@Showtime Yes, the GLD MADI, Dante, Waves or ES V2 cards are supported via the M-DL-ADAPT.
@cheu78 DCA Spill is available in Avantis.
@BWright Side-chain capability – yes. DynEQ and MultiBD in the FX rack – no.
@xyz The touch information is not sent through MIDI. I suspect this will come up as a feature request 🙂

The bus architecture is configurable, like dLive. This means you can configure your Show file with any combination of up to 42 busses including Aux, Group, Matrix, Main, FX Send and PFL. Stereos count as two busses.
So for example, a Monitor show could be set to use 10 Mono Aux + 10 St Aux + 10 FX Send + PAFL.
A FoH show could be set to use 5 St…[Read more]

Yes, an offline editor is planned, but not for V1.0. Tentatively end of the year.

Hey Cheu,

Glad you like it. I know you’ve been waiting for something in this space.

1. Yes, there is an integrated LED bar, but this time in the armrest, projecting white / blue light over the faders for visibility of fader positions. Optionally Scene automated like on SQ / dLive.
2. Not at this stage (excuse the pun). I believe we have enough…[Read more]

Hi Mathias,

In dSnake mode, the SLink port on Avantis (like the SLink port on SQ) will support up to two AR/AB devices in a chain, specifically:
– An AR2412 or AB168 as the first device in the chain
– An AB168 or AR84 as the second device in the chain

This is a limitation of the dSnake protocol (which Avantis happens to support) rather than the mixer.

Fixed!

Hi Ash,

MixPad and Onemix need to be within the same major version, so V1.8X apps will run with any V1.8X firmware. In other words, no need to update the apps for V1.83.
However note that dLive Director has to match the exact firmware version, including maintenance release.

Yes each Surface / Director can only use one PAFL at a time, if I understood your question. But it’s quick and easy to change the PAFL number via the PAFL screen or via SoftKeys.
The other option you have is to assign channels or mixes to either the IEM or Wedge faders. These have separate outputs you can patch, but they are fed from the same PAFL…[Read more]

Hi Matt,
Make sure you have at least 2 PAFL buses configured in the MixRack / Config / Mixer Config menu.
On the C3500, go to Surface / Audio / PAFL and select PAFL Number 2. Any PAFL button on the C3500 will now control PAFL 2, and the C3500 headphone socket will output PAFL 2.
On the dLive Director system running monitors, go to Surface / Audio…[Read more]

@Mfk0815 see my post here: https://community.allen-heath.com/forums/topic/pafl-on-ip8-and-sel-fol-pafl-not-working/#post-63362
The workaround many came up with is to assign some of the IP8 SoftKeys to Scene Recalls which recall different IP8 assignments.
I wrote an article a while ago on this – should still be relevant:…[Read more]

@Mfk0815
In your MixRack Config, you can choose to have the Main bus on separate fader strips. This would give you separate processing for L and R. You can then gang the attributes you like e.g. faders, mutes, but keep the eq separate.

@devanbumstead

Check with Focusrite for recommendation on PC hardware. But generally speaking, use a dedicated SSD drive for multitrack recording (separate from the OS drive).
Personally I would avoid Logic. It’s notoriously taxing on resources with multitrack recording. Use Reaper / Tracks Live / Nuendo Live then move to Logic for editing if…[Read more]

Hi Ash,
Yes that’s correct. The use of user profiles with OneMix is simply to distinguish between Admin and user access. All users can share the same user profile.

There is no issue whatsoever with multiple users sharing the same user profile. The only limitation is the total number of TCP connections to the MixRack (40).
The reason multiple user profiles are required for the Custom Control ‘personal monitor’ example discussed here, is only because the design choice was to have a specific UI per user profile…[Read more]

Inspired by the work by ThatComplicatedMidiGuy, I thought it might be useful to provide a more generic example, so I created a Config with 8 Layouts, each assigned to a dLive User Profile (with default user names) and controlling a St Aux. Each Layout has tabs to access channels 1-64, with controls for send level and pan, assign on/off (can be…[Read more]

User Profiles are stored in the MixRack and are independent of Show files. You might want the operator to recall different Show files, but prevent them from updating firmware or changing network settings. Show management is itself a permission option of user profiles. So they have to be separate.
There is no mechanism at present for backing up…[Read more]

Zero is Zero

Not quite. As Fab points out above, you are looking at very different scales. Yamaha mixers display dBFS, same as your DAW or audio interface. So it’s normal you get the same 0 reading.
Meters on Allen & Heath mixers display an analogue scale, with 0dB = -18dBFS. Try measuring a Sig Gen sine wave output reading +18dB on the meters,…[Read more]

Check that the channel isn’t part of a ME group on another key, which would act like a DCA.
Also check the Direct Out level for the channel on your mixer, this is per channel so it is possible it was turned down unintentionally.

Hi tmdarlan,

I have seen this issue before but we don’t have a solid reproduce yet.
Can you try rebooting the MixRack and uploading the Custom Control Config again?
If that doesn’t work, open a ticket at support.allen-heath.com and we’ll look into it for you.
