Step 3 – A few things to know before starting 
Before working with the iLive familiarise yourself with its control layout and operating principles. 
Two important keys 
SEL - Select the channel processing. View and adjust the 
parameters for that channel. Within the processing section 
use these keys to open individual processing blocks on the 
screen, or press and hold to send the signal at that point to 
the PAFL system. These keys are also used when copying 
or resetting processing parameters, and for setting up 
ganging, name & colour and strip layout. 
MIX - Select the mix you want to work with. View and adjust 
the assignments, pre/post settings, levels and pan. There is 
an option to choose to use either fader or rotary sends for 
each Aux or Matrix mix. These keys are also used when 
assigning and copying mix parameters, and setting talkback 
assignments, channel safes and more. 
Fader Strip LCD display 
TouchScreen 
The TouchScreen provides access to the FX, setup 
and utility functions and presents an alternative 
graphical view of the channel processing 
parameters. 
Touch a parameter box and change its value using 
the screen encoder. To return to the root menu for 
any screen mode touch the Return button. 
Note - To display the channel parameters on the 
screen make sure all the mode keys next to the 
screen are turned off, or press the CHANNEL 
PROCESSING key. A selected screen key overrides 
the parameter view. 
Note - Do not leave the screen in 
NAME/COLOUR, MIXRACK or SURFACE setup 
mode as these change the function of the  SEL 
keys.
