Integration of third party software
The XL8 Control Centre features a four-way KVM switch on the output module screen,
as well as external video IN and OUT for each of the five screens. Control centre views
can be routed to external monitors, and external video sources can be displayed on the
control centre's screens.
The KVM switch facilitates the control of three external computers from the screen,
trackball and keyboard of the control centre. This is hugely important and means that
third party systems can be controlled from within the XL8 without having to move your
head to look at screens placed off to one side. It also means that there is no need to
find somewhere to put multiple keyboards and mice. Examples are:
• ProTools. Right in the middle of the XL8! Link ProTools and XL8 audio digitally and
use any ProTools plug-in as an insert to the XL8!
• Netmax (AES/EBU audio link initially and Cobranet when the 48kHz I/O module is
available on XL8).
• IRIS (for example, for RL amps).
• KT Elgar (via Ethernet tunnel from FOH to stage).
• Wireless mic controllers.
• Your email.
• DVD movies.
