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 pan
The PAN pot is used to position the group signal within the stereo left / right field.The signal must be assigned to left and right in order for the PAN control to have any effect.

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.
