[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 18220, member: 162"] Re: 01V96 and aux fed subs question The channel EQ still works for tone shaping. This will launch the ancient aux vs. group debate, but in my opinion, I see independent control of the amount of subs per input as via an aux as a detriment, not an advantage. This turns the subwoofers into an ''effect'', rather than part of the system. I don't like having to set levels for everything twice. Others disagree. The primary benefit of aux fed subs is that the slope of the low cut filter on any channel isn't steep enough to prevent some signal from - say a vocal mic - to bleed into the subs. This causes muddiness. With Aux or group fed subs, you have a ''brick wall'' low cut filter, and absolutely nothing from undesirable channels hits the subs. This advantage is the same no matter whether you are using fixed gain sends (groups) or variable (auxes). [/QUOTE]
