Thanks for your reply
Just so I can get my head round this and also to add more meat to my comment:
If i mute a DCA it mutes all channels including pre and post fade sends
If i pull the DCA fader down, does this affect the output levels on the main input faders, or does it only affect the level being sent to the Main mix/matrix sends. What i basically want to know is: If the DCA fader is at the bottom, does pre fade aux sends and ME1 units still get sound.
Sorry if this very simple stuff, trying to get my head round new technology
