4.5 Assign Section
The channel input signal can be routed to any or all of the
8 subgroup busses as well as the stereo mix busses by-
selecting the relevant routing push-buttons.
4.5.a. pan
This control (with a 4.5 dB loss at its center point) pans
the signal between the odd and even subgroup busses as well
as the left and right master busses, when selected.
4.5.b.c.d.e.f. (routing the input)
Selection of any routing button assigns the channel signal
via the pan-pot to a pair of output groups, or to the
stereo mix. EXAMPLE: To assign a channel to buss 1, you
would press the 1-2 (5.b) switch and turn the panpot
fully counter-clockwise or to assign to buss 2 you would
pan fully clockwise. Now that you know how to assign to the
subgroup busses, we can now move on to the exciting world of
"Floating Subgroups".
Subgrouping
Due to the innovative D&R Technical Design Team, subgrouping
may never be the same. Enter the "Floating Subgroup System".
The idea behind it is having subgroup amplifiers only where
you need them. This means; there are no summing amps
preceding every channel output. But with the "Floating
Subgroup System" it is still possible to subgroup signals
before they are sent to the channel outputs. The DAYNER has
8 subgroup amplifiers which are physically located on one
of the printed circuit boards in the master section. All
signals coming from the channel routing 1 thru 8 (5.b thru
f) are mixed in the subgroup amps and sent back via 8 busses
to the output section (from subs) of each channel. With the
routing buttons, you send signals to the subamps and with
the "from sub" buttons you receive signals from the subamps.
In this way you can select which channel output to receive
the subgroup signals. You can even send the subgroup signals
to more than one output. To record a stereo image, it was
necessary to give the odd numbered channel modules
(1-3-5-7-9-11 etc.) the output from subamps 1-3-5-7 only,
and give the even channel modules (2-4-6-8-10 etc.)
subgroup outputs 2-4-6-8 only. Stereo subgroups must be made
in pairs of 2. The Trim control can adjust balance while the
sub to mix routing push button can route this whole subgroup
signal to the master left/right busses. NOTE: Odd numbered
channels to the left master and even numbered channels to
the right master outputs.
