100 ALPHA with Bluefin
The Options - Misc Screen allows
various console functions to be set.
Mic input headroom
This area allows the channel mic input
headroom to be set. This is the headroom
available above the input gain setting, up
to the channel fader.
For example, if the input gain is set to 40 dB
and the mic input headroom is 36 dB, then
the channel will handle up to -4 dB up to
the fader which can be backed off to avoid
clipping of the program output. Any pre-
fader insert or pre-fader feeds to aux sends,
tracks, or direct outputs will not handle this
level and so these should not be used where
this headroom is needed. Please be aware
that selecting a high headroom value will
compromise the noise specification slightly
but this should not be noticeable in practice.
Mic/line input impedance
The gain setting at which the mic/line
input impedance changes can be set.
Assign panel rotary control push-
switch sets default value
Each rotary control incorporates a switch
which is operated by pushing the control.
This rotary control push-switch can be
used to set the value of the control to
its default. This feature is enabled and
disabled using the buttons on this screen.
PFL overpress
When enabled, the PFL overpress will
change that fader to be the currently
assigned fader. This allows adjustments
to be made whilst PFL is active. Upon
release of the PFL overpress, selection
will revert to the previous currently
assigned fader.
Wild control push-switch sets
default value
So long as the push switch option is not
set to perform and IN/OUT function as
MISCELLANEOUS SCREEN
described below. It can be used to set the
function to a default value, such as pan
centre or 0 dB gain.
If the Wild control push switch is set
to control ON/OFF or IN/OUT status
for Aux Send, Input Delay or Front Pan
controls, then the reset to default function
will not take effect.
Wild Control Push-Switch Option
If a Wild control has an aux send, front
pan, delay or track cut function assigned
to it, the user can control the ON/OFF
or IN/OUT status of these using the
Wild control push-switch on the channel
control module. This feature is enabled or
disabled using the buttons on this screen.
Layer lock
This allows channels selected on the
USER - LAYER LOCKING screen to be
kept on the selected layer, regardless of
the ALL A/B function. The active layer
can still be changed using the fader A/B
button.
Assign lock
If the layer lock is enabled, not only are
the ALL A/B buttons locked out from
changing the fader’s active layer, but the
fader A/B buttons are also disabled. This
is to allow critical audio channels to be
kept available for immediate control.
All A/All B Button Functions
These buttons set the functionality of the
All A and All B buttons on the assignable
fader and Functions panel when using a
short press.
If set to Latch View”, a short press of
an All A or All B button will display the
paths on the control surface until the
button is pressed again. This is so that
the console’s A/B display pattern is not
lost. The console will revert back to the
previously displayed layer on each fader.
A long press on the ALL A and ALL B
buttons will switch all the channel faders
to display either their A path or their B
path permanently.
