are triggered to SMPTE time code, you can now have a complete concert controlled by one master unit and
multiple slave units! There are many uses, but those are some of the obvious ones.
What do I put on the Master and Slave’s Media Cards?
That is up to your situation. Master will trigger based on preset #’s and bank #’s. So Preset #1 on the Master
might simply be an Audio backing track, Slave #1’s preset #1 maybe an IEM mix with a MIDI controller file
attached. And so on. Just make sure that presets are aligned so that each preset has some correlation to the other
units. If a particular unit should do nothing-‐ set it up without Audio or Midi and keep it as an empty preset. It
will trigger and do nothing.
How to Setup the Master
In the Global menu, select “Master” from the MASTER/SLAVE screen. Press the
[RIGHT]
button and the
indicator arrow will be next to NET. Assign your Master a Network ID. Every Master and Slave unit must have
the Same NET ID assigned to it. You can have multiple Master/Slave networks running on the same midi
network.
In an example, we set our Master unit to Master and assign it a NET of 1. A net of 0 means that the Liquid Tracks
is not a master and is not on a network-‐ it is a stand-‐alone unit.
ALWAYS
assign a NET of 0 for
ANY
device not
using the Master/Slave system. That’s all you have to do for the Master Unit.
How to Setup a Slave
In the Global menu, select “Slave” from the MASTER/SLAVE screen. Press the
[RIGHT]
button and the indicator
arrow will be next to NET. Assign your Slave a Network ID that matches the Master unit you want to sync with.
Every Master and Slave unit must have the Same NET ID assigned to it. You can have multiple Master/Slave
networks running on the same midi network.
