‘ real world input channel numbering ‘
This was an idea suggested by the house engineers at a London venue to another manufacturer of mixracks and surfaces and consequently included in a software upgrade.
Include analog style numbering of mixrack input channels.
Imagine the scenario , a patchmonkey is onstage , perhaps using analog sattelite boxes to the mixrack , or mixrack is located FOH with an analog multi. Patchmonkey yells across venue to FOH engineer ‘ Oi I am bumping 13 up to 26 for the support ‘ It is unlikely that habits will change and he is going to say ‘ excuse me the input for B5 is now in D3 ‘
Perhaps another window could be added to the input select screen , eg:
B / 7 / (15)
or
C / 3 / (19)
Anybody else like this idea ?
