Can I add to that?

Could it also be a foot-switch option? I’d love to use it with both hands free on the desk.

I don’t use protools, but I assume it works in much the same way as other DAWs….

With the appropriate drivers installed on your computer, I guess you’ll then choose your SQ as the input device (and probably output too) from the protools preferences, then for each channel you want to record, you’ll be able to choose which SQ output it needs to…[Read more]

Maybe, for point 1, the SQ4You app could save the setup in a small library of it’s own? Recall this, & sent all new levels to the desk Anything not under the app’s normal control would be unaffected.

Doesn’t get around the fact that a different musician may be louder/quieter or have a very different sound, but would go some way to helping solve…[Read more]

“i know Dsnake can go through dmx cable”

I’m pretty sure it can’t.

I think you need another cable

“every recording has clicks and strange digital ailiasing every few moments.”

Me too. Tried 4 different drives now.

I’m planning to test an AR2412 against the SQ’s local inputs tomorrow, which should be much the same thing I think?. I’ll let you know what I find.

IIRC, an SQ can apparently “see” the DX32 box, but it’s not yet recommended to use it as it may not be 100% stable.

Even if somebody were to try 2 AR2412s and could see 40 channels, I’d not want to risk an unsupported configuration at a gig.

Does this help?

I know I’ve also seen a post from one of the A&H staff saying that 2 AR2412 is not possible (on one Slink port), but I can’t find it right now.

Just AR2412 racked & then put the AB168 next to the drum kit/whatever – can save a lot of cable?

That’s pretty much what Keith said.

For this purpose you need to be recording the unprocessed audio then process it when you play it back.
If you record it after processing, then apply the same processing again it will sound very different – all eq cuts & boosts will be doubled etc.

You’ve still got the direct acoustic sound from the stage,…[Read more]

This one?

Is the Alt Out unused on your desk?

You could route all the FX returns to a group, or a (stereo) mix and record that – depending on if you have one free.

Could you clarify your use of “to” and “from”?
Mic to line would need amplifying, not attenuating, so I’m not really sure what you’re wanting to do.

See pages 37 & 38 of the manual

“Choose the channel source for the Direct Outputs using the drop-down menu. Choose whether the outputs are affected by the faders and/or mutes. These are global settings affecting all channels.”

Thanks very much Sascha. That’s exactly the sort of answer I was after!

Thanks vey much Sascha. That’s exactly the sort of answer I was after!

No.

Maybe take a look at the Qu-PAC?
Gives you the option of controlling things from the front panel should your WiFi go down, which is reassuring, though I’ve never had to resort to that. Almost exactly the same set of inputs and outputs as the SB.

Then there’s the MixPad app for android tablets – not an A&H product, and I think you’d want to buy t…[Read more]
