Hi Slammin,

Please contact your dealer or A&H distributor (Audio Technica) for a warranty repair. We will follow up with them through our quality team and investigate the fault.

The TCP MIDI driver is superseded by DAW Control. DAW Control now has a ‘MIDI Thru’ map which replicates the functionality of the TCP MIDI driver.

1. Avantis mix : for Ipad ?
Yes, a MixPad app will be available with V1.0.

2. one mix : for Ipad / Iphone / Android ?
A OneMix iPad app for personal monitoring will be available with V1.0. No iPhone or Android version in the works, but we will review later. As much as we would like to offer a multi-platform phone app, it wasn’t…[Read more]

It might sound confusing, but it works, and it gives dLive a lot of flexibility, for example when a different strip layout is required on a second Surface or on a laptop running Director.
If you copy and transfer your Show file like you would do with any other desk, then everything will be recalled and you shouldn’t worry about where the…[Read more]

Hi Brad,
You can set crossfade times for each Scene, and the fade will include the panning / 5.1 positioning.
You can use Embedded Recalls to automate Scenes.
You can use Scene Filters to block all parameters other than pan for the desired channel.
So for example, Scene 1 has a crossfade time of 2s and an Embedded Recall set to recall Scene 2…[Read more]

Shows are only stored in the Surface or Director. Never in the MixRack.
Scenes for the current Show are stored partly in the MixRack (processing, routing, patch and most other settings) and partly in the Surface or Director (strip layout, Soft Rotary assignments, dimmer levels and MIDI strips). Current settings are also stored in the MixRack /…[Read more]

Hi ThatComplicatedMidiGuy,

We don’t support connection of a Surface to a MixRack via a gigaACE card in the Surface. And we don’t support redundant connection to a C Class Surface.

The problem is not so much clocking (in fact the Surface always relies on the MixRack clock, you can only choose sync options for the MixRack) but the fact that the…[Read more]

Check that LR is routed to the PAFL system in Surface / Audio / PAFL ‘Mains to PAFL’.

Steffen is right in saying that cross-vendor interoperability is still an issue for AVB. In fact, I’ll go further in saying that there is no such thing as an ‘AVB protocol’. The AVB set of standards regards primarily hardware, and doesn’t dictate on what protocol to use. Most pro audio companies claiming to use AVB are in fact using a Layer 2…[Read more]

Hi Gregg,

Our engineers are still working on porting the existing library of FX from dLive.
SMR reverb, GatedVerb, ST Delay, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Symphonic, ADT, Dimension Chorus, De-esser are all confirmed for V1.0.
Bucket Brigade and Echo should also make it.
Hypabass, Transient Controller are likely to follow in V1.1 subject to test.
Pitch…[Read more]

@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]
