This is determined from the Master unit (i.e., if Subgroup Merge is enabled on the
Master, the Slave's Subgroups will be merged with the Master's Subgroups). The
Subgroup faders on the Master mixer will control the entire group, and dynamics
processing can be added to the entire mix using the Master's Fat Channel.
If Subgroup Merge is turned Off, each of the four subgroups on both mixers
are locally controlled. So Channels 1-24 can only be assigned to the Subgroups
on the Slave and Channels 25-48 can only be assigned to the Subgroups on
the Master unit. Because the Subgroups on each of the mixers can still be
routed to the Main output on the master unit, unmerging the Subgroups
offers advantages for Effects group mixing. (See Section 8.4.2 for details.)
But this can also be useful in any situation where you want 24 or fewer
channels assigned to the same Subgroup; just do a little careful patching!
Channel Strip presets, Effects presets, and mix Scenes are stored and recalled
locally on each mixer. However, if you are creating a mix Scene, the name that
you create on either of the mixers will be transmitted to the entire chain. For
example, if you store a scene named "3 Mixer Show" on the Master unit, the name
is broadcasted to the slaved units so when you press the Scene and Store buttons
on either Slave, the name you just created on the Master unit is already entered;
all you have to do is scroll to an empty location and press the Store button again.
Channel-strip settings from any channel or bus on either mixer in the chain can be
copied to any other channel or bus on the other mixer in the chain. For example, if
you select Channel 4 on the Slave and press the Copy button, every Select button
on both mixers in the chain will begin to flash. To paste the Channel 4 settings to
any other channel, simply press that channel's Select button: it will stop flashing
and will illuminate. Press the Load button to paste the Fat Channel setting.

On Page 3: Digital in the System menu, you will find
the Subgroup Merge field. The Subgroups on each on
the mixers in the chain can either be merged or local
only.
