14 Emotion LV1 Mixer | Quick Start
Identify the network port: Select the host computer network port that is being used by the
SoundGrid network.
Add, remove, or assign I/O devices: Use Racks A and B to assign hardware I/O devices and
software I/Os, such as the SoundGrid ASIO/ Core Audio drivers. Drivers can be assigned to the
local machine or to a remote computer for remote recording or to serve as a playback source for
a mixer session.
Click the down arrow on the right side of a device slot, then use the drop-down menu to
add or remove devices. Up to 8 I/Os can be assigned to each rack.
The status (On/O ), sample rate, and clock source are indicated on the device icon. The rst I/O assigned to a system is
by default the clock master. A network master is colored blue, a slave green. If an icon is red, then its device is
oine, not available, or incompatible with the version of SoundGrid that you are running.
FW indicates the status of the device’s rmware. Status indications are color-coded. Refer to the eMotion LV1 User Guide for
details. To update device rmware, click on the FW button. This will initiate a scan of the hardware and then oer options.
Click the ID button to identify the hardware associated with a device icon. This illuminates the device’s front panel lights. You
can also identify a device from its software control panel.
Click on the Gear button to open the device’s control panel, set up preamps and adjust other I/O parameters.
Rack B
Racks A and B are identical. Assign hardware I/O devices and devices in either. You may choose
to assign stage devices in one rack and FOH devices in another, or to divide the assignments in
other ways. But this is not necessary.
