Correct except the Ls and Ms have an open concave so some seperating does take place the cylinder/concave.  But the concave is rather small compared to the regular conventionals so the raddle does some of the seperating too. The number I've seen tossed around is 90% of the grain is seperated at the concave on a properly set conventional.  On a closed concave gleaner, which would be any gleaner except for the L/M series, the seperation process started right behind cylinder were the beater fluffed the straw back to the walkers while the grain dropped onto the raddle.  Still I think the raddle was somewhat inefficient.  An L2/3 has almost as much seperating area as a JD 9600, yet there is no way an L series will come close to a 9600 in wheat.
