Select ion and Editing com m ands

The editing commands of the Energya digital mixer are located on the right, under the speaker.

The following are available directly on the mixer for interacting with these tools: 4 arrows

(up - down - left - right), a jog (incremental encoder), an ENTER key and an ESC key. The

operator can also use an external keyboard and a mouse to further facilitate editing

commands (future enhancement).

The main menu consists of 8 options (Input Configuration, Channel Assign, OUT / AUX

Configuration, CUE Configuration, Clock Timer Setup, System Configuration, Password

Configuration and Save/Recall Setup) - select one of these to access the typical characteristics

of that menu.

I n pu t Con figu r at ion

It is possible to set the different inputs depending on the connected sources. The first step is to

assign the name source (Ie. Line1= CD1), the second one is to enter into the setup menu where

is possible to set the other channel functions.

The inputs already setted will then be assigned to the 8 available channels (slider) by using

"Channel assign" menu.

There are three types of input: 4 microphone, 16 analog line and 4 digital line (AES/EBU).

Obviously, LINE inputs, whether analog or digital, can be of 3 different types: NORMAL,

TELCO 1 and TELCO 2.

Let's see what the Telco mode is. Th is m ode st r ict ly con cer ns an alog or digit al

PRI VATE COMMUNI CATI ON

While the DJ or the m usic are broadcast live, the director talks with the listener via the service

microphone, by pressing the TB Key. The director is able to hear the listener via the CUE line. I f

the channels being broadcast live at the tim e are program m ed to also send their signal toward the

TELCOs, the listener on the telephone, in addition to hearing the director, also hears what is being

broadcast. The system is designed so that, when the TELCO channel is in STOP state (therefore,

in private m ode), the signal directly sent by the m odules to the TELCO bus must be attenuated to

a certain preset degree, whereas the signal com ing from the service microphone m ust be set to

normal level.

DI RECT COMMUNI CATI ON

While broadcasting live, t he DJ t alks wit h t he listener ( also live) via t he DJ m icrophone. The MI C

DJ channel is in START state and t he slider is raised, t he TELCO channel is also in START st at e,

wit h the slider raised.

the option flashing below the cursor. Using the left and right arrows, move around the different

fields of the selected option, and use the up and down arrows to change the value of the data-

item under the cursor. When you have finished entering the field, press "Enter" to exit the option

you have just edited, and proceed to edit other data.

This is the procedure to arrange association of the device at input.

Exam ple: I nput Mike 1 - Guest1 Microphone

- Locate the flashing cursor in the box to the left of the Mike 1 words -

Press "Enter" - Use the up arrow key to select the letter N -

Use the right arrow key to move into the next field -

Use the same technique to fully compose the word Guest1 - remember you have a maximum of

10 fields at your disposal. - Press Enter, and the cursor will move to the left of the word

Setup referring to Mike 1.

You can proceed in the same way for all the inputs.

We shall now see how to set specific parameters for the three types of input.

M ik e Se t u p

You can set all the necessary values by using the editing system we explained previously.

Let's see to what the 26 available parameters refer.

MI C ADJ

Adjustment of input level in the range 0 ÷ +30 dB for microphones with very low levels.

LEVEL

Typical adjustment of input level in range - 12 ÷ +12 dB

PAN

Channel balance adjustment

INSERT

This function enables you to shift the pre-amplified microphone signal to the INSERT input/output

instead of to the analog bus. If enabled, it sends the output signal to the insert connector - this

signal can then be used as an input of an external audio processor. The processed signal is then

re-introduced to the insert input for re-distribution to the analog bus.

PHANTOM

Enable +48V power supply

This function is used if there are devices with pulsed starts/stops all on the same wire:

the start's echo would cause the source to stop. On the contrary, in the OFF mode, the

command is sent back at output too

GPI / GPO SETUP

For access to the remote controls menu

I n t er na l Voice Pr ocessor Se t up

Let's analyse the microphone processor options.

A microphone process curve can be called back and/or modified from this menu.

PRESET N. & DJN AME

These parameters identify the number of the curve associated with a given DJ, up to a maximum

of 30, and the name of the DJ too. Inputting is done, as we explained previously, by using the

Enter and arrow keys. The following parameters are typical of a 3-band microphone processor.

First of all, we shall see what the variation ranges are for each parameter, and we shall then

explain them.

EQUALI ZZATI ON :

Low Band Mid Band High Band

CENTER F. 0.03 ÷ 0.6 kHz0.2÷7.5 kHz 0.4 ÷ 15 kHz
