Grouping
The logic automation also allows channels to be grouped
together so that one fader can control the level of a group
of channels. The automation uses the yeAs to do this and
so it is called
VeA
grouping. The diagram below shows
an example of
VeA
grouping:

Group master fader
As you can see all of the drums have been grouped to-
gether so that one fader will control the level of all of the
drums.
The logic automation will let you create 8 of these
yeA
groups but you must remember that a channel can only be
in one group at anyone time.
To create a group select menu on the LCD, press ENTER.,
select group and press ENTER
Now press the PLAY button on the first 8 channels and the
adjacent GREEN LEDs will light
This shows that these
channels are in the group. Now press one of the REC
buttons on channell
to 8 and the adjacent RED LED will
light to show it is the master fader for the group. Only one
master is allowed for each group. The master now con-
trols the level of all of the other channels in the group.
8
VeA
groups are allowed and if you turn the dial you will
be able to select another group.
