ML4000 sits squarely in the center of the ML series, providing an ideal
solution for those customers who need similar functionality to the ML5000
but who can't justify the size or expense.
The console boasts advanced VCA capability and Allen & Heath's innovative
LCRplus panning system. They even found a way to provide a similar level
of show automation capability to ML5000, thanks to their archiver / snapshot
PC software (available free from the Allen & Heath site).

any signal positioning across the C and LR busses.
