Another use of a bus would be to feed a stage monitor. One typical use of a bus would be an effects loop (where for example, different channels feeding the bus and the reverb effect associated with it, do so at different levels, so that a snare drum has a small amount of reverb applied while a lead vocal has a large amount of reverb). On a live sound console such as the X32, channels can be combined into a single output channel in two ways.Ī “Bus” is a combined collection of channel signals where each channel feeding the bus can be done so with a variable level. Press the corresponding mute group button, on the console top panel to mute that specific mute group and all channels belonging to it. The channel SELECT buttons will now work normally again.Ĥ. When you are done assigning channels to the mute group, press the MUTE GRP button next to the display again. While holding the desired Group button (located on top panel’s lower right-hand corner), press the SELECT keys for any channels you wish to assign to that mute group.ģ. By assigning them to a mute group, you can quickly mute/unmute a large group of channels, which is much faster than muting/unmuting each channel one by one.Ģ. This is particularly useful in theater contexts, where groups of microphones (such as the ones belonging to a group of background performers) may need to be muted and unmuted often. Individual channels can be assigned to these mute groups, allowing you to mute multiple channels with a single button push. 29 X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual 5.8 Using Mute Groups
