Channel Settings affects individual channel settings, but may be
applied to all channels. Manual turns on/off channel gating. NOM
Gain turns on/off channel contribution to NOM (number of open
mics) attenuation. Direct Output designates channel direct output
signal as Post Gate / Pre NOM, Post Gate / Post NOM, or Off.
(Direct Outputs must be enabled when placing Auto Mixers from
the Object Toolbar.) Set All causes current Channel Settings to be
applied to all channels. Off Attenuation determines the amount of
attenuation applied when channel is inactive. Gate Hold Time
determines length of time before channel becomes inactive, once
signal is no longer present.
Logic Outputs affects individual Logic Output settings, but may be
applied to all Logic Outputs. (Logic Outputs must be designated when
placing Auto Mixers from the Object Toolbar). Logic Output selects
Follow Gate, On, or Off condition of the Logic Output. Invert reverses
operation of the Logic Output (off when channel active). Set All causes
current Logic Output settings to be applied to all channels.
Mix-Minus Combiners Control Dialog
Mix-Minus Combiners are provided to enhance the capabilities of Auto Mixers in
mix-minus and input expansion applications. Mix-Minus Combiners combine
control data only and, therefore, have no audio outputs. Inputs to a Mix-Minus
Combiner come from outputs of separate Auto Mixers. Ch / Combine allows input
channels (1, 2, 3 etc.) to be grouped into specific combinations (A, B, C, etc.).
These combinations automatically determine proper routing of control data for the
Auto Mixers. Control data represents NOM (number of open mics) and ATS
(adaptive threshold sensing) information. Mix-Minus Combiners are used when the
Auto Mixer outputs are also connected to a separate Matrix Mixer (to create
multiple 'mix-minus' outputs). Also, Mix-Minus Combiners allow large Auto
Mixers to be created from multiple, smaller ones. This is useful when more than 32
inputs are required, or when an Auto Mixer must be placed into multiple E Desk
units (for proper DSP allocation or for physical location of inputs).
Right-clicking over certain settings will provide a menu of additional options.
