Selecting Groups
The GROUP/SELECT switch allows an existing group or
groups to be selected in the CHANNEL MATRIX. This is use-
ful, for example, for selecting the drums group and then
also selecting the percussion group. This “drums and per-
cussion group” may now be combined into a new, larger
group containing all members of both groups.
✽ Previous selections are not retained when entering this mode.
To select groups:
1 Press the SELECT switch in the GROUP section. The LED
flashes. In the CHANNEL MATRIX area, the switch (A-Z)
LEDs of all existing groups flash.
2 Press a CHANNEL MATRIX switch (A-Z) to select an exist-
ing group. The switch LED lights solid, and the name of the
group appears momentarily in the CHANNEL/GROUP
scribble strip.
3 Select other groups by pressing additional CHANNEL MA-
TRIX switches. The switches in the CHANNEL MATRIX are
latching, meaning that any number of active groups may be
selected or deselected at any time without the need to hold
down any additional modifier key. The CHANNEL/GROUP
scribble strip displays the name of the group last selected.
To deselect a group from the current process:
1 Press the CHANNEL MATRIX switch corresponding to the
(un)desired group. Its LED will begin to flash indicating that
the group is no longer selected. The name of the group be-
ing deselected will briefly appear in the CHANNEL/GROUP
scribble strip.
2 Press the flashing SELECT switch or the ESCAPE switch to
exit GROUP SELECT mode.
