    AoIP. The mixIT is powered by the JET67 Audio Engine. The JET-67 is where all of the audio and network connections are made. It also delivers power to the audio console. We designed the JET67 to have sufficient inputs and outputs to connect most studio equipment for the room based on fader size.

    KTRU, the pair decided they could design a better one themselves and the company was born. In the late 1990s, Logitek was the first North American company to offer a router-based digital console. Its first virtual PC-based console was introduced in 1999. By 2009, the company had pivoted to television, offering both physical and virtual consoles that seamlessly interface to production workflow automation systems.

    • A computer running Windows 10 • An Ethernet adapter to connect your computer to the JET67 • JetStream Server, available at https://logitek.link/XXXXXXX • A web browser, such as Chrome, Internet Explorer, or Microsoft Edge. Firefox is not supported. Connecting the Console to the JET-67 Audio Engine Using the supplied standard CAT-5 cable, plug one end into the RJ-45 port on the back of the JET-67 and the other end into the RJ-45 port on the back of the console.
  • Page 9: Audio Connections Overview

    The JET67 works best with balanced audio. If you have an unbalanced input, we recommend jumpering negative to ground. Unlike a traditional audio console, the mixIT controls an audio router. Therefore, you’ll notice there isn’t an output that’s labeled “program” or “monitor.” You decide where you want to wire your inputs and outputs and then configure everything in the software.

    The configuration will remain in memory on the JET67 even if power is disconnected. You can save the configuration in a JET67 to an .XLS file and keep it backed up and you can restore that .XLS file to the JET67 using JetStream Server.

    At Logitek, our solution to this dilemma was to identify the three biggest AoIP systems on the market, license them, and then create an internal channel guide that searches for all three and builds a list in the JET67 of what’s available on the network.

  • Page 37: Console Operation

    Console Operation The mixIT is very easy to use. The console uses touchscreens to select sources and bus assignments and knobs and buttons to adjust levels and turn faders on and off. This gives the operator the best of both worlds: simple menus and fewer buttons while still allowing someone to operate the board on air by feel without looking at where their hands are going.

    As with changing the route, tap the name of the source over the fader you wish to change. Tap P (Program), 1 (Aux 1), 2 (Aux 2), or 3 (Aux 3) to assign the fader to the mix bus. When you have made your selections, tap “Done.” Logitek mixIT Audio Console System/JET67 Manual...
