must have their
option set.

Select this checkbox if the matrix input is stereo. Note that the address in the ‘Matrix Input’
field is that of the left channel.

will be routed to both left and right outputs.

frame).

EmBER+ Matrix Nr
When using

the matrix cross point is visible to other controllers such as the NovaConnect software,
setting Protect will prevent these controllers from changing their status.
