M-ACE MODULE
An optional ACE card is available to link iLive and/or GLD systems together. Typically this may be desired for front of house / monitor
systems where digital splits of the mic preamps in system A are sent over a Cat5 cable to system B, where independent trim, EQ, pro-
cessing, FX, and mix-bus structure can be used for the stage musician’s foldback.
M-ACE gives access to 64 input and 64 output channels and can be
fitted to:
 Port B expansion slot in iLive fixed format MixRacks (iDR-16,
iDR-32, iDR-48 & iDR-64) or expander (xDR-16)
 Port B and/or Port A of iLive modular MixRacks (iDR0, iDR10) if
fitted with the RAB-2 standard.
 Port A of iLive modular Surfaces 80/112/144/176 if they are
fitted with the new RAB-2 standard.
 I/O Module slot in GLD-80.
The M-ACE option module can be fitted easily; it is installed (front-mounted) with the power off, and has two screws to secure it in place.
Two ACE links are provided offering a ‘zero-packet loss’ changeover in a two-cable system.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES
64 channel digital split

and mix signals to be made available to the other system over a Cat5 cable. A
second cable can be used for redundancy.
