BTW these instructions are for an airport extreme router, I do not have an express and it’s possible that you can’t change it with that one. You can with the extreme.

You can certainly change the IP address on the router. Use the Apple Airport Utility, selected the router you want to configure, click on manual configuration, then, at the top of the box, there is a button labelled “internet.” Click on that one and you should be on a screen that will let you enter whatever IP you want to use. Mine at home is set up for 192.168.1.30, configured using this method.

Probably exactly what I DIDN’T do. Thanks for the help

Did that. The show file is present but the scene I need is missing. I am more and more beginning to think that it was never saved despite telling the surface to do so. I was able to log into a command shell via the USB port this morning, but had no idea of where to look for backup or temp files that might be resurrected, so spent the morning and early afternoon recreating. The lack of save could be related to an admin user with password being in place, but trying to save from a regular user, even with all permissions in place. Oh well, most of it is back in place so this begins to get moot. Thanks for the thought.

I sent you an email with more detail, but the first thing I would check is to see if your individual channels are routed to a DCA or a group send (or both). Same thing with the cd inputs, they could be routed to an aux send to drive your monitor speakers and a DCA to control the level in the mains. Use the ROUTING button and select the channel to look at routing. The DCA’s and group sends may well be down a layer or two and you are not seeing them immediately.

A&H is a class act. Similar experience with a mild malfunction, everything has worked flawlessly since then. What a great company!

iLive doesn’t have a DHCP server built in, so you need to change your ethernet address to something that is in the same subnet. I think A&H recommends using 192.168.1.10 for an external computer, subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Easy to make the change on a Mac, just open up network preferences and enter a manual address. XP computers are fairly easy as well, Vista and Windows 7 hide stuff and make changing addresses much harder.

Another solution would be to connect a router, either wired or wireless, to your iLive, set it up with the address noted above, and don’t allow its DHCP server to assign addresses below 192.168.1.100. You should be able to connect to the router, get an address automatically, and then network with the iLive setup. Per the manual:

MixRack address defaults to 192.168.1.1 Sub mask 255.255.255.0 Surface to 192.168.1.2 TouchScreen to 192.168.1.3
We recommend you set:
Laptop 192.168.1.10 Sub mask 255.255.255.0 Router 192.168.1.245

Good luck!

I’ve had a T112/IDR48 combo since fall of 2009, and am very satisfied. Our company does a variety of show types including orchestra, choral, and musical theater, just finished “The Music Man” with lots of wireless mikes, and the system ran flawlessly (aside from the operator making some mistakes, grin). The CAT5 connectivity was a big selling point, as was the human engineering that A&H uses. An easy desk to learn the basics, does take some time to learn it all.

Customer support from A&H is unparalleled. They are responsive and interested in keeping you as a customer after the sale. My T112 lost the first 8 electronic scribble strips early on. I got a personal call from A&H’s national sales manager, and a replacement within a couple of days. That’s service.

I, too, had difficulties in finding a case, but finally had one made from specs by Crown Case Company in Charlotte, NC. Joe does nice work with reasonable prices, and can build anything you want. Not quickly, mind you, seems to be pretty busy, but the end result was excellent.

I think the T series boards are the best kept secret in the industry, head and shoulders above the LS9, as good as or better than the MC7 at a better price, probably the most reasonably priced system for the features out there. Good job A&H, I love my iLive.

There is a nice ap for the iPhone that will analyze all wireless networks it hears and graph the channel results, could be most helpful in selecting a clear channel. The ap is WiFi Analyzer and is US$1.99 at the ap store. Works very nicely.

I think the issue was, in fact, not recalling the correct surface when loading in a default scene. I did a recall last night, loaded the T112 scene, and was able to do that assignments, per Doug’s comment. Bob, indeed, became my auntie.

The inputs were not showing up on the touch screen in the output section, which oddly enough is where they are found in the editor. Doug’s explanation led me right to them and they assigned properly using the touchscreen on the surface

However, I still question why the editor program appears to ignore the c inputs. Perhaps I have told it that the surface was a T80 in error.

I’ll go back and have a closer look at that later this evening.

And once again, many thanks for the comments. This is a great desk, already turning heads in my area, where it is the only one to be seen that I know of.

Thanks Doug for the tutorial, works as advertised. I assigned both the c and the a RCA jacks using the touch screen, and both worked fine. Thanks very much for your help.

Thanks for the responses, I’ll try the setup suggested and see what happens.

I finally did do what you suggested, Graham, and found the inputs starting around fader 50. What I was trying to do, as this was a very small show, was get several mike inputs on layer A plus the two stereo feeds assigned to channels that were already on layer A, rather than all the way down in layer D. All the controls would have been under one hand rather than swapping back and forth between layers.

I guess, in the default T112 layout, assigning all of them above the highest rack channel available for mike inputs on the mix rack, in this case above 48, makes sense, but not what I wanted to do for this particular event. We ran only 3 mikes but had two stereo mixes, so having them on the same layer would be easier to navigate. I eventually got the A inputs moved where I wanted them using the laptop.

But the issue was that the input sockets were not to be found using the touch screen interface. When I try the method that Doug has suggested, I will have learned where they live so I can patch them wherever I want them, either to a stereo pair or to a pair of mono input channels.

The other issue is not being able to assign the C inputs using Editor version 1.51, the A inputs could be dragged to the appropriate fader but not the C inputs.

Is that any clearer?

Same problem here with Mac mini. Have not loaded Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro due to advisory from Rational Acoustics that SMAART doesn’t seem to be compatible with the update, so not a problem here either. Perhaps it will get fixed in 1.52

Thanks for the responses. There was a post on the theater sound list this afternoon to the effect that the delay problem was no longer, which makes me a lot happier! Also good to know that Chris had input to the MIDI controls, I use his software and have always been impressed with his knowledge.

I hope to own a T112 after the first of the year.
