51 X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual
7.5 Setup Screen
The setup screen oers various controls for global, high-level functions of
the console such as display adjustments, sample rates and synchronization,
usersettings, and network conguration.
The setup screen contains the following separate tabs:
1. Global: This screen oers adjustments for various global preferences of how
the console operates.
2. Cong: This screen oers adjustments for sample rates and synchronization,
as well as conguring high-level settings for signal path buses.
3. Remote: This screen oers dierent controls for setting up the
console as a control surface for various DAW recording software on a
connectedcomputer.
4. Network: This screen oers dierent controls for attaching the console to a
standard Ethernet network.
5. DCA Groups: This screen oers controls for various aspects of the console’s
DCA groups.
6. Card: This screen selects between the USB and FireWire connectors, and also
selects the input/output conguration.
None of the setup screen’s tabs contain a secondary level of encoder functions,
sothe Layer up/down keys do not need to be used for these screens.
7.5.1 Setup Screen: Global Tab:
The setup screen’s global tab allows the user to adjust various global controls of
the console, such as display brightness and contrast, the panning mode used by
channels, text languages, and more.
1. To make adjustments in the global screen, perform the following steps:
2. Adjust the rst encoder to select various console settings for pop-up
messages and assorted preferences.
3. Tap the 1st encoder to turn the currently selected setting on/o.
4. Adjust the 2nd encoder to select settings for linking multiple
consolechannels.
5. Tap the 2nd encoder to turn the currently selected setting on/o.
6. Adjust the 3rd encoder to set the console’s panning mode, which aects how
channel panning is performed in the stereo eld. The two choices are:
• LR + Mono: This is the default mode of the console. In this mode,
channels can be panned between the left and right mix outputs, as well
as assigned to the separate mono mix bus. In this mode, the Center/
Mono bus is not aected by from the pan control.
• LCR enable: In this mode, the signal is panned from Left over Center
to Right. This behavior is emulated by the faders on the Main tab,
abehavior that is more intuitive than on other consoles. Note that in
this mode, the denition of “mono” changes since the setup is no longer
mono, but rather a setup consisting of Left-Center-Right.
7. Adjust the 4th encoder to set the brightness of the various LED lights of the
console, from a range of 1-100.
8. Adjust the 5thth encoder to set the brightness of the color screen
(maindisplay), from a range of 1-100.
9. Adjust the 6th encoder to set the brightness of the individual LCD screens
(channel display) above each input and output channel, from a range
of1-100.
7.5.2 Setup Screen: Cong Tab:
The setup screen’s cong tab allows adjustment of various audio-related settings,
such as the console’s base sample rate and use of an internal or external digital
clock. It also oers choices for high-level global settings for how signal path
buses operate.
To adjust the various settings of the cong tab, perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the 1st encoder to select between Console, Show Data, and Libraries
for initialization.
2. Tap the 1st encoder to initialize the console back to its factory state.
• An “are you sure” message will appear. Use the left Page Select key to
cancel out of the operation, or the right key to conrm the operation
and initialize the console.
3. The console’s current rmware is displayed in the rst column of the main
color screen.
• If/when a rmware update is available for the console, the user simply
needs to download the new rmware le to the root level of a USB
thumb drive, attach the thumb drive to the console, and then reboot.
The console will see the rmware le and an update will be done
automatically while booting.
4. Adjust the 2nd encoder to select the digital sample rate of the console.
Choices include:
• 48 kHz
• 44.1 kHz
5. Tap the second encoder to assign the currently selected sample rate.
Tip: Note that the sample rate of the console will be the same sample rate for
any audio recorded to the onboard stereo USB recorder, as well as the sample
rate output by the AES/EBU connector that may get patched into an outboard
recorder. Thus, it is often benecial to select a sample rate that is appropriate for
the medium that recorded audio will eventually be used on.
If the program material being recorded is audio only, with no video component,
then it usually makes sense to set a sample rate of 44.1 kHz. This will ensure that
any audio recorded is compatible with the 44.1 kHz sample rate of commercial
audio CDs.
If the program material being recorded is audio that is meant to accompany
video, then it usually makes sense to set a sample rate of 48 kHz. This will ensure
that any audio recorded is compatible with the 48 kHz sample rate of the various
audio formats used on a video DVD.
6. Adjust the 3rd encoder to set the word clock synchronization of the
console to use its internal digital clock, or slave to an external digital clock.
Choicesfor the clock signal include:
• Internal clock
• External clock from the AES50-A port
• External clock from the AES50-B port
• XUF card
