GA Diversity Function
What is GA Diversity?
GA Diversity is an output select function that allows you to use the MIX OUT jacks as group 
output jacks or AUX output jacks on the GA32/12 and GA24/12.
You can route either MIX (Variable) bus signals or MIX (Fix) bus signals to the MIX OUT 1–4 
jacks of the GA32/12 and GA24/12. You can select either one of these output signals in the 
Variable/Fix select section.
If the M1–M4 switches in the Variable/Fix select section are set to FIX (
), the corresponding 
MIX OUT jacks will output MIX (FIX) bus signals. Since each channel’s output level for the 
MIX (FIX) bus signals is fixed, the corresponding MIX OUT jacks will function as group 
output jacks.
If the M1–M4 switches in the Variable/Fix select section are set to VARIABLE (
), the 
corresponding MIX OUT jacks will output MIX (VARIABLE) bus signals. Since each channel’s 
output level for the MIX (VARIABLE) bus signals is variable, the corresponding MIX OUT 
jacks will function as AUX output jacks.
The GA Diversity function will enable you to configure a flexible bus system, such as four 
groups and six AUX sends, two groups and eight AUX sends, or 10 AUX sends, etc., depending 
on the application.
Setting the GA Diversity function
1. Press down the M1 switch (
FIX) in the Variable/
The FIX indicator will light up. The MIX OUT 1 output channel 
will receive the MIX (FIX) 1 bus signal, and the MIX OUT 1 jack 
will function as a group output jack.
2. Press the M1 switch again to set it to (
VARIABLE).
The FIX indicator will be turned off. The MIX OUT 1 output 
channel will receive the MIX (VARIABLE) 1 bus signal, and the 
MIX OUT 1 jack will function as an AUX output jack.
3. Set the M2, M3, and M4 switches in the same way.
You can set MIX OUT 1–4 channels to “FIX” or “VARIABLE” 
individually.
