Direct Outputs

I/O Configuration

10 - 10
[Automatic] - Assures that all lower faders have Cube inputs. This
mode is similar to L/U [n] except that it automatically enters the total
number lower faders in the console as [n]. Executing [Automatic] on
the console in the above example would look like this:
The next stage of system configuration is setting the channel DIR assign-
ments. Every Cube input must receive a post fader feed from the console. The
console DIR or "Direct" outputs provide this post fader feed.
Each channel has two configurable DIRs. Some Euphonix systems send only
the lower faders signal to the Cube. In these systems only DIR 1 is used. Other
systems send both the upper and lower fader signals to the Cube. These
systems use both DIR 1 and DIR 2. Lower faders typically feed the Cube via
DIR 1 and Upper faders via DIR 2.
DIR output options are:
MT bus output - Outputs bus of the same number as channel.
CMB - Combiner, see Tutorial section of Operations manual.
UFL/R - Upper fader left and right.
LFL/R - Lower fader Left and right.
The default selection for both DIRs is Bus. The selections used when feeding
the Cube are; DIR 1 from LFL/R and if the Cube is fed from both upper and
lower faders, DIR 2 from UFL/R.
Knowing how the inputs of your Cube are cabled to the console is necessary to
determine which DIRs to set. The assign template configured earlier gives you
this information. See the Tutorial section of the Operations manual for details
on DIR configuration.
Assign DIR1 to LFL & LFR and DIR2 to UFL & UFR.
The Cube I/O screen and menu is only applicable with the expanded "A/B"
type Cube systems. The A/B Cube is beyond the scope of this manual. See the
Cube technical manual for information on this.
