Automix
Automix feature simplifies mixing activities in the presence of many guests in the studio.
The function adds, to the existing sources, a new source called Automix, which is the sum of all enabled microphones.
The Automix source has all the features of a microphone source such as:
Studio/Control Room loudspeakers control
Studio/Control Room light control
Can be used as audio in Private mode for phone calls
Using this new source, the user can manage in a very simple manner all the microphones of the studio with a series of benefits:
Just 1 fader for the management of studio microphones;
A dedicated AGC section for each microphone input automatically adjusts the correct level;
Automatic management of attenuation on microphones not in use, simulating a slight closure of the fader;
Final compressor that allows an automatic leveling of the Automix source;
Possibility to use the microphones individually.
This feature further simplifies the work of the mixer engineer, even in the case he/she is also the host of the show.
Available settings in the Automix menu:
MIC-1 ON/OFF
MIC-2 ON/OFF
MIC-3 ON/OFF
MIC-4 ON/OFF (only for consoles with 5 Mic)
