Relative
The range of motion for controls in the group is not the same. All controls in the group have the same
value at one point—the lowest level for send, return, and volume levels, and zero for pan controls. Here
are two examples:
Example 1
The volume controls are
grouped in this position
Example 2
The pan controls are grouped in
this position
Custom
Sometimes you want to define a more complex relationship between the controls in a group. For
example:
• You want two controls two operate in reverse—when one fader drops, the other increases (cross
fade).
• You want two volume faders grouped so that they are locked together at maximum level, but drop
at different rates.
• You want two faders to be locked together with the same range of motion, but a third fader grouped
with them to have a different range of motion.
Custom groups let you set the range of motion for each control in the group by entering a starting and
ending value. As any one control in the group is moved from its starting position to its ending position,
the other controls in the group exercise their full range of motion.
When you have defined a custom group, you can adjust the starting and ending position of each control
using the Group Settings dialog box or using popup menus on the controls in the group.
To Add a Control to a Group
1. Right-click on the control.
2. Choose a group from the Group submenu.
