Every Mix has a GEQ and a 4-band PEQ, you can set the lowest band on the PEQ to high pass mode, The default range is 20-200Hz, if you need it to go higher than that select the full range EQ option on outputs via the pull up tab.

There is a document ‘Understanding Waves Soundgrid” on the main site:
https://www.allen-heath.com/UK/Products/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?CatId=iLiveSeries&ProductId=MWAVES&SubCatId=AudioNetworkingOptions#tabset-tab-4

with the full Waves Soundgrid setup you can record / playback with or without Waves processing.

The shelving filters are 12dB/octave

The channel meter, and the meter on the preamp page are is always in the digital signal path (and thus affected by trim) whether you opt for ‘show preamp’ or ‘show trim’ on surface. That choice is simply for what the channel strip pot is connected to.

If you are not using a surface you can also use the ‘Surface’ port-A ACE port on the iDR48 to connect up to the ME-1 stations. you may have to jig around a bit with the mapping [ME channels start at ACE#21] but it works. Could save you waiting for ME-U and another Dante card!

You can use a Matrix to route Aux1 and Aux2 to a socket

Hi there!

1.question
Is it possible, for example, to route AUX1 to the output socket 1 on the AR2412 rack and route as well AUX2 to the same output socket?

2.question
Can i route AUX 1 to output socket 1 on AR2412 and as well to an XLR output socket on the back of the console?

I’m pretty sure that it will work.. but i don’t have access yet to check it at my console!

P.S. Refered to my dealer… today i should recieve my Qu-16! Wohooo!

You dont need to be using wedges or IEMs to use the PAFL on fader feature:
simply drag the IEM fader onto a convenient spot on the surface in the setup strip window. Then go to the PAFL tab and select ‘IEM MIX TO HEADPHONES’. now when you PFL/AFL a channel, that fader will control the level coming out of the cans together with a handy MUTE key! plus the phones rotary near the screen is still a master final level.
you could FREEZE this fader in layers so you dont lose it.

If possible I’d like to be able to PAFL stuff but only have it come out of the headphones if I want it to. The signal would still go to the PAFL bus but the bus could be muted.

I think what I really want is a set of those AKG’s that mute themselves when you take them off your head. [:p]

I have the softkeys set up as sel/mix/pafl WDG 1 – 4, sel/mix/pafl FX 1-4, tap tempo, mix LR. I’m sure I could free one up if needed.

Thanks xjcsa – these are good and realistic suggestions (some of which are already climbing up the wish-list chart in A&H software HQ!).

I know some others have posted feature requests here, and my list may include some duplication, but I wanted to get these thoughts out there. I’m currently using a GLD with AR2412 and a single AR84, and have been talking up the GLD as a pretty amazing mixer & value to anyone who asks – I’ve been thrilled with it for our use so far.

Anyway here are my suggestions:

1. For the Delay FX engines, display delay time in BPM rather than milliseconds. Several other manufacturers do it; it makes much more sense for music applications since the band is usually synced to click measured in BPM. Bonus points: round it to the nearest 1 BPM (i.e. tapping at 77.38 BPM rounds to 77 BPM). If there’s not enough DSP, I’d be happy to sacrifice one of the other FX units to make it happen (reducing my available FX from 8 to 7, for example).

2. Also for the Delay FX, make delay times above 1,360 ms available. There are frequent times when I really want more delay than that. 2 seconds would be sufficient for any of my needs; really 1.5 or 1.6 seconds would probably cover me, but 1.36 seconds doesn’t quite do the job.

3. It would be really nice to be able to create additional stereo channels – even if this was part of the “basic” mixer configuration (along with choices like LR, LCR, etc). I don’t really need it for stereo stage inputs like keyboards, but I usually run more than 2 channels of playback; it would be nice to have them for USB playback, iPod input, and video input, for example. For now I’m just using ganging, which works, but isn’t the same.

4. The ability to assign a softkey to be a “play” or “record” control for USB audio, without having to go to the USB audio screen would be fantastic.

5. It would be really nice for the “speaker-management”-like FX unit available in the iLive to also be available in the GLD.

6. The long shot: a “GLD-112” with 8 extra faders would be extremely welcome, and I would probably buy 2 of them very quickly; instead we’re weighing possibly buying one iLive T112 now and perhaps another down the road, but the GLD offers some features we really like, most notably the ability to use Aviom and Dante simultaneously without kludging something together or spending a ton of extra money to go the modular route.

Anyway, thanks to A&H for a great product, and for continued improvements!

Another useful function of the green SEL keys is when using COPY/PASTE/RESET of a particular processing section or a whole channel. What about a user option / preference on press and hold of the SEL key; could either bring up the audio monitor at that point or force the sceen to the processing view as its clear the operator is wanting to work with that section in detail?

I find it irritating that the green “select” buttons in the channel strip section (i.e. head amp, eq, gate, compressor etc.) only have an effect if the screen is in processing mode.

Since the only function of those select buttons is to put the respective section on the screen for more detailed contol, I don’t see the rationale behind having to switch manually to “processing” mode before these buttons take effect.

The screen should automatically switch to processing whenever any green select button in the channel strip section is pressed, and display the respective control screen. Extra points for remembering the previous screen and restoring it when the same green select button is pressed again.

First-time users in particular will find the overall discoverability of the desk much improved if these friendly green buttons will _always_ work as expected – think trade show tinkering

If I don’t care about local audio in/out at the surface can I use a standard network connection between mix rack and surface? I’d like to use the ACE port an an iDR-16 to connect it to another iDR over ACE for a FoH/Recording split. I don’t need local in/out on the surface for the iDR-16 so I’d like to just connect it via the network port. Possible?

You can connect a surface to a MixRack using network-to-network cat5.
You will get metering and control but as Lieven says, no audio (local i/o or PAFL). If your MixRack is close to your surface you could plug your phones into that instead (or run a long cable?).
You don’t say what your second (record) iDR is doing? has it got a surface? or if it has ACE in port-B. The system is designed to split signals between MixRacks port-B to port-B 64 channels bi-directional. Port-A is designed for the surface i/o connection and includes PAFL and TB. however 30 channels are still available to send to another ACE device. The second MixRack could receive 30 channels from your iDR16 port-A ACE BUT only via an ACE card fitted to its port-B (you cannot take external sync from port-A).

That should change the status for the whole mix.

Yes, I use that shortcut all the time, my point is that I have to do it every time I set a mono channel to stereo, or a stereo channel to mono, and that is annoying, especially if you are running 10 AUX outputs.
It has bit me a few times when I am only using 4 AUX for a show, and then the next week pull up a few more and those are still set to POST for a couple channels because they weren’t exposed on the board last week when I made a stereo change. I then start a sound check assuming everything is good and don’t find out till part way into it that a couple AUX with a couple channels are set POST because I didn’t see them last week and the board defaulted that way.

I would much rather be able to tell the console “hey, I am always wanting my AUX outputs to default to PRE when you reset a channel.”

You should save a scene Before you make any adjustments to Stereo Input configuration [all mixes have to be reset as you are building a new mixer]. Change the input stereos then recall the scene restoring all your mix attributes.

Make sure that in Dante Controller under device view that the brklyn module is set as slave to external word clock.

(Hopefully I have that the right way round – I’m not in front of the console at the moment, but either way try changing that value!!)

Also, the Brooklyn module in the A&H should be set as the only ‘Preferred Master’

The ‘return’ path is not an input channel – the XLR socket simply gets used as an insert return via patch-bay to the main L-R. no preamp gain controls!.
you do have a widget to change operating level between +4dBU and -10dBV.

please do not adjust your set; normal service will be resumed as soon as possible!

[Leon BigEars A&HModerator]

You can do this on the processing screen: select Main L-R, touch the INSERT tab, and set up the send / return on the surface XLRs IN/OUT x2, and press apply. the outboard compressor can be bypassed if you need to on the INSERT section of the LR mix on screen.
