VCA Slaves on Buses and Outputs Page

The Buses and Outputs page now shows VCA Slave levels as well as the bus path level, if a bus is controlled by a
VCA Master. This applies to Main, Group, Aux and Track bus outputs. See Figure 4 below which shows Aux bus
outputs display when set as VCA slaves to a VCA Master.

Surround Paths

If the accessed fader has a surround path attached, two additional tabs appear within the fader window: 'surround leg
faders' and 'downmix faders'.
Surround Leg Faders
The surround leg faders window allows you to set the relative levels for the separate surround component legs:
• Left and right (LR)
• Centre (C)
• Low frequency enhancement (LFE)
• Left surround and right surround (LsRs)
The individual surround legs can be monitored and cut individually using the CUT, AFL and PFL buttons.

Downmix Faders

The downmix faders tab allows you to make individual alterations to the LR, C, LFE and LsRs levels which will be
used for downmixing the surround feed to stereo and mono outputs. Each Show has default downmix levels which
are defined within the setup area. Making changes within the fader window offsets the downmix levels from these
defaults. See "Downmixing" on page 167
