Offset Gain
Here you can enter a fixed analog offset gain for the input.
For Mic inputs, this is separate from the operator-controlled "mic" gain on the surface.
Matrix Enable
This option enables matrix control of the input. There are three options in the drop-down menu:
·
ON
– sets the input for “
” or “
” functions, or external matrix control
such as the MtxCon (NovaConnect) software.

output.
Line
Use this checkbox to choose Mic or Line level operation.
The mode changes the input impedance and also determines which controls become available
when the source is assigned to a control surface:
·
For Mic inputs, operators can adjust mic gain, 48V and a high-pass "rumble" filter.
·
For Line inputs, these parameters are not available.
48V
Select this checkbox to enable 48V phantom power permanently. For example, to apply 48V to a
talkback microphone.
