[QUOTE="Brian jojade, post: 205966, member: 211"] That was always a gripe I had with the Mackie board. The mute switch is placed after the EQ section. You can internally modify your pre fade aux busses to be pre or post EQ, but never post mute. If they are post fade auxes, then they are after the mute switch as well. You can't do a simple mod to make the pre-fade auxes post mute. Ridiculous design decision, IMO. Pretty much every other board I've worked with has the mute earlier up in the chain so it mutes everything. But, I'll agree with Caleb. If your only option is to mix a show on the Mackie 1604, bring something else. For less than a grand, you can have a full digital replacement that pretty much can be dropped into place. [/QUOTE]
