Chapter 7. DCA groups/Mute groups

On the PM1D system, channels can be assigned to a DCA group/mute group to adjust the levels or switch muting on/off
for a group of channels. This chapter explains operations for DCA groups and mute groups.

DCA groups

The PM1D system has 12 DCA groups to which input channels (input channels, ST IN channels) or output channels
(MIX channels) can be assigned. By using the DCA faders in the DCA GROUP block of the console, you can control the
levels of each DCA group.

Assigning a channel to a DCA group

Input channels (input channels, ST IN channels) can be assigned to DCA groups 1–12. Output channels (MIX channels)
can be assigned to DCA groups 9–12. (However, it is not possible for input channels and output channels to exist in the
same DCA group.) Here we will explain how to assign channels to a DCA group.
[Procedure]
1. In the DCA GROUP block of the console, turn on
the FADER STATUS [DCA] switch (the LED will
light).

The FADER STATUS [DCA] switch lets you use the
DCA faders to control DCA groups. (The DCA fad-
ers can also be used as input channel or MIX channel
faders.)

2. In the DCA GROUP block, press one of the
[ASSIGN DCA] switches 1–12 to select a DCA
group (1–12).

3. In the INPUT block, ST IN block, or MIX OUTPUT
block, press the [DCA] switch for the channels that
you wish to assign to the DCA group you selected
above.
For that channel, the [DCA] LED of the selected
DCA group will light. You can assign either input
channels (input channels, ST IN channels) or output
channels (MIX channels).
