow Output Solo [FLW] key next to the master
faders, note that the pair of [FLW] keys for the VST Encoder Rows will not access this function.
Due to the Follow Output Solo functionality, it is possible to control only one Aux mix via VCAs at any one
time.
Procedure
Select the Aux required by selecting the required master fader bank [A]-[C].
Activate the [FLW] key next to the master faders.
Press the [SOLO/SEL] key, under the master fader, for the required Aux. Alternatively, the Aux can be
soloed using the solo switches in the Master Vistonics™ screen.
Press [VCA]. The FaderGlow™ for the master faders will change to blue. The faders will move to show the
offsets which are being applied to the Aux feeds from those channels which are assigned to the VCAs now
being displayed in the master section. Note that at this point the VCA Master [SOLO/SEL] keys have no
function. The VCA [ON] switch controls the Aux send On/Off on the member channels (the channel’s [ON]
switch is illuminated red if the Aux send is turned Off by a VCA Master [ON] switch.)
To select another Aux for adjustment, press the required bank key [A]-[C], solo the required aux (or solo
directly on the VST screen), and press [VCA] or [E]. To exit, press [SOLO CLEAR] and de-select [FLW].
In the example in Figure 9-3, input channel 1 has been assigned to VCA 1, and channels 2,3 & 4 have
been assigned to VCA 4. In order to use the VCAs to control the Aux 5 sends from the input channels
proceed as follows: select bank A, activate [FLW], solo Aux MASTER 5 using its [SOLO/SEL] key, press
[VCA]. VCA 4’s fader will now control the Aux 5 feeds from input channels 2, 3 & 4; and VCA 1’s fader will
now control the Aux 5 feed from input channel 1.
