Link Faders Together--Allen & Heath

[jfremm]

Hello everyone,

I am wondering how to link multiple faders together so if I bring up a designated master fader, the others will follow suit. I've looked in the manual, but cannot seem to find the answer.

Thank you for the help!

Did the A&H desk have a model number?

It's an iLive-T80

I may be wrong but does that desk have a dca/vca that could work to serve that function?

Are you wanting the actual physical fader values to change with one master? I have a GLD80 and I'm not aware of that possibility, but it does have DCA's that you can assign channels to control the master value of a group, but it won't change the individual channel values.

The GLD series has a "Ganging" page that will accomplish what you want, however it's limited to absolute linking of values (so if the master is -5dB, *every* ganged fader is -5dB.) This also means none of the faders are really a "master" or "slave" - they're all interlinked. Alternatively you can use a DCA, which IMO is easier and more versatile than the ganging feature in this respect anyway.

I imagine the iLive series would have something similar to the GLD series "ganging".

You can indeed gang things together - at least in iLive v1.94 and higher. They are basically fader links, so that they all move together.

I literally lol'd at this! I could just imagine seeing it now... haha
