Channel Processing Block
Due to its compact size, the smaller iLive surfaces do not provide all the physical controls. Access these parameters using the TouchScreen.
*Processing SEL keys
Access the Preamp, EQ and dynamics
Press a strip SEL key. Press the key again to turn it off or press another to access a different channel.
*You can press and hold any SEL key in the Processing Block to temporarily send it to the PAFL system to listen to and meter the signal at that point in the signal path.
The Channel Processing Block displays the current settings for that channel. Controls illuminate if available.
The TouchScreen provides an alternative graphical view and access to the input and insert patching, delay setting and changing the name and colour. Touch the screen to open the different processing views. Touch Return to return to the main page.
Note - To view the processing parameters on the screen make sure all the screen keys are turned off. The SEL keys will not access the processing if you leave the screen in NAME/COLOUR, MIXRACK or SURFACE .
The PREAMP screen lets you patch the Source to the DSP channel, control the remote analogue mic preamp, adjust channel Trim and Polarity, set name and colour, and adjust the HPF (high pass filter).
Choose to present either the preamp controls (Gain, Pad, 48V, Polarity) or trim controls (Trim, Polarity) on the Surface PREAMP section. This lets both FOH and Monitor engineers work with their own independent trim controls once the Gain has been set. All channels may be globally set to present either the Preamp or Trim controls from the MIXRACK SETUP / Mixer Pref screen. Once set, individual channels may be changed from within their PREAMP screen
GEQ on faders
Press a mix master SEL key to access the processing for that master. The GEQ is controlled from the screen or on the faders by pressing the Surface GEQ FADER FLIP key. Press the key to toggle between screen and fader control.
In GEQ on faders mode - The EQ frequencies are indicated on the strip LCDs above. The strip meters display the RTA (PAFL signal if one is selected). The red PK meters display the dominant frequency if this option has been set in the SURFACE / Preferences screen.
The fader on the right becomes the master or currently active send level for the mix. Hold down ALT VIEW to display the EQ dB settings on the strip LCDs. Press the strip SEL keys to reset individual frequency bands to 0dB.
