Returns
Configuration controls
The return channel configuration controls comprise source, stereo linking and safes.
These can all be changed from the GUI, although only the channel safes can be changed
from the control centre. Unlike auxes, returns don't have any EQ or dynamics facilities
so that the EQ and DYN switches are inoperative in this mode.
Each of the four operative safes in the output channel safes section have local LED
indication. Also, except for the MIC safe, these have local LED status indication on
every area of the control surface when a mix channel (or VCA control group master) is
selected.
