audio group control features

This section provides standard features for the Group bus masters. Signals that are
assigned to the Audio groups are summed together to make up the audio Groups. A
full featured dynamics control section (see previous section) can be engaged for pro-
cessing the summed group signals.These signals can be assigned to the Left, Right and
Mono buses and appear at the Group output jacks on the rear panel.

Group insert ON switch
The Insert point is located after the group summing amp and before the
dynamics control system. External signal processors can be inserted into the
group via 1/4" TRS connectors (send and return) on the rear panel.The
SEND signal is unbalanced and the RETURN can accept both unbalanced
and balanced signals.

Insert is switched OUT. Any signal coming into the Insert RETURN

jack is ignored.The Insert SEND jack can be used to derive a pre dynamics,
pre fader output from the group without interrupting the group's normal
signal flow.

Insert is switched IN.The Insert RETURN jack is active. A signal

processor patched to the groups insert is switched into the signal path.

with varying brightness in proportion to the pre-fader audio signal.When the sig-
nal approaches clipping, either pre or post fader, the LED illuminates red.
