Midas M32R User Manual

31 DIGITAL RACK MIXER M32R User Manual
To assign an output path to the option card, perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select an 8-channel signal path that will
be sent to the rst eight channels of the card. Choices include:
• Local 1-8 • AES50-B 25-32
• Local 9-16 • AES50-B 33-40
• Local 17-24 • AES50-B 41-48
• Local 25-32 • Card 1-8
• AES50-A 1-8 • Card 9-16
• AES50-A 9-16 • Card 17-24
• AES50-A 17-24 • Card 25-32
• AES50-A 25-32 • Out 1-8
• AES50-A 33-40 • Out 9-16
• AES50-A 41-48 • P16 1-8
• AES50-B 1-8 • P16 9-16
• AES50-B 9-16 • Aux 1-6/Mon.
• AES50-B 17-24
2. Tap the rst encoder to assign the selected output path,
completing the process.
3. Repeat the process with encoders 2-4 to select output paths for the
other 24 channels or card outputs.
aes50-a / aes50-b
The ROUTING screens aes50-a and aes50-b tabs allow the user to patch
various console output paths to the outputs of the dual AES50 connectors.
These connectors can feed other AES50-equipped devices, such as a digital stage
box or standalone multi-track recorder.
The M32R contains two separate AES50 connectors, labelled A and B. These dual
connectors allow for an increased level of exibility in networking the console to
various AES50-based equipment.
Each of the two AES50 tabs contains the same following sets of parameters
that can be adjusted. To assign various console signal paths to the AES50
connectors, perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select an 8-channel signal path that
will be sent to the rst eight channels of the AES50 connector’s output.
Choices include:
• Local 1-8 • AES50-B 25-32
• Local 9-16 • AES50-B 33-40
• Local 17-24 • AES50-B 41-48
• Local 25-32 • Card 1-8
• AES50-A 1-8 • Card 9-16
• AES50-A 9-16 • Card 17-24
• AES50-A 17-24 • Card 25-32
• AES50-A 25-32 • Out 1-8
• AES50-A 33-40 • Out 9-16
• AES50-A 41-48 • P16 1-8
• AES50-B 1-8 • P16 9-16
• AES50-B 9-16 • Aux 1-6/Mon.
• AES50-B 17-24
2. Tap the rst encoder to connect the currently selected signal path to the
AES50 pathway.
3. Repeat the above process for the other ve sets of 8-channel AES50
outputs.
The aes50-b tab works exactly the same as the aes50-a tab, but instead selects
sources sent to the output of the console’s AES50-B connector.
xlr out
The ROUTING screen’s xlr out tab, much like the out 1-16 tab, allows the user to
patch the M32R’s various internal signal paths to the 8 analogue XLR outputs that
are located on the console’s rear panel. This tab, however, allows the XLR outputs
to be patched in blocks of four, rather than individually. Also, on this screen it is
only possible to route the signal to its absolute destination, rather than choosing
the signal path. The available destinations will dier depending on the block
selected. Destinations include:
Block 1-4 / Block 9-12 Block 5-8 / Block 13-16
