Setting the Gain Compensation function
If you are using an I/O device (such as an Rio3224-D) on a Dante network, you can maintain the
constant level of signal output to the audio network by using the Gain Compensation function. If the
FOH console and the monitoring console are sharing an I/O device, or if you are performing digital
recording via Dante connections, using this function will maintain the signal output at a constant level
from the I/O device to the network even if the analog gain value on the I/O device is changed.
To do so, follow the steps below:
1.
Sets the analog gain as described previously.
2.
Press one of the knobs in the SELECTED CHANNEL section.
The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen for the selected channel will appear.
3.
Press the GAIN field in the SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen.
The GAIN/PATCH popup window will appear.
4.
Press the GC button located to the right of the A. GAIN knob.
When the function is turned on, the button will light. Press the button once again to turn it off.
If you adjust the analog gain value while the Gain Compensation function is turned on, the head
amp level will change accordingly. However, the level of the signal output to the audio network
will automatically be corrected to the level obtained when you turned Gain Compensation on. If
you turn Gain Compensation off while in this state, the analog gain and the compensated gain
within the I/O device will return to the settings that were in effect when you turned Gain
Compensation on. Therefore, the signal level on the audio network will remain the same.
NOTE
Since the compensated gain is the gain used to automatically compensate the gain within the I/
O device, it is not shown as a parameter. The position at the moment this was turned on will be
displayed.
Adjusting the digital gain
If the Gain Compensation function is turned on, digital gain will be used to adjust the level of the signal
input to the CL's input channels.
Follow the steps below:
1.
Press the [SEL] key for the input channel that you want to control.
2.
Press one of the knobs in the SELECTED CHANNEL section.
The SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen for the selected channel will appear.
3.
Press the GAIN field.
The GAIN/PATCH popup window will appear.
4.
Use multifunction knob 8 to adjust the D. GAIN parameter.
NOTE
• Press the SETUP button, then the USER SETUP button, select the PREFERENCE tab, and then
set the GAIN KNOB FUNCTION to DIGITAL GAIN. You will be able to adjust the digital gain value
by using the GAIN knob on the corresponding channel strip or the GAIN knob in the SELECTED
CHANNEL section.
• You can also operate the digital gain by assigning INPUT GAIN → DIGITAL GAIN to a USER
DEFINED knob, or by assigning an ALTERNATE function to a USER DEFINED key.
