ɤ

 Control CPU

A computer connected to the network accesses the web
application to control the channel levels and processing.

ɥ

 Network Switch

The network switch provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) to the
ANIUSB, while also supporting all other Dante-enabled audio
equipment.

Connecting a USB Device

The USB port connects the host computer to the entire room audio system, including
microphones and loudspeakers.

When the ANIUSB-MATRIX is connected for the first time, the computer recognizes it as a
USB audio device. You may need to select it as the input/output (recording/playback)
device to pass audio. Assign the ANIUSB-MATRIX as the default device to ensure it passes
audio every time it is plugged in. Refer to the manual for your computer to configure the
audio settings.

Adapter Compatibility

This device is compatible with USB-B to USB-C adapters. Using an adapter is only
recommended for desktop and laptop computers, as many mobile devices do not support
bi-directional audio through USB or lightning ports.

Routing Audio Channels Through the USB Port

Audio channel routing is managed through Dante Controller software and the matrix mixer
in the ANIUSB-MATRIX web application.

Step one: Dante Controller

1.  Open Dante Controller and route Dante-enabled devices (such as Microflex

®

Advance

™

and Microflex Wireless microphones) to the ANIUSB-MATRIX Dante receive channels.
Name the channels in the ANIUSB-MATRIX web application to keep track of devices.

2.  If the ANIUSB-MATRIX needs to send channels to Dante-enabled devices (such as an

amplifier, loudspeaker, or recording device on the network), route the ANIUSB-
MATRIX Dante transmit channels to the appropriate receiving devices in Dante
Controller.

Step two: matrix mixer

1.  Open the matrix mixer section in the ANIUSB-MATRIX web application to route Dante

and analog channels through the USB port.

2.  Assign the USB Input channel (far-end audio) to the appropriate outputs. If recording

a meeting, be sure to route the near end microphones in addition to the USB input to
the recording device.

Note: Refer to the matrix mixer topic for additional information and signal routing examples.

Encryption

Audio is encrypted with the Advanced Encryption Standard ( AES -256), as specified by
