Routing Input Channels to Outputs
Input Channels and FX Returns can be routed to Mains and
Groups, and Matrixes. Signals from Input Channels and FX Re-
turns can be sent to Aux and Variable Group busses, and channels
can be assigned to VCAs.
Routing Inputs to the Mains and Groups
Input Channels and FX Returns can be routed to the Mains L-R,
Mono/Center, and Groups on the S3 control surface using
Multi-Assign, or on-screen.
When assigning channels to the Mains using Multi-Assign, chan-
nels are always assigned to both the Left and Right busses regard-
less of which bus is selected or their linked status. Channels are
assigned to the C/Mono bus separately.
To route channels to the Mains or Groups using Multi-Assign:
1 Do any of the following:
• To route to the Main L-R, select the Left or Right Mains
channel.
• To route to the Center/Mono bus, select the Center/Mono
channel.
• To route to a Group bus, select the desired Group bus.
2 Press the Multi-Assign switch (or button on the Outputs page).
The flashing
Multi-Assign, OK and Cancel switches, and the
banner display at the lower left of the screen indicate
Multi-Assign mode is enabled.
3 Bank Input Channels/FX Returns to the channel strips and
press the channel
Sel switches for the channels you want to
route to the currently targeted output.
4 To confirm the assignment and exit Multi-Assign mode, press
the
OK switch,
5 To cancel the assignment, press the Cancel switch, or press the
Esc key on your keyboard.
To route a channel to the Mains and Groups busses on-screen:

2 Do any of the following on-screen:
• To route to Mains, click the
L–R (left and right) and/or
C/Mono (center/mono) button in the Bus Assigns section so
it is lit.
• To route to a Group bus, click a Groups
1–8 button.
The
L–R, C/Mono, and Groups 1–8 buttons light to indicate its
routing to the corresponding bus.
LR is shown in its corresponding channel encoder display to indi-
cate when a channel is routed to the Main L-R busses.
Assigning Inputs to Matrix Busses
Each of the eight available Matrix mixers can receive up to 12
channels of input. Input sources can be any combination of
Auxes, Groups or Mains, or any other input source via one of the
eight available Matrix User inputs.
Sending Inputs to Auxes and Variable
Groups
Signals from Input Channels and FX Returns can be sent to Aux
and Variable Group output busses using the channel encoders,
Channel Control, or on-screen. See “Adjusting Aux and Variable
Group Send Controls” on page 108.
See “Adjusting the Mains” on page 93 for more informa-
