About the control group screens
Each type of control group screen has — apart from the channel strip, which is
common to most screens — two main areas (shown right). The management
section at the top lets you choose the group members, and is common to all
control group types. While the bottom section contains the controls and sections
specic to each type, which are described later on in this chapter.
Management section
The group management section of each control group screen has two main
panels. The left panel has ve group-dependent lists of channels/mixes from
which you can choose group members. The right panel contains the current
group members (the example below shows a VCA group). Group members are
moved between the two main panels using the ADD and REMOVE buttons.

Programming the groups
In general, you can use either the control surface or GUI to create, manage and
recall the groups. However, you might nd it easier to use the GUI, as all of the
channels are available simultaneously on the screen.

For details, see “Using VCA/POP groups” in Chapter 14.
>> To program a mute group at the control surface
1. In the auto mute groups section (master bay), press and hold the SELECT
button of your chosen auto-mute group.
2. Do one of the following:
• To add inputs to the group, press the LCD select button of each input
channel you want in the group. If necessary, navigate the desired input
channels to the control surface.
• To add outputs to the group, press the quick access button (bottom of
each output fast strip) of each output you want in the group. If necessary,
navigate the desired output channels to the control surface.
>> To program a VCA/POP, auto-mute or talk group at the GUI
1. At the GUI, open the screen of the desired control group type. For example,
for a VCA group open the VCA Groups screen.
2. Click the group. For example, VCA1.
3. Click the channels that you want to add to the group.
4. Click ADD. The channels will be moved to the group member panel.
If you want to remove any members from the group, click the channels that you

The channels are moved back to their respective lists.
