The group section contains all the controls for level, routing, muting and soloing the group signal. The most important
feature is the that allows the sound engineer to use in a different way the group signal. Generally thisTo LR switch
switch is released when the sound engineer wants to record some grouped signals, while the switch is pressed when
the sound engineer wants to use the groups signal as a part of the signal to be addressed to stereo mix. The main
difference between the above mentioned ways of working concerns the way to group signals.
For recording generally most of the signals to be recorded are collected by direct outs, with just few grouped signals
like choir, keyboards, brass sections, etc. While for live application generally sounds are grouped in a different way,
for example group 1&2 rhythmic section (drum kit, bass, maybe percussion...) in stereo, group 3&4 keyboards, guitars
etc. in stereo and so on. Sometimes sound engineers prefer to have some mono groups for lead solo and lead singer.
Some sound engineers, particularly when they work in small venue with irregular audience position, prefer to have all
groups in mono.
To LR switch
This switch addresses the group signal to L/R path.
PAN
This pot allows the sound engineer to place the sub-group signal in stereo
front from hard left to hard right. Of course you can use it to "move"also
the channel signal in stereo front to create spatial effects.
MUTE
This switch is useful to mute that group signal when you don't need its
sound. This feature is important to reduce noise floor of effects units.
This switch will be lit when it is depressed (engaged).
Fader
This long throw fader will give the sound engineer the ability to carefully
manage the group level from - up to +10dB.
PFL
This switch allows the sound engineer to control the group signal. PFL is
the acronym of pre-fade listen, the signal is pre-fader. This large switch
is illuminated to give you an immediate visual control of which, and how
many channels are in solo.
