Smart Faders (SFADs): The Concept
150/ 526 2.0 Eclipse User Guide
Select a different Smart VCA (e.g. BASS) and its slaves appear
in the SZONE replacing the Rack drum mics:
Different SVCAs can have different numbers of slaves; for
example, this OH SVCA has four slaves:
A Smart VCA can control both mono and stereo input channel
slaves. For example, you may configure a single SVCA for all
your stereo effects returns.
Smart Faders can also be used to create a console with
multiple layers:
Each individual microphone can be patched several times in
different layers (split). Thus, you can create several consoles
using the same inputs and benefit of a monitoring and FOH
console on the same control surface. Note that each input
benefits for each console of its own channel processing. No
need to be lost in the pre/post processing sending offered by
the traditional other consoles.
