Fostex LM16 - Solo Monitor Function; Channel Grouping for Mixing

33
Model LM16 [Mixer basics]
You can group channels to group busses for
effective mixing.
Using the channel grouping function, you can
adjust levels of grouped channels using a
single fader while maintaining the balance
between channels.
Channel grouping
By setting the group assign switch (1-2 or 3-
4) of a channel to ON, the channel signal is
sent to group busses 1 and 2 or 3 and 4. A
group buss signal is output from the [GROUP
OUT] jacks.
When the [ASSIGN TO STEREO OUT] switch
above the group fader is set to ON, the group
buss signal is output to the corresponding
stereo buss.
For example, it would be a good idea to as-
sign channels for drums to a group. You can
control the level of drums using the corre-
sponding group fader without altering the
balance.
