Maximum noise rejection and channel separation
are desired, and when the seating configuration is
unlikely to change. This configuration is optimal for
use with automixing.
Aiming Pickup Areas
All pickup patterns (except omnidirectional and toroid) can be aimed directly at individual talkers to provide the
clearest possible signal with minimal room ambience. In the Configuration menu, aim the pickup lobes by selecting
and dragging the channel. The angle can also be adjusted in 15° increments from the channel properties menu on
the right side of the workspace.
Adding or Removing a Channel
To add or remove a channel, go to Configuration.
• Select Add Channel to add another channel.
• Select Remove Channel or press the Delete key on your keyboard to remove a channel.
Removing a channel also deletes any EQ or gain settings applied to that channel.
Custom Presets
Use presets to quickly save and recall settings. Up to 10 presets can be stored on each device to match various
seating arrangements. A preset saves all device settings except for the Device Name, IP Settings, and Passwords.
Importing and exporting presets into new installations saves time and improves workflow. When a preset is select
ed, the name displays above the preset menu. If changes are made, an asterisk appears next to the name.
Note: Use the default settings preset to revert to the factory configuration (excludes Device Name, IP Settings,
and Passwords).
