34.1. Matrix Management – A Three Step Process
It is important to realize that matrix management with the
T
ieline codecs is a
three step process. These three steps are as follows.
1. Set the cross point connections for your matrices within the
Matrix Editor
.
This is where you set the individual signal path routing for each mixer
function of a profile within the codec, i.e. cue and talkback functions and
the inputs.
2. Assign which matrix will be set to each mixer function listed within the
Matrix Map
menu and save the settings to a profile.
3. View and check your matrix settings within the
View Matrix
menu. This
allows you to view the overall mixer settings you have made within the
codec.
Step one above is described in detail in the section of this manual titled
Matrix
Editor
. A thorough knowledge of this is required before proceeding with matrix
mapping within the
Matrix Map
section of
Tool
Box.
A Cautionary Note:
It is strongly recommended that if you are using the
COMMANDER
G
3
for the
first time you should thoroughly read the
Matrix Editor
section within this manual
before attempting to set matrices with the
Matrix Map
menu.
Important Note on Matrices:
It is very important to note that
COMMANDER
G
3
rack unit matrices and
profiles are different to field unit matrices and profiles.
If you are connecting a
COMMANDER
G
3
field unit to a rack unit codec and
you are not using manual default profiles, you will need to create separate
profiles and matrices for each codec using the correct
Matrix Editor
for each
codec. To do this you will need to add a new configured device, i.e. a rack unit
codec as well as a field unit codec, to the
Configured Devices menu in Tool
Box
.
Once you have added a rack unit codec to the menu you can then select the
Matrix Editor
for it and amend, create and save matrices to a profile as required.
For more information on the field unit
Matrix Editor
, please consult the
COMMANDER
G
3 Field Unit reference manual.
(Please note that matrices for the TLR300 are different to the TLR300B rack unit
codec matrices).
