Gating Group Select

In addition to specifying gating characteristics for each mic input, you can assign the inputs to a gating group for greater flexibility and control. When inputs are assigned to a gating group, the gating information from the inputs is used to control how the entire mixer behaves.

The PSR1212 features four internal gating groups (Internal 1–4) and four global gating groups across the expansion bus (Global A–D). Microphones can be used in only one gating group at a time. If an input is not assigned to a gating group, that mic’s gate properties are independent and have no effect on any other gating group. When gating groups span two or more units (global gating groups), the settings must be the same for each unit attached to the global gating group. Mic inputs are routed to Global Group A by default.

To assign a gating group

•Select the Internal or Global group the mic input will belong to or select None.

To configure gating group settings

1.Click the Gating Control button on the toolbar. This opens the Gating Controls window.

Figure 3.35. Gating Controls window

2.Select the Max # of Mics (default is 4).

This sets the maximum number of microphones that can be gated on at any one time within a gating group. For internal groups, the maximum number of mics can be from 1 to 8. For global groups the maximum number of mics will vary depending on how many mic inputs are assigned to the gating group (up to 64). You can also select All for the global groups—which means all mics could gate on.
