OK 

 
Instructs the crossover to feed way B from the output of way A, therefore cascading the 
two filters to obtain a higher slope or a more complex configuration than those achievable 
with a single way. 
 
Example 3: 
 
 

#SI,A,B 

 

OK 

 

#SI,B,P 

 

OK 

 

#SI,C,M 

 

OK 

 
Configures the 

MITCHELL

 to use the balanced input, feeding way B from way A output and 

way C from the balanced input (chosen by the first command of the sequence). By default, 
the crossover is configured to feed all three ways from the single-ended input. 
 
Example 4: 
 
 

#SI,A,P 

 

ERR 

 
The command returns ERR because the ”P” value doesn't apply to way A. 
 

8.1.3. Set Level (SL) 

 
As explained earlier, the 

MITCHELL

 has a gain/attenuation block on each way which allows 

for equalizing the emissions of the various driver used in the system. 
The command has four parameters: w indicates the way which will be affected by the 
command; c indicates the the channel affected by the command, a sets the attenuation 
and g sets the gain. The effective level is given by the following formula: 
 

Level(dB) = g/2-(a-16)/2 

 
Syntax: 
 
 

#SL

,w,c,a,g 

 
where: 

w = [A,B,C,G] 

  

 

c = [B,L,R] 

  

 

a = [00..FF] 

  

 

g = [00..3F] 

 
 
A,B,C,G indicates the way the command is applied to. G means “General” to indicate that 
all ways will be affected. 
B means “Both”.
