Input/Output Matrix Router
- Any input can be routed to any or all outputs.
Click and drag from the input to output to assign routing. For faster routing of a single
input or output to multiple channels, highlight its node and then press Ctrl+Click over
the desired nodes to connect to. To delete a route or clear the matrix, right click on
the routing line or node. Also, right click anywhere in the matrix area to bring up a
menu of common routing choices.
Matrix Mixer and Auto Mixer
Input/Output Matrix Router
Matrix Mixer
nX amplifiers use a matrix-mixer to adjust the level of an input channel to one or more output channels, typically at unity gain.
Inputs must be routed to an output channel using the matrix router, then must be mixed using that output channel's matrix mixer,
either manually or using the automixer.
Matrix Mixer/Auto Mixer Controls and Indicators
Input Name - An editable text label for the user to identify the
name of the input signal. This is the same text label as shown
on the inputs in the DSP Controls window.
Route Enable checkbox - Selected to make the mixer input
signal connection. Checking or unchecking this box has the
same affect as dragging or deleting the signal routing lines in
the DSP controls window matrix mixer.
Mute Button - Mutes the input signal before the auto/manual
mixer. This does not light the front panel mute LED.
Auto Button - Selects the mixer input channel as an automixer
channel when pressed in, versus a manual mixer channel when
pressed-out. Manual and automixer channels both get summed
into the output mix, however the manual channels operate
independently and do not participate in the automatic mixing
operation.
Fader Control - Adjusts the mixer input level for an automatic
or manual mixer channel before any automatic mixing takes
place.
Level Meter - Displays the input signal level prior to the
fader control or automixing attenuation. This meter is a peak-
responding signal level meter.
Output Matrix Mixer
Duck Indicator - Displays when the input channel is being
ducked (attenuated) by the ducker function. This indicator is
only visible when ducking is enabled at the mixer.
Auto Meter - Displays the automixer's attenuation applied to the signal before mixer summing.
Channel Gain Value - Shows the total decibel gain applied to the input channel which is combined from the mixer fader control
and any remote level controls assigned to the matrix mixer. This gain value does not include the automixer gain value, and is
applied to the signal before the automixer.
Link Group - Allows multiple output mixers to be linked such that any control change made to one mixer will make an identi-
cal control change to any other mixer assigned to the same link group. The route enable control does not get linked however, in
order to maintain separate channel routing when controlling a stereo mix.
