I/O devices and external head amps This chapter explains how to use an I/O device or an external head amp that is connected to the QL series console. Before you proceed, use DANTE SETUP to specify the I/O devices that will be mounted. For details, refer to "Mounting an I/O device on the Dante audio network" on page 197. Using an I/O device QL series consoles enable you to remotely control channel parameters of an I/O device (such as an Rio series product) connected to the Dante connector. For details on connecting the QL series console to an I/O device, refer to the "Connecting to I/O devices" section in the separate Owner's Manual. I/O device patching Here's how an I/O device connected to the Dante connector can be patched to the Dante audio network. STEP 1. Connecting QL series consoles and I/O devices. For details, refer to the "Connecting to I/O devices" and "Quick Guide" sections in the separate Owner's Manual. 2. In the function access area, press the I/O DEVICE button. 3. Press the DANTE PATCH tab in the upper part of the I/O DEVICE screen. 4. Press the DANTE INPUT PATCH button in the I/O DEVICE screen (DANTE PATCH page). 5. Press the AUTO SETUP button. If you want to edit individual patches, press the port select button. 6. Press the device in the I/O DEVICE screen (DANTE PATCH page). 7. Press the port select button in the OUTPUT PATCH window. 8. In the PORT SELECT screen, select the output port.

I/O devices and external head amps

This chapter explains how to use an I/O device or an external head amp that is connected to

the QL series console. Before you proceed, use DANTE SETUP to specify the I/O devices

that will be mounted. For details, refer to “

Mounting an I/O device on the Dante audio network

”

page 197

Using an I/O device

QL series consoles enable you to remotely control channel parameters of an I/O device (such

as an Rio series product) connected to the Dante connector.

For details on connecting the QL series console to an I/O device, refer to the “Connecting to

I/O devices” section in the separate Owner’s Manual.

I/O device patching

Here’s how an I/O device connected to the Dante connector can be patched to the Dante

audio network.

I/O DEVICE screen (DANTE PATCH page)

I/O device list

This shows the ID number and model name of the I/O devices.

Press here to access the OUTPUT PATCH window, where you can specify patching from

the console’s output ports to the I/O devices. If a previously set-up device does not

currently exist on the DANTE audio network, a yellow “Virtual” indicator is shown at the

lower left of that device. If devices on the network belong to different DEVICE TYPEs but

share the same ID, a red “Conflict” indicator will appear to the left, below the device. If

multiple devices share the same ID, a yellow “Duplicate” indicator will appear to the

right, below the device.

DANTE SETUP button

Press this button to open the DANTE SETUP window, in which you can make settings

for the audio network.

DANTE INPUT PATCH button

Press this button to open the DANTE INPUT PATCH window, in which you can select the

64 channels (32 channels for the QL1) that will be input from the I/O device to the

console.

OUTPUT PORT SETUP button

Press this button to access the PATCH VIEW 1 tab of the OUTPUT PORT window, where

you can choose the 64 channels (32 channels for the QL1) that will be output from the

console’s output ports to I/O devices.

STEP

Connecting QL series consoles and I/O devices.

For details, refer to the “Connecting to I/O devices” and “Quick Guide” sections in the

separate Owner’s Manual.

In the function access area, press the I/O DEVICE button.

Press the DANTE PATCH tab in the upper part of the I/O DEVICE screen.

Press the DANTE INPUT PATCH button in the I/O DEVICE screen (DANTE PATCH

page).

Press the AUTO SETUP button.

If you want to edit individual patches, press the port select button.

Press the device in the I/O DEVICE screen (DANTE PATCH page).

Press the port select button in the OUTPUT PATCH window.

In the PORT SELECT screen, select the output port.
