p16 out
The ROUTING screen’s p16 out tab allows the user to route various console signal
paths to the rear panel P16 ULTRANET output. This output allows for 16 channels
of audio to be sent, in digital form, to various accessories such as a personal
monitoring distribution box.
Using the p16 out routing screen, the user can con gure the P16 output to carry
not only the main LR mix, but also various audio ‘stems’ of audio material sources
from a bus send mix, such as a stereo drum mix, stereo keyboards, guitars,
bass, vocals, etc. Musicians on stage would then be free to each craft their own
personal mix of these musical stems, all delivered from the FOH position to stage
over a single Ethernet cable.
To select which audio signals are sent to the P16 bus, perform the
following steps:
1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select for which of the 16 channels in
the P16 bus you wish to select an audio source.
2. Adjust the third encoder to select a category of audio source to send to
the currently selected P16 channel. These categories include:
• • Insert
• • Main (LRC)
• • Mix Bus
• • Matrix
• • Direct Out
3. Monitor.Adjust the fourth encoder to select which speci c signal path to
feed to the currently selected P16 output. Choices include:
• • O
• • Main L
• • Main R
• • Main C/M
• • Any of the 16 Mix Outputs
• • Any of the six Matrix Outputs
• • Any of the 32 Direct Outputs
• • Any of the eight Auxiliary Outputs
• • Any of the FX Direct Outputs
• • Monitor L
• • Monitor R
• • Talkback.
4. Tap the fourth encoder to assign the selected output path, completing
the process.
5. Adjust the fth encoder to select the signal tap point for the output
assignment. This determines where in the audio signal path the source
is ‘tapped’ as it is sent to the P16 output. The available signal tap
points include:
• • IN/LC
• • IN/LC +M
• • PreEQ
• • PreEQ +M
• • PostEQ
• • PostEQ +M
• • PreFdr
• • PreFdr +M
• • Post Fader.
6. Tap the fth encoder to complete the signal tap point assignment.
card out
The ROUTING screen’s card out tab allows the user to patch various signal paths
to the physical inputs and outputs on the DN32-USB card. The card’s signal path
provides 32 channels of inputs and 32 channels of outputs. The 32 card inputs can
be used as alternative sources for the two input fader layers, switchable in banks
of eight.
To assign an output path to the option card, perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select an 8-channel signal path that will
be sent to the rst eight channels of the card. Choices include:
• • Local 1-8 • • AES50-B 25-32
• • Local 9-16 • • AES50-B 33-40
• • Local 17-24 • • AES50-B 41-48
• • Local 25-32 • • Card 1-8
• • AES50-A 1-8 • • Card 9-16
• • AES50-A 9-16 • • Card 17-24
• • AES50-A 17-24 • • Card 25-32
• • AES50-A 25-32 • • Out 1-8
• • AES50-A 33-40 • • Out 9-16
• • AES50-A 41-48 • • P16 1-8
• • AES50-B 1-8 • • P16 9-16
• • AES50-B 9-16 • • Aux 1-6/Mon.
• • AES50-B 17-24
2. Tap the rst encoder to assign the selected output path, completing the
process.
3. Repeat the process with encoders 2-4 to select output paths for the
other 24 channels or card outputs.
aes50-a / aes50-b
The ROUTING screens aes50-a and aes50-b tabs allow the user to patch
various console output paths to the outputs of the dual AES50 connectors.
These connectors can feed other AES50-equipped devices, such as a digital stage
box or standalone multi-track recorder.
The M32 contains two separate AES50 connectors, labelled A and B. These dual
connectors allow for an increased level of exibility in networking the console to
various AES50-based equipment.
Each of the two AES50 tabs contains the same following sets of parameters
that can be adjusted. To assign various console signal paths to the AES50
connectors, perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select an 8-channel signal path that
will be sent to the rst eight channels of the AES50 connector’s output.
Choices include:
• • Local 1-8 • • AES50-B 25-32
• • Local 9-16 • • AES50-B 33-40
• • Local 17-24 • • AES50-B 41-48
• • Local 25-32 • • Card 1-8
• • AES50-A 1-8 • • Card 9-16
• • AES50-A 9-16 • • Card 17-24
• • AES50-A 17-24 • • Card 25-32
• • AES50-A 25-32 • • Out 1-8
• • AES50-A 33-40 • • Out 9-16
• • AES50-A 41-48 • • P16 1-8
• • AES50-B 1-8 • • P16 9-16
• • AES50-B 9-16 • • Aux 1-6/Mon.
• • AES50-B 17-24
2. Tap the rst encoder to connect the currently selected signal path to the
AES50 pathway.
3. Repeat the above process for the other ve sets of 8-channel AES50
outputs.
The aes50-b tab works exactly the same as the aes50-a tab, but instead selects
sources sent to the output of the console’s AES50-B connector.
xlr out
The ROUTING screen’s xlr out tab, much like the out 1-16 tab, allows the user to
patch the M32’s various internal signal paths to the 16 analogue XLR outputs that
are located on the console’s rear panel. This tab, however, allows the XLR outputs
to be patched in blocks of four, rather than individually. Also, on this screen it is
only possible to route the signal to its absolute destination, rather than choosing
the signal path. The available destinations will di er depending on the block
selected. Destinations include:
Block 1-4 / Block 9-12 Block 5-8 / Block 13-16
