8.6 Auto Names and Stereo linking
Names
Channel names created at their source and
sent via the Cat5 cable can be detected and
used by the ME-1 mixer.
The ME-1 displays the received name in the
Key Setup screen. This is used as the
‘Default’ name. Alternatively, custom key
names can be created and stored in the ME-1
mixer.
Examples:
Bass
- If a name is available from the source
then the ME-1 will display this as the Default.
IP5
or
Aux2
– If a name has not been applied
or has been reset at the source then the ME-1
will display channel type and number.
Unused
– If the channel has been
unassigned at the source then the ME-1 will
display this label.
5
– If the auto name is not available then the
channel number will be displayed instead.
Stereo Links
Odd/even channels may be linked as stereo
pairs at their source before being sent via the
Cat5 cable to the ME-1.
This lets you assign a stereo linked pair to
just one key. For stereo pairs, Pan becomes
a Balance control to adjust the relative left
and right signal levels.
Only the odd (left) channel of a linked pair is
shown in the Key Assign and group Members
lists.
Stereo linked channel examples – Link
sources such as stereo keyboards, effects
returns, audience microphones.
