RE: stupid question of the month...
heh, you don't know what subgroups are on a hardware mixer?.... basicaly subs allow you to route multiple tracks to a dedicated stereo or mono bus from where the combination of the individualy mixed channels can then all be raised or lowered in level with just one fader or fader pair. It also for example allows you to add a stereo compressor over a set of 3 or 4 backing vocals or a drumset or just the toms panned across a stereo bus.
In a live situation (typicaly but aslo it can be done in studio mix) one can mix the drums individual parts relative to each other to get the kit balanced, then send the whole lot to a stereo Bus, and then easily tweak the overall level of all the drums at once while retaining their relative individual levels to each other
