Patchbay Layout
Patchbay Wiring
In the example provided on the previous page, two 96-point
bantam patchbays are used, with plenty of spare points left over.
It also featured a 16 channel DAW interface that provided 16
outputs for mixdown using the summing input and 8 main
channels. Obviously you can juggle this around and adapt the
ideas for your optimal workflow and exact I/O count.
Although 2 bantam bays may look excessive, with a few quality
pieces of outboard gear and a set of hardware synthesisers and
samplers etc - this bay will fill very quickly.
You may notice that the loudspeaker outputs are not on the bay,
this is quite common - as they would typically be hardwired
to your monitors, however adding them to the patchbay may
add flexibility for anyone who likes to switch playback systems
around, or travel with a pair of their favourite monitors.
If you need to squeeze a layout onto a single 96-way bay, it will
fit if you hardwire your microphone tie lines to the ASP2802
microphone preamplifiers and also hardwire your computer
interface or recording platform input and output to the
DAW or
Line inputs and the direct outputs.
Installing your console with a good patchbay system will
increase your workflow, provide the ultimate flexibility and last a
lifetime.
