4081 User Manual | Issue 2 |
Standalone Control Setup – PC
The software is launched from Windows Start Menu / Programs / 4081 Remote Mic
(Also at this location is the User Manual plus the option to uninstall).
As the software opens, it automatically detects the presence of connected racks and shows at the bottom of the screen how many racks have been detected.
Once the control software is running, a small Neve icon will appear in the Windows taskbar.
This will either be displayed in green if the MIDI is running, or in red if it is not.
As shown left, four racks have been detected, yet it is the settings for the first rack that are currently displayed (the icons for the other 3 racks are greyed out).
Select the rack you wish to display the settings for by clicking on the icon underneath Rack1, Rack 2 etc.
The screen will be updated with any changes made through the modules’ front panels, and likewise, the units front panels will be updated with any changes made on screen.
>The Gain can be set by selecting the Gain value from the pulldown menu (if this value is out of range, the selection will remain unchanged).
The Gain value for Mic and Gain value for Line will be remembered for each, so that swapping between the Mic/Line selection will show the correct gain value.
>The Phantom, Pad, Phase, Impedance, Mic/Line selection and Insert can all be set by clicking on the appropriate button
The icons at the bottom of the screen indicate how many remote racks are connected.
The rack indicated by the red outline is the one currently controlled from (and displayed on) the upper part of the screen.
>To select another rack, click on it's icon and the red outline will move to indicate that the screen is now displaying parameters for that rack.
You cannot select any unit that is currently displayed as being Offline.
