p16 out

The 

ROUTING

 screen’s 

p16 out 

tab allows the user to route various console signal 

paths to the rear panel P16 ULTRANET output. This output allows for 16 channels 

of audio to be sent, in digital form, to various accessories such as a personal 

monitoring distribution box.
Using the

 p16 out

 routing screen, the user can configure the P16 output to carry 

not only the main LR mix, but also various audio ‘stems’ of audio material sources 

from a bus send mix, such as a stereo drum mix, stereo keyboards, guitars, 

bass, vocals, etc. Musicians on stage would then be free to each craft their own 

personal mix of these musical stems, all delivered from  the FOH position to stage 

over a single Ethernet cable.

To select which audio signals are sent to the P16 bus, perform the 

following steps:
1.  Adjust the first push encoder to select for which of the 16 channels in 

the P16 bus you wish to select an audio source.

2.  Adjust the third encoder to select a category of audio source to send to 

the currently selected P16 channel. These categories include:

• 

Insert

• 

Main (LRC)

• 

Mix Bus

• 

Matrix

• 

Direct Out

3.  Monitor.Adjust the fourth encoder to select which specific signal path to 

feed to the currently selected P16 output. Choices include:

• 

Off

• 

Main L

• 

Main R

• 

Main C/M

• 

Any of the 16 Mix Outputs

• 

Any of the six Matrix Outputs

• 

Any of the 32 Direct Outputs

• 

Any of the eight Auxiliary Outputs

• 

Any of the FX Direct Outputs

• 

Monitor L

• 

Monitor R

• 

Talkback.

4.  Tap the fourth encoder to assign the selected output path, completing 

the process.

5.  Adjust the fifth encoder to select the signal tap point for the output 

assignment. This determines where in the audio signal path the source 

is ‘tapped’ as it is sent to the P16 output. The available signal tap 

points include:

• 

IN/LC

• 

IN/LC +M

• 

PreEQ

• 

PreEQ +M

• 

PostEQ

• 

M

• 

PreFdr

• 

M

• 

Post Fader.

6.  Tap the fifth encoder to complete the signal tap point assignment.

card out

The 

ROUTING

 screen’s 

card out

 tab allows the user to patch various signal paths 

to the physical inputs and outputs on the DN32-USB card. The card’s signal path 

provides 32 channels of inputs and 32 channels of outputs. The 32 card inputs can 

be used as alternative sources for the two input fader layers, switchable in banks 

of eight.
