Ways to use the new features.

No I don't suppose it really does matter what it's called 

I called it a DCA 'cos that's what it is (X32 training aside WK )

Very contracted anus?

ROTFL.... we've all done gigs with those

LOL, sorry Sam, I need to relax a little
Tip I once got:
Never take laxatives and sleeping pills at the same time

"The screen shots to the left display the default settings of the digital trim...0.0 dB for those counting."
I'm in awe of that explanation. 
There's an old saying "One man's junk is another man's treasure" that applies here.
Robo erectile dysfunction, short term memory loss all are symptoms of the JL pandemic, I'd have it looked at if I were you.

On the subject of the pandemic, do you ever cross paths with him over at "Behringersville"?
I wonder is he as rude over there....?

Digital trim addressed on page 30 of the reference guide. Didn't need to RTFM to find that out.
Does it REALLY matter if it's called a DCA or VCA in this device?
We get the idea what it's trying to achieve, no "X32 training" necessary.

reference guide ? what reference guide
on my version of MF3 when I select the reference guide I get a link to the DL32r hardware guide only...nothing on MF3
if you have a link to the MF3 guide could you please post it here
by the way, with regards to VCA versus sub groups...VCA or DCA as they should be called, are only a volume control, so you can assign a stereo pair to them without losing the stereo image or having to pair the DCA's. If you assign a stereo pair to a sub group you have to pair 2 subgroups to maintain the stereo image.

Actually there's a different persona not sure it's him, but if he ever tried that there he'd be gone. I'm not very active there either but do visit some times. There is life beyond forums.
Peace.

Let's be positive now  It does make for some lively conversations and witty repartee now and then.

With as often as MicroSoft changes the names of things, nearly every new OS, we really ought to get over worrying about whether it should be DCA, VCA or BFH.  (Always liked the last one.  It stands there with RCH. Wonder if that one ever made one of the acronym translation pages on the web.)  In my mind the VCA is an addition that these groups made unnecessary.  But hey, I'll take a functional unnecessary feature over missing ones any day.  Mackie did a lot of good in this upgrade, and they need our thanks.

[Harpman]

So here's a scenario.  My first 5 channels for Kepi's 5-piece are vocal channels. She is on CH 1 and the others are 4 male backup vocalists (CH 2-5) Certain tunes the lead vocals may change to the guitarist, keyboardist, bassist or drummer.  Creating a sub group for the backup vocals doesn't make sense since they are also lead vocalists at different time of the gig. So what would be a "Best Practice"?  Also, vocalists are typically EQ'd a bit different (not all the time), so if I were to add them to a sub group, would it make sense to leave the EQ flat for the sub group and leave their EQ presets the way they are?

LOL, got to love acronyms . Mackie does deserve credit, but they are a marketing engine like all the others.  Couldn't release the DL32R without MF 3.0.  Also, they are "behind the 8 ball" in digital mixers.  Behringer IMHO is leader of the pack based on features and functionality.  Their XR18 is $200 USD cheaper than the DL1608, provides multitrack recording and 6 AUX sends, and if I'm going to spend 2K, I would probably put it toward to X32 versus the DL32R.  Don't get me wrong, Mackie has made a push to be more competitive in the digital arena, but has a ways to go.

Erm, the XR series still doesn' t exist!
