Recording Equipment
Connect the USB output of the DMX8 USB Mixer directly to
USB 1
on the rear panel of the FTR
Touch unit - using the supplied USB cable.
Monitoring Equipment
The Monitor outputs on the DMX8 USB Mixer may be used for a range of different purposes
including telephone and/or video conferencing, public address via an amplifier and/or powered
speakers or for an analog audio feed for backup or other archival requirements.
Testing
Have another person speak into each microphone at normal to loud levels. Watch the
corresponding Input Level LED on the front panel of the DMX8 USB Mixer. As each microphone
is tested the LED should flash green. It is acceptable for the LED to flash red occasionally with
loud speech. If the microphones are placed close together the voice test should be accompanied by
a “scratch” test. Before speaking, lightly scratch each microphone and observe which LED on the
front panel lights. This ensures the correct microphone is being tested. If devices other than
microphones are connected to the inputs of the DMX8 USB Mixer, perform a similar test on these
devices.
The DMX 8 drivers are preinstalled on FTR Touch. However, the driver may need to be
configured in FTR Touch settings. See the
Configuring FTR Touch Recording Settings
in the next
section of this guide.
