Channel Parm off
This input locks parameter control from the channel fader strip. You may use this to prevent
parameters such as mic gain and pan from being altered by the operator.
Ref Src
Selects the reference source. When a source is assigned to the control surface, a reference source
can be assigned at the same time. For example, on a console with two layers – on-air and record –
you could assign the TEL source to both layers automatically. In this parameter box, assign the
reference source (e.g. TEL).
To determine where the reference source appears on the control surface, use the
Ref Src Fader
Offset
option set within the “
System -> Definition -> Param = Fader
”.
Note that changing DSP parameters on one of the sources will affect the other.
Matrix Mic Nr
Matrix Gnet Port
These two fields are used if the audio input to the source is a microphone which requires arbitration.
See
.
Use the
Matrix Mic Nr
field to enter the
referenced within the server's configuration.
In the
Matrix Gnet Port
field, enter the
port number which connects to the server.
disable Surr. Pan
This control input disables the Surround Pan parameters on the Channel and Central Modules –
LCR, front-rear, Center slope and LFE level. This can be used to simplify operation for a stereo
installation. Note that 5.1 panning is only available if 5.1 or 5.1+2 Sums are configured.
Access
This control input will action the fader access key for the source. For example, to action an access
key from a GPI.
Mono
Available on stereo sources only. This control input monos the source.
ms -> xy
Available on stereo sources only. This control input converts an ms input to xy.
Stereo
Available on stereo sources only. This control input resets the source to stereo.
Left -> Both
Available on stereo sources only. This control input routes the Left audio input to both sides of the
source.
Right -> Both
Available on stereo sources only. This control input routes the Right audio input to both sides of the
source.
Side Swap
Available on stereo sources only. This control input reverses the Left and Right audio inputs at the
input to the source.
Phase
Available on mono and stereo sources only This control input reverses the phase of the source.
Start Mic AutoGain
Cycle
Available on microphone input sources only. This control input starts the
measurement
process.
The following control outputs appear in the ‘Tree Selection’ under “Logic -> GroupName -> SourceName”.
Access active
Active if the
ACCESS
Key on the source fader strip is active.
OAC ready
On Air Control ready. This control output may be used by an external Radio Automation System.
Channel On
Active when the ‘Channel Mute’ is inactive.
Channel Mute
Active when the ‘Channel Mute’ is active.
Channel Audio
Active when the source is "on air" - this occurs when the fader is open AND the channel is ON. (i.e.
Channel Mute inactive).
Assigned
Active when a source is assigned to a fader strip.
Phase
Active when the source is phase reversed.
Mono
(stereo sources only). Active when the source is in mono.
The remaining source parameter tabs are described later. See
