We don’t have a dLive yet, but everything I’ve seen tells me that the answer to your question is no.
There is too much that is different between the 2 systems.
You should be able though to re-create your show files using the dLive editor before you install your system is you have a solid understanding of the configuration that is going to be setup. That way you can hit the ground running.2020/07/24 at 11:50 pm #93644Ok, yeah, I don’t think that will be possible anytime soon. To do that you would need to be able to identify each specific ME-1(individually addressed).
With the ME-1 currently being a “one-way” device with no feedback communication to the console, downloading a config file to it won’t work.
A&H would have to redesign the whole ME communication protocol(very, very unlikely to be backward compatible either), and I don’t imagine it is on their radar.2020/07/16 at 10:40 pm #93430I’d be curious to know what he wants to change, we(I) make changes thru the ME-U web interface when needed.
We cant/don’t use the auto mode with iLive Dual rack system setup.2020/06/12 at 9:26 am #92535We use Aux sends for our different feeds. Be it live stream, or other outputs that require different mix than house mains.
2020/03/26 at 9:33 am #90499Need a little more information here…..
What protocol are you using, what software have you installed and how have you configured both the PC and the Dlive interface.2020/03/12 at 10:22 pm #90250I guess my 1st question would be, how old and what quality are your cables…
2020/03/06 at 11:48 am #90055I’ll be the 1st admit I’m not 100% familiar with the QU design, however, I would think that A&H would keep a similar signal chain design as the larger systems.
If you have your direct out source point selected as Post Delay, you would hear any/all EQ changes you make. My understanding is that “post delay” is completely at the end of the signal processing chain just before it goes to the fader.
If you want a totally dry signal for the ME system, I’d suggest you select ‘Post Pre-amp’ as that is as dry/un-effected/un-processed as you can get. Only changes to the pre-amp level would be heard in the ME system, any other downstream signal changes would not be heard in the ME system.
The ME-1’s do have a limited EQ in them that each user can tweek to their preference if they choose, however, the EQ in the ME only effects the master output of the ME, not per individual channels.2020/03/05 at 11:46 am #90032We aren’t on dLive yet, but if they added channel names to the library recall options, we would definitely utilize it.
Would be nice to see it on the older iLive while we are still using it, but I know that won’t happen.2020/03/02 at 11:43 pm #89966As far as scenes and show file storage, this is my understanding of the dLive operation:
Scenes are loaded to/recalled from/used within the mix racks.
Show files are stored in the surface…. when saved from the surface control.
Show files are stored in the PC/MAC….. when saved with the PC/director software.When using a PC/MAC with director you can’t access/see saved show files located on the surface so you cannot recall them.
When a show file is recalled from a surface, the scenes are loaded to the mix racks and then become available and accessible to the PC/MAC with director connection and can be recalled/edited/etc…You could recall your show from the surface, then save it on your PC/MAC with director as a backup copy. Another backup option would be to use a usb thumb drive as backup storage.
Personally I wouldn’t try and recall scenes from multiple locations during the same show, as mentioned above, the scenes are shared by all control connections. If you are worried about what is saved/recalled, set your recall filtering accordingly to try and avoid those issues.2020/02/18 at 12:18 am #89643Just don’t forget that your Dante signals will still be subjected to any gain settings/changes for FOH.
2020/02/13 at 10:43 pm #89549So have you considered just using a computer with the editor program in the remote room to control the aux mix.
We can do the same thing with our “simulcast” overflow room when needed.Otherwise you are going to do a digital split, and buy a some more hardware. Others can chime in on exactly what you would need to accomplish it with the dLive environment.
2020/02/12 at 11:15 am #89515So I did some more reading, as I’m the FOH guy, not the ME-1 user on stage…. scratch what I said about the ME-1. It only has a single 3 band EQ on it’s output, not per input channel. Adjusting it would be no different than adjusting the output EQ of your current AUX channel… sorry if I misled you.
I can experiment more with the EQ insert option, if you are only talking about a couple of channels, it shouldn’t be too difficult, but there is limited space in the virtual FX rack. Less if you are using any other FX generators for your house mix.
2020/02/12 at 3:03 am #89504From the sounds of it, what you are really wanting to do, would be easier to do with a more advanced IEM system(like the 40ch ME-1) as it does provide for individual channel EQ adjustment(basic LMH blending) and mixing totally separate from the house mix/eq settings.
Doing EQ with an insert can be challenging as what you set in the “insert eq” for the purpose of the AUX IE signal, would have to be changed(undone) in the house EQ section for the remaining house mix. Not saying it can’t be done, just that it is a bit more involved.
2020/02/12 at 12:34 am #89501That sounds correct.
The Aux will be using the individual “dry” signals. You do have the option of adding “EQ” to the Aux channel as a whole, just not the individual inputs to it.
If you need actual EQ processing on the individual signals separate from the mains, you will have to setup some kind of an “insert” on the individual channel then select “post-inst ret” as your Aux channel signal pick point.If you are wanting to only adjust signal level for the mains mix processing, set your main pre-amp gain as needed for the IEM/AUX, then use the “digital trim” to then adjust signal level used for the remaining house mix processing only.
2020/02/11 at 11:43 am #89484The routing screen is where you make the change for the source options.
Your “pre-eq” options are going to be listed as “post-preamp”, “post-hpf”, “post-gate”, “post-inst ret”.
Those will be your only options to aquire the signal before any EQ processing. -
