Output Options

The optional settings in this section allow for customization.

Speaker Mix

: This option selects whether an output has the

Speaker Mix

or a

Free Mix

as set in the Routing Input section. The Speaker/Headphone

output is always in the

Speaker Mix

Solo/Mute

: This setting determines whether or not the outputs are affected

by solos and mutes. The Speaker/Headphone output is always affected by
solos and mutes. Note also, that all outputs in

Speaker Mix

mode also are

affected by solos and mutes.

Mute on Headphone Insertion

: This option controls whether the outputs

should be muted upon a headphone insertion. This setting can be adjusted
even for outputs whether they are in

Speaker Mix

Free Mix

modes.

Volume Control

: This setting determines whether each output pair is

adjusted by the

Volume Control

knob. Speaker/Headphone outputs are

always affected by the volume control knob, as are any outputs that are in

Speaker Mix

mode.

Typical Questions Regarding Output Routing

The questions and thoughts in this section are commonly asked by people when
setting up the licensed Output Routing capability.

What signal outputs can be controlled using the Output Routing
feature?

All the outputs on the iAM2-8 can be controlled using the Output Routing feature.
This includes – Internal Speakers, Analog XLR outputs, all 4 pairs of AES outputs on
HD-15, and AoIP Pair 9 and Pair 10.

How do the outputs behave if I do not purchase OPT-OUTPUT-
ROUTING license?

If Output routing license is not purchased, the outputs are configured as follows:

Speakers

: All monitored channels are always available on the internal

speakers. The left and right speaker assignment is determined by the

Speaker Assignment

. Audio on the speakers is controlled by the

Volume

and

Balance

knobs and is muted whenever a headphone is inserted into the

Headphone

jack.

Analog XLRs

: These outputs follow the same configuration as the internal

speakers. They are controlled by the

Volume

and

Balance

knobs and are

muted whenever a headphone is inserted into the

Headphone

jack. These

outputs also follow the solo/mute selections on the Audio Meter screen.
