MULTIMIX 8/4 DIGITAL
3) Potentiometers 1- 8:
A considerable advantage of the
ITEC-MultiMix
is the manual controllability of the volumes
in a most simple form, namely by means of the potentiometers on the front panel. This is the
only way of realising a really user-friendly stand-alone solution. The 8 volume controls can be
allocated individually; and you can also control several inputs by one control only(e.g. stereo
sources: contro the left and right channel by one pot only).
The potentiometer’s scale shows, apart from the usual 0 - 10 inscription, also dB statements.
The correlation is:
7
These figures refer to an attenuation, in relation to the predetermined maximum
amplification.
Example 1:
An input is preset at an amplification of +45 dB (microphone).
The potentiometer is at 7.
The total amplification is: +45 - 15 = +30 dB.
Example 2:
several control elements have been chosen for this input (see software
description „basic configuration“):
The potentiometer is at 7.
The external potentiometer is at 8.
Preset is at 9.
The total amplification is: +45 - 15 - 10 - 5 = +15 dB.
4) PC interface:
The 9-pole Sub-Min-D-plug on the front panel (RS 232 PC) is to be used exclusively for
connecting a PC or laptop with
ITEC-MixDesign
software.
A suitable connection cable is the
ITEC-MM-PC-1.5 (
available accessory).
You can use any Nullmodem cable, also known as “AT-Link Cable“.
If your Laptop hasn´t got any serial interface, you can also use a “USB-to-serial” converter,
which are full supported by the software. Take a look at

When connecting a laptop supplied with a switching power supply you may get audible
interferences. This can be avoided by using the galvanically separated interface cable
ITEC-MM-PC-1.5-opto
.
5) Device Status:
The device continuously monitors itself and indicates a possible device failure caused by
various internal faults. The reason for a device fault can be determined from within
MixDesign. See also
