| Buses (subgroups), Main
mix |
| |
| Buses are, simply put, a
routing system. There will be buttons near the fader on
each channel for each subgroup, allowing
you to assign that channel to one or more of these
subgroups. Think of the buses is
mini-mixes. One very common use of a
bus is to assign all the drum channels (floor tom, kick,
hi-lo tom, hi-hat, snare, etc.) to one
bus. This way, the engineer can change the volume of the
drumset in the total mix without
having to change each fader on each channel. Other uses
include groups of singers (girls, boys;
leads, harmony), instruments (main, backup; brass,
woodwind, percussion), etc. |
| |
| Just remember that changing
the fader on a bus is NOT equivalent to changing the
faders on all of its assigned
channels. It simply changes the volume of that
particular mix of channels .relative to the entire mix.
Channels can be assigned to multiple buses, and changing
the volume of one bus with channel 6
in it will not change the volume of channel 6 in any
other subgroups |
