Would it be/is it possible to make it so that you can assign a stereo channel from any point, even on an even input? i.e. 1-3 = mono, 4+5 stereo, 6-11 mono, 12-13 stereo, 14 mono, 15-18 stereo…etc

Also mp3 playback off a usb via the fx channels would be good.

I’d like to see a user preference to associate a press of the mix button to the select and or pafl keys.

Have a look at the Touchscreen PAFL page.

Thanks Walter, that does do what i’m looking for but if it were an option for PFL + Sel to follow the ‘Mix’ button it would be much more logical for mixing monitors.

You can do that with the Channel Ganging function if you just want a Link, the actual Stereo channel assignment is a DSP assignment, You can actually even gang channels on different layers if you want with the ganging feature Thats Cool!!

ganging is very cool – much better than stereo linking,
BUT i wonder (question to the team) how many gangings are possible?

There is a limit of 8 channels within a gang, and a total of 8 differnt sets of ganged chanels.

My point is more that I don’t want to waste the ganging on doing something that could be done in the mix rack configuration (Surely its just a modification to the mix rack page?)

Bear in mind that changing stereo configuration is a much more intensive task than adding or removing channels to a gang. There is a lot of reconfiguration as a result of a stereo change, and is thus not suitable to do live. Changing how input channels are stereoed to allow non contiguous pairs seems unlikely.

I just make it a habit in my show files before I leave out for a gig, to Max out all the DSP in the show file.

Weather or Not I use it, there is always a situation where I just need to “ADD the control strip to the surface”

I generally set my show up with

6 stereo inputs

then I have the combination of those phisical STEREO channels and the ganged channel possiblities.

What most people dont realize is the other digital companies out there when you do a stereo channel it is really just 2 linked channels.

NOT THE SAME

We will have different actors, moderators and referents with different mic’s
Most of them 1 or 2 times per month.

Im looking for a recall for a complete channel,
Including gain, gate, eq, compressor, limiter

A recall function for all parameters in the “select section” would be great.

Or Is there a other way? How can i “save” a complete channel to a library ?
I can’t use a scene, I only want to recall one channel.

1. select the channel you want
2. input library
3. store new
4. when you recall dont forget to activate “recall preamp”

upps, i think i was blind…
thank’s for the hint to the “input library” in the upper right corner…

A greater Midi implementation – in particular midi access to the channel Mix, PAFL and possibly the select keys. This would allow an external midi controller to access these buttons which would be great when only using the editor software and no surface. If the editor software could also directly interface with midi hardware attached to a laptop then the midi connections would not need to be made to the mixrack or surface which should keep the laptop wireless ability while also using a midi controller.

i have just started demoing out a iLivet112 with a iDR48 and a few things that i would like to see are:
1. A Mono+Sub Preset
2. Ability to assign a Aux, Matrix or Fx Send to the “Rotary Shift” function to be able to have
any one of those right there with the ease of that function.
3. Dual surface running of the same iDR for simple FOH and Monitor Split setups.

So far thats all that i can think of. I’ll be demoing this setup till monday so I’ll let you guys know if i have any ideas

‘ 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 ?

I like your idea. I was just thinking the same thing myself when looking at the big IDR48 pictures. The whole bank concept is nifty, but, sometimes, when pressure mounts and things are moving fast in a festival change-over or a troubleshooting under pressure scenario, it can be a bit confusing.

I can quickly do the “math” in my head to ensure I land in the right spot, but I like my current stage box that is clearly labelled 1-56, appropriately.

I like the bank option better for outputs. That grouping makes a bit more sense to me.
