Management of the M-48 live personal mixer
Management of the M-48 live personal mixer
The M-48 is a live personal mixer that allows each musician to create
their own monitor mix. By unifying the professional monitor mix
created by the mixing engineer with the personal mix created by
each musician, the M-48 provides a monitoring environment that’s
ideal for the musician.
fig.M48_Mix1.eps
The M-48 provides a REAC port that is able to receive up to 40
channels of digital audio via REAC. The digital audio sources are
mixed by the internal 40-channel mixer for monitoring via
headphones or monitor speakers.
fig.M48_Mix2.eps
The sources 1–40 being input via REAC are mixed by the M-48’s 40-
channel mixer. Settings and operation of the 40-channel mixer are
shared between the mixing engineer and the musician.
The 40 digital audio source channels being input via REAC to
the M-48 are referred to as sources 1–40.
Settings by the mixing engineer
These settings are made by the mixing engineer from the M-380 or
the PC.
1.
Source level and pan settings
These settings specify the LEVEL, PAN, and AUX switch
settings for sources 1–40 (p. 193).
2.
Source assign settings
These settings assign sources 1–40 to sixteen groups for
operation on the M-48 (p. 196).
Settings by the mixing engineer
These operations are performed by the musician on the M-48 unit.
3.
Group mix
VOLUME, PAN, REVERB SEND, and 3-BAND EQ can be
adjusted for each group created by the source assignment
settings.
The group mix can also be viewed and edited from the M-380 or
PC (p. 198).
fig.M48_OutDgm.eps
The M-48 provides two sets of output: PHONES and LINE OUT.
1.
PHONES
REVERB, AMBIENT MIC, and AUX IN are mixed into the
MAIN bus, then BASS, TREBLE, and LIMITER are applied to
the mix which is then output from these ports. This is used for
headphones or in-ear monitoring.
