suggestion for the next update

quote:

+1 for this. I just had that tricky situation when keyboard player broke his cable (connector) during the show by kicking the DI-box and then loosing one channel.


honestly?

that´s why i never use a stereo channel for a stereo signal!

and even too, because if you root the signal to a mono monitor the signal can have mono incompatiblity!!!

always make a gang and link sensfull parameters.

I’m with self-made on that - at least with the ganged channel option all you need to do is return the ‘pan’ to centre… Come to think of it, that would be a nice feature for a future update - a ‘reverse’ pan gang which operates as a width control (i.e. the ganged channels ‘pan’ in opposite directions as opposed to following each other - perfect for the ‘width’ control requested above!). Ps is there a reason we’re limited to 8 ‘gangs’?

Yep - I don’t use stereo mix channels for stage inputs either for the same reasons as mentioned above (I only use them for digital sources such as SPDIF or music playback/ipod input etc) but the request for a width control by Whitcodj is still a valid request as it will make stereo channels more flexible (when/If you do use them!). Hey I like the idea of the reverse pan gang biggsounds!

yep NO stereo channels at all here (!) some of em (customers) come with outa balance digital sources (YES SIR-DANCE GROUPS E.T.C.)

AND: in the editor instead of pan knobs - sliders would make life easyer for “the touchscreenies” plus numerical fields for gain settings!!!

not really, i hope!

Actually, 1 thing that I do want in relation to ganging is being able to gang input gains (selectively of course, just another push button in the attributes screen) - am I missing something or is this not currently available? Seems like a pretty useful thing on stereo sources/keyboards etc

Any chance of making the GEQ’s on the outputs true 31 bands so we can get the very low (<63Hz) and very high(>16KHz), or at least extending the low end GEQ, this would be helpful in being able to tune the subwoofers. Thanks for the great product.

Thanks SelfMade, I found the “Input AFL” setting. that’s great.I might change back to mixing on DCAs again… maybe.

Just a thought - maybe ganging would be easier to access bu pressing and holding two SEL buttons, that could bring up the screen with attributes.

I second the GEQ suggestion above!

Also wonder whether we could have peak LED’s show for the A-D stage of the pre-amp? I managed to clip mine badly during a sermon over the weekend because the Pre was up too high with the subsequent Trim turned down. Thought first that the radio mic was over-saturating since there was no indication at the channel strip or any other metering that anything was wrong.

Some kind of Macro facility, especially for softkeys (see my thread elsewhere in this board) would be nice.

Also, did I miss something or are softkeys only programmable on a real control surface? Would love to have this ability, or to have it made more obvious that it’s there in the iLive Editor software if it is there already.

Otherwise, great job guys - keep up the good work!

Most of these topics have already been answered by 1.7. The HPF and LPF on Mains is an option under your Mixer Configuration. As is phase. On Editor you can use the Soft Key Simulation under your “Tools” menu.

I’ve tried the softkey sim but only some functions work… it would be great if all the softkey features cold be ported over (ESP the Mix/Sel/PAFL combo)

I’d love to see scrolling spectograph even instead of RTA. And a possibility to sign there f ex selected or cue channel / send. It’s very fast and precise tool especially working monitor feedbacks. Of course a soft key to bring it up fast and stop button.

iLiveT80 / iDr32

Yup - tried the softkey sim and found I can see and use the softkeys, but there appears to be no way to configure new functions to them. Maybe I missed something?

RE HPF/LPF… these are not entirely reliable yet. I think it’s every time I recall settings from a scene, that the LPF on my Sub mix (set to 100Hz) comes up as 2KHz. I then need to tweak it back down by hand. On one hand it’s no big deal, but on the other hand it should just work…

Are you sure that you do not have previous setting saved in a scene that are overwriting the current settings of the LPF?

We have not found this issue before, are you able to give me anymore information on how you recreate this bug? if so please send me a recreate procedure, so we can fix the issue ASAP

that´s not right!

there is no phase-option at the mixer configuration!

it´s possible to realise the lpf and hpf on output if you select the 20-20khz free filter option on the outputs.

Hey Sam

Thanks for this and other replies. I’ll check my setup when i start it up tomorrow and will let you know what I find.

My suggestion is about processing order.

I hope the processing order would be changed for individual input signal.

(ex.The order of PEQ and Comp could be change.)

My suggestion (which is in fact already implemented in hardware) is to be able to use white backlight color for strip LCDs. I’ve seen a damaged scene once, in which some strips were colored white and I must say it looks pretty neat. Additional color will be very helpful to colorcode strips.

With white color we’ll get all 8 possible RGB combination (including unlit one).

Second the white backlight!

Started IDR48 and t80 cold this morning and found Sub LPF set to 2KHz instead of 100Hz. Seemed that recalling show or scene loaded this correctly. I’ll start a separate thread as and when I get more info.
