Nested VCA Faders

VCA faders can control other VCA faders.

If you use several VCA faders that control different channels, you can create another VCA fader that controls the VCA faders. This allows you to control the volume level of more than one selection of connected channels at the same time.

Technically, a VCA fader that controls other VCA faders affects the volume level of all VCA faders and all connected channels.

Example

A VCA fader (main fader) controls a nested VCA fader that has been set to -10 dB. The latter VCA fader controls a connected channel that had an original level of -3 dB and that is set to -13 dB. If you change the main fader level from 0 to +4 dB, the controlled VCA fader is set to a level of -6 dB, and the connected channel is set to a level of -9 dB.
