4.2 Matrix Tab
The matrix DSP object is the DSP object linking inputs to outputs. While very typical on commercial DSP products, it may be new for
some of you. The following section will summarize the basics of configuration.
Matrix switchers work as a “matrix” where:
- Rows are inputs
- Columns are outputs
- And the status(ON/OFF) of the buttons at the crosspoint of rows (inputs) & columns (outputs) will define the routing and
mixing of the audio to one of 8 outputs.
The following configuration shows how the matrix should be configured for a 4way configuration with:
- Left analog audio input being routed to analog outputs 1-4
- Right analog audio input being routed to analog outputs 5-8
Note how labels of input channels and output channels followed on the Matrix mixer to simplify your routing.
Let’s illustrate the concept of configuration of this block using a 3way configuration + 2 subs where both Left & Right signals are being
mixed (combined).
