5.3
MultiModes
Each channel and aux on the StudioLive 16.0.2 USB features a
MultiMode button. These buttons allow you to solo or mute a
channel or aux, as well as engage the channel USB returns.
The function of these buttons is determined by the control buttons
directly to the left of the row of the MultiMode buttons.
5.3.1
USB Return Mode.
When USB Return mode is engaged, the MultiMode buttons on each channel
function as the USB Input buttons for each channel. This will route the hardcoded
playback stream from your audio software to the StudioLive’s channel inputs. Once a
USB return is engaged, it can be routed and processed the same way as analog input
signals.
For example, if you want a particular recorded track to play back on mixer channel
3, simply route that track in your audio software to StudioLive Output 3. This button
can also be used to insert a plug-in effect into the mix. For more information on this
feature,
please review the StudioLive 16.0.2 USB Software Library Reference Manual
.
While in USB Return mode, each MultiMode button that is enabled will illuminate
orange to alert you that the USB return is engaged for that channel.
Power User Tip:
When a USB return is engaged, the analog input is bypassed to the mix
bus. Because of this, do not engage a USB return when your StudioLive is not connected
and synced to a computer, as it will mute the analog input globally.
5.3.2
Solo Mode
When Solo mode is engaged, the MultiMode buttons on each channel function as
the Solo buttons for each channel and aux. When a MultiMode button is engaged
while in this mode, it will solo its channel to the main outputs or to the monitor
outputs, depending on whether PFL (Pre-Fader Listening), AFL (After Fader
Listening), or SIP (Solo In Place) is selected in the Solo bus section.
Please review
Section 5.6
for details.
While in Solo mode, each MultiMode button that is enabled will
illuminate yellow to alert you that the channel is soloed.
