Other Argo Panels
MY6574 Monitor panels these provide
the Argo S/Argo Q full control of the
various monitoring outputs of the console.
Generally one of these panels is fitted per
console, although more than one can be
fitted for multi- user/monitor operation.
The 20 x 4 button cells across the top
provides fast monitor source selection
and the large rotary control and buttons in
the centre of the panel is used to provide
control for the Main control room monitors.
To its left & right are 12 rotary encoders
which can be configured to control and
display various other monitor outputs and
a XLR talkback mic connector is provided.
IU6577 Short Fader panels these provide
additional fader control interfaces which
can be fitted in the same space as a Wild
Assign panel, for the Argo S, one row of
this panel type can be fitted and for the
larger Argo Q, two rows of this panel type
can be fitted to make up the required
console layout. These increase the
number of available access paths without
increasing the width of the surface and
can also be used to provide dedicated spill
control for Surround or Immersive paths.
Basic System Tests
A very basic test, can be applied using a
Tone source from the internal oscillator,
which is applied to the input channel in
place of an audio input signal, routing it
to an output bus and adjusting the input
and output levels whilst listening to the
resultant levels. The user should setup
a simple monitoring output to speakers
or headphones, using the IO patching
function to connect the monitor outputs to
the audio outputs in an I/O box where the
resultant audio should appear.
The basic end to end system test is
where the user applies an audio signal
to an Input port on an I/O box, which
is then converted into a digital signal
and connected to a Transmitter being
sent from the I/O box into a Receiver
in the Impulse core using the Connect
application which is used to configure
Transmitters & Receivers to and from the
Impulse core and the I/O box audio ports.
In order to control the various parameters
of that received input signal, it needs to be
placed on to a path on the console.

Paths of various signal widths are created
in the Fader layout function and using the
IO patching function, the received audio is
patched from the Impulse Receiver to the
input of the created channel path.
The channel path is accessed from the
Console surface or Assist application and
the input applied is adjusted and made
available for signal conditioning in the
Processing mode using Input gain control,
equalisation, dynamics delay etc. ready to
be routed into an output Bus.
The Routing mode allows the user to
route the currently accessed path to the
desired output bus to be mixed together
with other input signals ready to be
output.
The overall output levels of the mixed
input signals are adjusted in the Buses
mode and are then available to be sent
out of the system.
The resultant output signals are sent via
a Transmitter from the Impulse core into
a Receiver in the I/O box, using the IO
patching function. The links to the I/O box
audio ports from TX & RX having already
been made in the Connect application.
The Monitor mode allows the user to
listen to what is being sent out of the
various monitor outputs in multiple listen
modes to quality check the bus outputs
and by using PFL & AFL, to listen to the
signal at various intermediate points in the
signal flow from input to output.
Once the user has completed these
basic tests then they should refer to the
'Further Reading' section at the back
of this guide for more information on the
operation of the system. See
