priority channels to their previous gain after the priority channel signal has fallen below threshold
and
the
hold time has elapsed.
Hold Time
is a time property that is adjusted using the green dial of the ducker configuration window, or by
entering the time (in seconds) in the textbox. Hold time is the time that the ducker will hold attenuation of
non-priority channels after the priority channel signal has fallen below the threshold. This time allows for
pauses between spoken words or audio tracks on the priority channel. Increase this time if non-priority
signals are momentarily cutting through the priority channel during brief pauses in audio.

Output Configuration Block
The Output Configuration block configures the display properties of
a local output and the RS-232 volume control. It can also be used to
reset the RS-232 levels to 0 dB attenuation, unmuted.
Display Name
is an editable textbox that accepts all alphanumeric
characters as well as a limited number of special characters. When
edited, the display name will update on the output label.
Reset:
Pressing this button resets the RS-232 settings on all
channels to 0 dB attenuation and unmuted.

Mixer Block
The mixer block allows the configuration and monitoring of the matrix mixer which mixes and routes input
signals and signal generators to the output busses. Any inputs (local or network) may be routed to any
output(s) at any desired level.
Mixer Matrix
consists of small
round buttons that route the input
signal on the left to the output
across the top. The inputs are on
the left-hand side of the matrix
while the outputs are listed across
the top. Muted crosspoints will
display as red while unmuted
crosspoints display as blue. When
a crosspoint is selected, a gain
slider window will open, allowing
the user to set the gain
(attenuation) for that input signal
appearing at the mixer output.
Signal Generators
are included on the input list in order to provide signals for testing purposes. The
generators include a sine wave and pink noise generated at 0dB. The frequency of the sine wave is fixed at
1kHz and is not adjustable.
