Operating Your Amplifier: Advanced Editing Features
Overview
In addition to being able to control all the EQ and limiter functions via the front panel, it is also
possible to completely reconfigure the source selections and routing, turn on matrix mixing,
and configure ganging options to speed up editing.
The routing and ganging options are independent for the amplifier outputs and auxiliary
outputs, but source selection is global across the entire device.
Selecting Available Sources (Analogue, AES, Network Audio)
Your amplifier can source audio from analogue, AES
digital, or network locations (if a network card is
fitted).
Analogue and AES digital audio are standard, and
arranged so that AES digital audio can be chosen in
pairs of channels to replace either analogue inputs
A&B together or analogue inputs C&D together, or
all four channels.
Physical input of AES for channels A&B is swapped to
the input XLR for channel C and the AES input for
channels C&D is on the XLR socket for channel D.
In this way, a pair of analogue inputs can remain
connected to channels A&B and a digital stream of
the same audio can be connected to input C, with
fallback from one to the other possible without
repatching.
Assuming the network audio option is also fitted, four
additional digital sources will then be available.
In total, 8 sources can be made available at any one time — four analogue and four digital.
This affects the choices that can be made for routing to the inputs of the DSP channels.
The rules are as follows:
Analogue A and B is available at all times;
If AES A&B is selected, Analogue C cannot be used (shares XLR C);
If AES C&D is selected, Analogue D cannot be used (shares XLR D);
If AES A&B is chosen, Dante A&B cannot be used (shares SRC One);
If AES C&D is chosen, Dante C&D cannot be used (shares SRC Two);
Source selection is therefore affected by the selection of AES inputs, which then controls the
choice of input source selections on offer to any input processing channel. Switch any
required AES sources first, then select the required source combination.
