Direct Outputs
iLive input channels provide Direct Outputs which can be patched to any physical output socket or audio network channel in the system.
Note - Do not use 'Direct Outputs' for digital mic splitting via Port B as these also follow the Preamp Trim control. Use 'MixRack' Inputs instead. These take the signal just after the analogue preamp.
Surface - Adjust Direct Out level:
Press a channel SEL key and use the Surface ROUTING / Direct OUT screen to access the Direct Out level trim for that input channel. The source to the output is displayed.
Global Direct Out source option:
Use Surface MIXRACK / Mixer Pref / Preferences screen or Editor Setup menu / Mixer Pref window to set which point in the channel signal path feeds the Direct Outputs. This is a global setting which affects all input channels.
Use the drop down menu to select signal source:
Use the Follow Fader and Follow Mute buttons to choose whether the outputs are affected by (follow) the mutes and faders. This is similar to the pre/post setting on an analogue console but much more flexible in that the source point does not have to be the same as that feeding the channel faders. For example, you could configure 'post-mute' pre-EQ outputs.
