Fader Gang Grouping Offsets
General
Care should be taken when using Fader Gang Groups
since offsets between faders can be lost.
Setting Up a Fader Gang Group
1
Touch {AUDIO} at the bottom left of the LCD for
its pop-up, and then touch {FADER GROUP} for the
AUDIO FADER/CUT GROUPING GUI.
2
Touch one of the {GROUP ‹} tabs at the left of the
GUI which is not being used.
3
If the first button to the right of the {GROUP ‹} tab
is not displaying {GANG}, touch once or twice until
{GANG} is displayed.
4
The main area of the GUI displays a button for
each fader in the system. Touch three or more
buttons to group them, indicated by ‘GP#’
displayed.
5
Make sure {ON} is displayed on the button next to
the {GANG} button and the Fader Gang Group is
complete.
Using a Fader Gang Group
Here are a few points to remember when using Fader
Gang Group:
• Moving any one fader will cause all the other faders
to move according to their relationship when they
were set up.
• Touching and holding any single fader and then
moving another will change the relationship.
• The relationship between faders is based on dBs.
This will be reflected according to the fader scale
markings which are not linear. The amount of fader
travel is less per dB at the lower level settings, for
example.
• IMPORTANT: Moving a fader with a higher level
setting than others in the group all the way down to
the end stop, then releasing touch will reset the
grouping relationship.
• IMPORTANT: Moving a fader with a lower level
setting than others in the group all the way up to the
end stop, then releasing touch will reset the grouping
relationship.
Note
VCA Fader Gang Grouping allows offsets to be retained at
all times but please note, one fader must become the master
for other faders within the group.
