Adjust EQ settings as needed. You can use EQ to improve speech intelligibility and minimize noise. If your EQ changes
cause a large increase or decrease in the level, adjust the levels as in step 1.
Automatic Coverage Off
In this mode, there are 2 sets of gain faders:
Channel gain (pre-gate)
: To adjust, go to Channels. These faders affect a channel's gain before it reaches the automixer
and therefore affect the automixer's gating decision. Boosting the gain here will make the lobe more sensitive to sound
sources and more likely to gate on. Lowering gain here makes the lobe less sensitive and less likely to gate on. If you're
only using direct outputs for each channel without the automixer, you only need to use these faders.
IntelliMix gain (post-gate)
: To adjust, go to IntelliMix. Alternatively, select a lobe in Coverage to see post-gate gain and
mute controls in the properties panel. These faders adjust a channel's gain after the lobe has gated on. Adjusting the gain
here will not affect the automixer's gating decision. Only use these faders to adjust the gain of a talker after you are satis
fied with the automixer's gating behavior.
Using Designer's Optimize Workflow
Designer's Optimize workflow speeds up the process of connecting systems with at least 1 microphone and 1 audio processor.
Optimize also creates mute control routes in rooms with MXA network mute buttons. When you select Optimize
in a room, De
signer does the following:
Creates audio routes and mute control routes
Adjusts audio settings
Turns on mute synchronization
Enables LED logic control for applicable devices
The settings are optimized for your particular combination of devices. You can customize settings further, but the Optimize
workflow gives you a good starting point.
After optimizing a room, you should check and adjust settings to fit your needs. These steps may include:
Deleting unnecessary routes.
Checking levels and adjusting gain.
Verifying that AEC reference signals are correctly routed.
Fine-tuning DSP blocks as needed.
Compatible devices:
MXA910
MXA920
MXA710
MXA310
P300
IntelliMix Room
ANIUSB-MATRIX
MXN5-C
MXA Network Mute Button
To use the Optimize workflow:
Place all relevant devices in a room.
Select Optimize. Designer optimizes microphone and DSP settings for your equipment combination.
