[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 68376, member: 158"] Re: Groups vs. Mix Buses no, i think that pretty much sums it up. :) you may ask "why would i ever use the subgroup feature when i 'lose' options"? but if you really just want something to act like a subgroup and you don't want to have to set all the faders perfectly to unity post-fader, it's a handy shortcut. FWIW, this idea [subgroups that switch-hit to be aux sends] is nothing even remotely new and has been implemented on many analog and digital consoles before the X32. which i think is fine. i lost any real use for subgroups when VCA consoles came into vogue, so using those buses as aux mixes was always MUCH more useful to me.
