[QUOTE="Steve Anderson, post: 80335, member: 630"] Re: VCA vs POP I think also (from tradeshow playing, have yet to mix on one) the POP groups will automatically adjust when you add something to them. Same with the VCAs. E.g. you have ch's 1, 2, 3, 7, 11, 12, 13 all assigned to the VCA (or POP) you then add ch's 8 and 9. When you select the POP group now, they appear as 1,2,3,7,8,9,11,12,13... of course this only works with electronic scribble strips. Think some of the power comes from the fact that you can use automation to change the assignments from snapshot to snapshot... [I]at least I think you can! [/I]MCA's are like another set of VCA's (or many sets actually) for the aux outputs. When you grab the VCAs whilst an aux output is selected, you are only affecting the channels send levels to that aux output. What's assigned to the VCAs is what is assigned to the MCA's but the MCA's only affect the ch aux send levels. Hmmm... so hard to describe that coherently, and I think I failed, makes more sense when in front of console (says Steve after 15 mins at a tradeshow) Someone correct me if I'm wrong please...
