VCAs
The VCAs output routing view is a great way to assign multiple channels to a VCA. If only
one or two channels need to be assigned, then the input routing view (pages 78-82) may be the way
to go. The VCAs output routing default view will look something like the image shown below.
Notice that everything is disengaged (light gray). This is the standard setup, but this is YOUR mixer and you
get to choose what gets assigned and what doesn’t.
The VCAs routing view on a DL1608 and DL806 look similar except for the following:
(1) 16 input channels [DL1608] and 8 input channels [DL806] (versus 32 on the DL32R).
(2) One linked iPad channel (versus two linked return channels on the DL32R).
(3) One reverb (versus two on the DL32R).
(4) Four subgroups (versus six on the DL32R).
(5) Four view groups (versus six on the DL32R).
Ok, let’s start with the channel assignments. Channels may be assigned to VCAs via each chan-
nel’s input routing view, but that could be time consuming if there are multiple channels per VCA. Instead,
you could just tap a VCA’s output routing view and assign multiple channels simultaneously. How cool is
that?!
Simply assign channels that you want routed to a VCA by tapping them. Assigned channels illuminate dark
gray while unassigned channels are light gray.
The left side allows you to assign the VCA to view groups.
