I've just started using the STEM 247 (I'm actually building a monster mixer that I've been thinking about for a long time, and luckily the modular mixer already has almost everything I want...especially the VCAs in the sidechainers

Anyways, it seems the first three sends are POST fader. Sends 4-6 have a PRE/POST fader switch, but those sends are always POST fader (in my test, whether the button is pushed or not, the fader still controls the volume of the bus).

My work around is to have a separate Route 247/245 connected to the same inputs as the STEM 247, giving me the pre-fader buses I am after.

Otherwise, I am finally making more use of this mixer, and it's possibilities are huge. Many Many thanks!

Stem 247 and 127 are the bomb with the MB7
