GP Sums
A GP Sum (General Purpose Summing bus) is a summing bus which cannot be allocated DSP or fader strip
control. They are ideal for applications such as a talkback or AFL.
A source assigned to the control surface can be connected or disconnected from the sum, either pre or post
fader, via control signals created using the
element. The level from the source to the bus
can also be controlled or preconfigured.
