Changing input bus pre/post routing
Insert effects on input busses are always pre fader. The FX chain is not affected by the channel’s gain fader.
The Pre/Post Fader Send button allows you to create cue mixes that are not affected by the gain (or mute/pan) stages of the bus or
track.
• When Pre Fader Send is selected, your audio signal flows as follows: bus effects — bus send — bus pan — bus volume.
• When Post Fader Send is selected, your audio signal flows as follows: bus effects — bus pan — bus volume — bus send.
Note: The trim level is added to the pan automation settings so your panning envelope is preserved, but with an offset applied. For
example, setting the trim control to 9 percent left has the same effect as moving every envelope point 9 percent to the left.
Note: The trim level is added to the volume automation settings so your envelope is preserved, but with a boost or cut applied. For
example, setting the trim control to -3 dB has the same effect as decreasing every envelope point by 3 dB.
