7. MLA Mini with additional CSX 218 subwoofers
As mentioned in option 6, CDD‐Live speakers can easily be integrated with MLA Mini systems. A practical example might be to
use a pair of CSX‐Live 218 subwoofers to extend the low frequency response of an MLA Mini system in larger venues. The MLA
Mini system is set up in the usual manner with a USB connection from the PC to the first MSX and a pair of U‐Net cables link the
two MSX creating a closed loop to provide redundancy.
An Ethernet connection runs from the same PC to an Ethernet router (note that the router must support DHCP) and then to the
first CSX‐Live 218 subwoofer and daisy‐chains over to the second sub using Ethernet Port 2 on the sub.
Analogue Audio is fed from the mixing console to left and right, connecting first to the CSX‐Live 218 then using the parallel out
to link to the input on the MSX Sub.
Vu‐Net is run on the PC to control the system, Device Discovery will find the two MLA Mini arrays and the two CDD‐Live 218's,
these can all be configured for the optimum parameters for a combined system, all from a single PC platform.
The only minor drawback with the configuration above is that you would not be able to configure the system for AES/EBU digital.
One option is to connect directly from a digital AES source to the MSX's and then route Dante digital to the CSX‐Live 218s over
the network cables already in place.
