Mixer Strip Creation

Pre or Post Fader Aux Sends

When you create a New Mixer Strip you have the option to place both Aux Sends after the channel volume fader and mute control or you can place them before the fader and mute. Post-Fader turns down the send level as you lower the volume of the strip. With Pre-Fader selected, you may still hear the effected signal returning from one of the Aux Buses with the volume fader turned down.

With the Pre-Fader box selected, the Aux Send levels are completely unaffected by the Level Fader and Mute settings. The Pre-Fader setting allows you to create two completely different mixes using the Aux Buses since the signal levels of this mix won’t be affected by the fader settings.
