10. Open the Output Masters window, and mute or unmute each output as desired to verify
signal at each loudspeaker.
Using Wild Tracks as a Signal Source
For installations where it is impractical to connect an external audio signal for loudspeaker
testing, you may choose to use Wild Tracks as a signal generator.
1. Open the Mixer Configuration window, and click on Frame 1. The modules for the first
Constellation processor will appear in the window.
2. Scroll down to locate the EtherTracks module. By default, it is set to EtherTracks (Master).
Click in the drop-down box and select EtherTracks w/8 Wild Tracks (Master). Take note
of the new channel numbers.
3. In the Configuration menu, select Send Configuration to Frames.
4. Open the Wild Tracks window. Click on Add Entry.
5. In the new entry, right-click on the word "Playback". Select Pink Noise.
6. Click the Play button (labeled with a green triangle).
7. Route the signal to the outputs using the technique listed in Routing Signal to Outputs (p. 28),
using the first Wild Tracks channel instead of a physical input channel.
Checking Signal on Microphone Inputs
To verify signal from each microphone, and to check for any signal interference, you will need
to listen to each input in turn using a PFL.
1. Locate an unused output channel on the Constellation processors. This will probably be the
last output channel on the lowest processor. Connect your headphone amp, SIM, or other
listening device to this output. Test that you can route signal to this output using the steps
listed in the previous section. Make note of the output channel number.
2. In the Mixer Configuration window, find the output channel number you are using. Input
channels have a green background, and output channels have a blue background. Click on
each frame in the list on the left to see its inputs and outputs.
