A mute group lets you mute a selected combination of channels with a single key press. Applications
include muting unused channels when mixing different tracks, muting all effects, muting a group of
instruments etc...
The GS3000 includes 4 mute groups controlled by a bank of large buttons in the automation channel.
Each of the 4 mute groups can be operated either on its own or in combination with the other three. When
operated together, the mute groups effectively combine together. The mutes in the I/O channels and the
mutes in the dual stereo input channels and aux sends 5 and 6 in the master section can be included in a
mute group. Group settings can also be archived via MIDI.
Channel and/or monitor path mutes can be made ‘ALL SAFE’ to prevent them being affected by the mute
groups. They can still be operated manually.
