The Aux SEND LED indicators are displayed on the meterbridge,
and additionally in OLED DISPLAY1.
Pressing the AUX/MXM button in the LXE Surface GUI switches the screen to the
AUX and MIX MINUS MASTERS screen with four AUX MASTERS level controls
and ON buttons.
AUX Talkback
If your LXE surface is equipped with a second Studio Module, interrupt an Aux
bus signal with the surface’s predefined TB signal by pressing the AUX 1‑ 4 TB switch
located on Studio module below the Encoder. This allows the control surface operator
to communicate with the Talent or location receiving that Aux send.
Note that the talkback source, typically a host mic, must first be cross‑connected to
the surface’s TB input using either Navigator software or the LXE’s X/Y Router button.
The TB signal may be any source signal in the router including MXM or Aux busses.
The LXE’s TB input signal is a factory defined surface Destination signal with the name
LXETkBk.
MXM ASSIGN Buttons
These physical buttons are used to route input fader strips to MIX MINUS busses.
Press the SET button on any channel. If that channel is assigned to feed an MXM bus,
the corresponding MXM ASSIGN switch and OLED indicator on the fader strip will be
lit. Pressing an MXM ASSIGN switch will toggle that channel’s signal into or out of the
corresponding MXM bus. The Mix-Minus 1- 4 Assign buttons are just below the Level
control on the first Monitor module.
MXM Master Controls
Click the Aux/MixMinus Button on the LXE Surface GUI screen to bring up the
MIX MINUS MASTERS controls. Each MXM Master has a PRE‑FADER and PRE‑ON
switch as well as a virtual Level control.
PRE‑FADER – Normally any signal feeding a Mix Minus does so with a post‑fader
signal. Selecting the PRE FADER button for a given Mix‑Minus bus globally configures
the MXM bus to tap off the input strip audio before the fader.
PRE‑ON – Normally any signal feeding a mix‑minus does so with a post‑ON switch
signal. Selecting the PRE‑ON button for a given Mix‑Minus bus globally configures the
MXM bus to tap off the input strip audio before the channel ON switch.
Note: Mix Minus Invert and Follow Source functions have moved exclusively to the
LXE Surface Setup GUI. See the LXE Surface Setup GUI part of the manual for more
details.
