Inhibitive submasters
Creating
A red LED on the bump button indicates an inhibitive submaster. Only
submasters 13 through 24 may be inhibitive.
Inhibitive submasters allow you to limit the output of a group of channels.
Channel outputs are limited to the level at which you set the slider. An
inhibitive submaster set at 10 (100 percent), does not affect channel
output. An inhibitive submaster controls the levels of its assigned
channels in the same way the Grandmaster controls the levels of all
channels.
Note: If channels that you expect to see on stage are missing or at the
wrong levels, check to see if a submaster is inhibiting them. If a channel
is fully inhibited by a submaster, its level will be displayed as a yellow zero.

fades from its current slider location to zero and back, using its recorded
fade times.
