Visibilities Tab
The third tab is the “Visibilities” tab. The settings available on this tab are used to limit
or control the choices that can be made for connecting sources to the local audio destinations
in the BLADE 3. The default settings of the WheatNet-IP system allow any source to be
connected to any destination, but there are some good reasons to restrict this capability in
specific places. A good sized system can have hundreds and hundreds of sources available.
To locate and select any particular one from the front panel control on a BLADE 3 might
involve a lot of scrolling! If you can limit the number of choices available it becomes less
confusing and much easier. In many cases it makes practical sense to restrict the source
choices. For example, if one of the destination outputs from a BLADE 3 is being used as
a headphone feed to a guest location in a talk studio for WXYZ, why would that guest
ever need to select the audition mix output of a production studio in WZZZ? Another good
reason for restrictions is that you might never want a connection such as the feed from your
processor to your air chain to be inadvertently changed. In many cases you can greatly
restrict the source choices available for a destination, sometimes even to as few as one. In
the WheatNet-IP system, we use the “visibilities” property to control these choices, and
it’s very easy to do. Essentially, we allow you to edit the list of names that are “visible” to
the user on a destination by destination basis, so that every audio output in the system can
