ME-500 Channel Setting

Hello!
My church is using 2 ME-500 connected to QU-32. I have 2 questions:

  1. I’m doing routing through I/O patch setting, but it always causes some problem. For example, now channel 11 in ME-500 is not making any sound for any channel no matter what channel I patched in I/O setting. It seems channel 11 is not going to work anymore. Somtimes, channels are mixing around themselves while I/O says the same. Mic #1 is set up for channel 1, for example, but weeks after, it becomes another channel in ME-500 while I/O setting stays the same. What should I do to stop this madness and make everything available with no issues any more?

2)We ahve 2 ME-500, but I’m wondering if we can split them into 2 different channels. It seems impossible, but only daisy chains are available according to QU-32 I/O patch setting screen as I don’t have 2 different I/O patch options, but only one. But I’m just curious! Thank you very much!!!

Hi Jakie,

  1. ME-500 takes the first 16 mono OR stereo inputs from the Qu Monitor patch. Is it possible that Scenes are recalled with a different patch, or changes made to Input Linking? Either of these can cause the ME-500 patch to change. You might also want to check your Direct Out level in case that’s been turned down.

  2. All ME-500s will get the same patch from the Qu-32. The ME-1 model would allow each musician to select different channels (from 40 shared sources) but the patch on ME-500 is fixed.
