8.8.6 - CUE Channel
With the DriveRack system's Cue Channel capability it is possible to mirror the Graphic
(not Parametric) EQ settings of other DriveRack units to a channel dedicated to the
monitor engineer's cue wedge. When Cue Channel is enabled, it continually echoes
the 31 Graphic EQ levels of the current channel on the 480R DriveRack to the CUE
channel unit and input respectively. When a channel is recalled on the 480R, the Pre-
crossover Graphic EQ setting for that channel is echoed to the cue wedge, so the mon-
itor engineer is better able to adjust the sound for the musician on stage. If Cue
Channel is disabled on the 480R, the DriveRack's Graphic EQ setting will not be applied
to the cue wedge.
Connect the output of the selected unit's input channel (cue channel) to the amplifier
being used to power the speaker facing the monitor engineer.
Please refer to the diagram on the previous page.
• Enable Cue Channel by using the CUE Channel Setup on page 6 of the 480R util-
ity menu. Note: The CUE channel must be used in conjunction with MIDI AFL
commands.
• The Parameter 1 knob is used to turn the CUE channel option on, and select
which mode CUE channel is operating in. Mode 1 activates CUE channel EQ
when the CUE channel is selected. Mode 2 turns off the CUE channel's EQ when
the CUE channel is selected.
• The Parameter 2 knob selects the CUE channel's unit ID. The Parameter 3 knob
selects the input used for the CUE channel.
8.8.7 - Miscellaneous
• Page 7 of the 480R Utility menu, offers the ability to control display contrast.
• Page 7 of the utility menu also offers the Hotkey normal/Hotkey locked option.
If the parameter is set to Hotkey Locked, new Hot Keys can still be assigned, but
new HotKeys cannot be assigned over previously stored Hot Keys. If the para-
meter is set to Hotkey normal, then previous Hotkey assignments can be over-
written.
