INTRODUCTION
Thank you and congratulations for purchasing
myMix
, the first networked personal
mixer and multi-track recorder built for professionals.
myMix
has been designed with
two main goals: to enable musicians to hear their music the way they want to hear it
and to allow them to capture performances in multi-track recordings to optional SD or
SDHC cards.
myMix
puts each musician in control of his or her own sound, with an
intuitive user interface designed for creative people.
myMix
will forever change the
way you make music by taking the experience of creating music to new levels. This
owner's manual covers all basic information in a step by step process. Please take the
time and read it carefully.
myMix
is an audio mixing system that allows every user to create his or her own mix,
whether monitoring with headphones, ear plugs, or a speaker system. Each unit has
two combination mic/line inputs, balanced stereo outputs, and headphone jack.
Additional signals can be brought into the system using the IEX-16L, 16-channel line
level input expander. On every myMix the user can choose up to 16 channels á la carte
from all signals on the network for an individual mix.
A
myMix
system is different in that it doesn't require a master unit. The connection of
the individual units is accomplished using common Ethernet CAT5 cabling and a
100MBs Fast Ethernet switch (see chapter Switches for system using more than 16
audio channels). Once a unit is connected to the network, each input source (e.g.
microphone or instrument) can be available on all
myMix
units allowing a user to
create an individual mix without affecting others on the network.
myMix
can record up
to 18 tracks of multi-track audio to an optional SD or SDHC card. Two of those tracks
are reserved for a stereo track that is an exact copy of your individual mix, including all
effects, panning, volume and tone adjustments. The remaining tracks (up to 16) are
sourced directly, unaffected and ready to be imported into the recording software of
your choice. All audio files are recorded in 24-bit, 48 kHz time-stamped .wav files.
This manual also describes the new features since the original 1.23 release:
- Unlimited network channels
- Select audio channels from network à la carte
- Configuration of the IEX-16L input expander
- Play Along (play back tracks from SD card and mix with local inputs)
- Looping and locator points for play back and play along
- Send mix to network
- Detecting SD cards not compliant with SDA2.0
