Mix Groups and VCA Masters
An existing Mix Group can be assigned to a VCA
Master, or a new Mix Group can be assigned to a
VCA Master while it is being created. Only one
group can be assigned to a VCA Master at a time.
A VCA Master cannot control a group that in-
cludes itself.
Setting Group Attributes
When creating a Mix Group or a Mix/Edit
Group, you can select the Mix window parame-
ters that will be linked for that group. These
linked parameters are the attributes of the group.
You can select attributes in the Globals page and
then set individual groups to follow the Global
settings, or you can select attributes for groups
individually.
To select attributes in the Global page:
1 While creating or modifying a group, click
Globals in the Group dialog.
2 Select the base set of attributes for groups in
your session.
3 Click OK to save the group and the new
Globals settings.
When the Main Pan attribute is enabled for
groups, grouped behavior applies to the Link,
Front inverse, Rear inverse and Front/Rear
inverse controls in stereo and multichannel
panner windows.
