Re: How important is VCA capability on your mixer? In what situation? You seem to know the answer in your particular situation (aux-fed subs), but are asking a general question of some kind - not sure which? Are you trying to determine if you are being picky when specifying a system if you request a VCA console? Are you trying to purchase a mixer? Who decides? Who pays? There are certainly situations where a board with no VCAs can work perfectly adequately.Boards without VCAs are becoming less common due primarily to the proliferation of digital boards. Nearly all popular digital boards - even as far down the food chain as an 01v96 have VCAs or some rougly equivalent functionality.
