iLive Module options – Analogue inputs and outputs MIC/LINE Input part M-MICIN-A
This is the main audio input module for the iLive system. It
provides 8x high performance analogue input preamps for
microphone and line level signals. The front end gain, pad
and phantom power are remote controlled via the network
connection from the Surface or PC. The settings may be
recalled as part of the iLive system memories.
CHK Yellow indicator follows the PAFL function. It lights
when the channel it is associated with is currently being
PAFL’d at the surface or PC. This provides a quick way to
identify which sockets are mapped to the channels, for
example when the FOH engineer wants to indicate to the
stage tech which connection to check.
Note: CHK will light when the preamp is the main channel
source, insert return or mix external input for the channel
being PAFL’d. For example, 4 may be lit if you PAFL a
stereo input channel which has an insert assigned.
PP Lights when phantom power voltage is detected at the
XLR input socket. This will light whether the voltage is
sourced internally from within the MixRack, or externally via
the cable plugged in.
INPUT XLR Balanced audio input with wide gain range
accepting signals from -65dBu to +30dBu. Gain is remote
controlled and has a 1dB resolution and range of 80dB
including 25dB pad. The preamps feed the iLive mix engine
through 24bit, low noise, low latency converters. The preamp
gain is automatically set for +4dBu or -10dBV operating level
if assigned as an insert.
DUAL MIC/LINE Input part M-DUALIN-A
An 8 channel input module to connect up to 16 microphone
or line level signals. As described above but with remote
controlled selection between two inputs A or B per channel.
Connection is via screw terminal Phoenix plugs (supplied),
ideal for installed applications or where external stage boxes
are used. The green indicator lights when the B input is
selected.
LINE Output part M-LINEOUT-A
8x Balanced line level outputs operating at +4dBu and with
+22dBu maximum output. Any signal whether a mix output,
direct output, insert send or MixRack input may be assigned
to any socket.
CHK Lights when the socket is associated with a channel
currently being PAFL’d, whether an output or insert send.
MUTE A red LED lights when the output is muted.
Note: The line outputs are relay switched to protect
speaker systems from power on/off thumps.
