Ui24R User Manual
ASSIGN VCA
VCA Groups allow you to control groups of Input Channels from a single VCA Master. For example, you could
put the whole drum kit under the control of a single VCA Master, or if you have a multiple mics on a guitar cabi-
net you could set the ratios with individual channels and then create a Guitar VCA Master - move the VCA Mas-
ter Channel and all Group Member levels will be 'offset' from current levels by the VCA Master level. The Ui24R
is able to assign VCA's from the METERS Sub Menu or from individual Channel Sub-Menu's.
HOW TO ADD/REMOVE MEMBER CHANNELS
VCA channels are assigned via the pop menu accessible by holding down on the desiired channel. All
changes can be made through this menu.
