Hi teknik99

Glad to hear your excited about dual mixrack

1) you can link two racks together via port B and increase the number of inputs so a IDR48 linked to another IDR48 would give 96 input channels. The bus architecture remains at 32 but an IDR48 only has 24 outputs can 8 outputs from the second IDR48 be utilised to give 32 outputs?

---

Yes. The slave mixracks output sockets are free to assign as you wish so you can have access to all 32 mix outputs over both mixracks.

2) Can different mixracks be linked say an IDR48 with a IDR32 or IDR16 or a full Ilive IDR10 with a T IDR48 or do the racks need to be identical.

---

Yes. You can mix and match as much as you like, all iLive mixracks and Surfaces are compatible with each other even in dual mixrack mode.

Note: Surface audio can only be sourced from input DSP channels 1-64

Also note: Input DSP channels 1-64 have to be sourced from input sockets from the master mixrack. Input DSP channels 65- 128 have to be sourced from the Slave mixrack input sockets.

Let me know if you have anymore questions or ideas about dual mixrack

Hope this helps

Does this mean if we are using 2 x IDR48 that we use input sockets 1 – 48 on master and input socket 1 on Slave becomes channel 65?

---

Yes for control of all analogue pre-amps with 2 x iDR48’s you will need to use 1-48 for the master and 65-112 for the slave mixrack.

There is a way of tunneling audio between the mixracks so Input DSP channel 49-64 can be sourced from the slave mixrack input sockets but there is a limitaion. You will only have access to a digital trim control not the analogue gain.

There will be more information available soon about advanced applications for Dual mixrack setup.

Hope this helps

All the best

I’m pretty much new to iLive T… what will the Firmware 1.60 dual rack do for us?
