Group to Group routing

Seeing the dlive 2.1 update with group to group routing. I think many users would love to see this feature added to Avantis. Main uses would be routing drum groups (Kick, Snare, Toms & Metal groups) to a Drum (bus) group. Would be a game changer Agee for the Avantis and level up on Digico.

Yes, we need this. Probably we need an update for Avantis at all…

Yes, it could be a great improvement !!!

Yes - also for newQu and SQ please!

Big +1 for this, especially with the increased bus count in the new update, group to group routing is more needed than ever

This will be really essential!!!

Update 2.0 was great, also want to bring this suggestion once again up!

If I could vote, I’d vote for this.

It would be nice to have.

Just thinking… Could you get around it by routing qll of your channels to buses and then routing those into channels, so you can distribute those into buses again?
A little messy, but potentially a temporary workaround…
I’ve routed mix buses into channels before, not sure if you can route other bus outputs into channels…

You can create normal groups kick, snare, toms, cymbals for example and send those 0db to an aux (drum dummy), create a drum group and assign the drum dummy aux as the input for the drum group.

Every drum related element has to go through the drum dummy, either through a group(kick,snr,etc.) like i said before or directly like a Knee mic for example. This way everything is time aligned.

You can even create a parallel kick and snare group fed from the kick and snare input channels and send it to the drum dummy.

Doing this workaround creates a different latency path for the drums in this case in relation with the other elements you have going through normal input to group to main path (bass, gtrs, etc) so you are changing the pocket of the band, but it is so minimal that no one would notice. Actually in the Studio engineers would introduce some delay between band elements to create depth or separation.

I guess this is what is happening already on the background inside the dlive consoles, only you can do it there without a dummy…

Yes, please!! That would be awesome!

Yes please. Also adding the monitoring section to this so it’s not forgotten. If you could route the IEM and Wedge busses to the Matrix that would help alot
