Patchbay Layout
Patchbay Wiring
In the example provided on the previous page, two 96-point
bantam patchbays are used, with plenty of spare points left
over.
It also features a 16 channel DAW interface that provides 16
outputs for mixdown using the summing input and eight main
channels. Obviously you can juggle this around and adapt the
ideas for your optimal workow and exact I/O count.
Although two bantam bays may look excessive, with a
few quality pieces of outboard gear and a set of hardware
synthesisers and samplers this bay will ll very quickly.
You may notice that the loudspeaker outputs are not on the
bay. This is quite common as they would typically be hardwired
to your monitors, however adding them to the patchbay may
add exibility for anyone who likes to switch playback systems
around, or travel with a pair of their favourite monitors.
If you need to squeeze a layout onto a single 96-way bay,
it will t if you hardwire your microphone tie lines to the
Control 2802 microphone preampliers and also hardwire
your computer interface or recording platform input and output
to the DAW or Line inputs and the direct outputs.
Installing your console with a good patchbay system will
increase your workow and provide ultimate exibility.
