Routing AVB Sends to Your Console Mixers
For brevity, this section will only show the basic routing from the first input to
the NSB 8.8 to a console mixer. Channels from the NSB 16.8, the StudioLive 24R,
and the StudioLive 24 at Front-of-House are routed in the same manner. The
StudioLive 24 used for Broadcast should be configured exactly the same way
as the StudioLive 24 at Front-of-House.
More information on NSB-series stage
box features and functions can be found in the NSB-series Owners Manual.
AVB Streams must be routed in banks of eight. The channels
within these streams are patched as follows:
•
NSB-series.
NSB-series inputs are patched one-to-one to their AVB Sends
(Input 1 is patched to AVB Send 1, Input 9 is patched to AVB Send 9, etc.).
•
StudioLive Mixers.
By default, mixer inputs are also patched one-
to-one to their AVB Sends. However, mixer inputs can be freely
routed to any destination via the Digital Patching menu.
Patching StudioLive 24 (FOH) Inputs to Their AVB Sends
Before we begin patching AVB Sends to the console mixer, we must first patch
the analog inputs we want available to the network from the StudioLive 24 at
Front-of-House to the AVB Sends we’d like to use (AVB Sends 1-8, in this case).
1. From the StudioLive 24 at Front-of-House, open the Digital Patching screen and
press the AVB Sends tab.
For more information on Digital Patching, please
review the StudioLive Series III Owners Manual.
2. In the Inputs column, press AVB 1.
3. Select the Available Source column and use the value encoder to scroll to Aux In
1L.
Repeat Steps 1-3 to patch Aux 1R and the Talkback
In to AVB Sends 2 and 3 respectively.
Power User Tip:
While our example doesn’t require this, it is important to note
that using Digital Patching in the manner described above can be done for
StudioLive rack mixers as well using the Digital Patching menu in UC Surface.
