For example, on larger shows, you might have center fill speakers for audience members sitting front & center. You might want to send only vocals to those speakers since the instrument amps are already aimed in their face. Or you might want to send a live mix to recording machines, which may ou may not differ from the main mix, I have used them for center cluster, balcony fill, down-fill & surrounds for theater shows, or for broadcast feeds. They give you a flexibility that come in very handy. - Denny

On the Series Two, it's an 11x2 matrix, with the "11" being the 8 subgroups, and the LCR master. The "2" is two outputs that you can use for whatever feed/send that can benefit from a different mix of those subgroups/masters. (And please don't top-post.) -- Joe Kotroczo kotroczo(a)mac.com |
