Split Mode

In the split mode, the system is configured as:

Room 1 microphones are in automixer group 1

Room 1 microphones are routed to the Room 1 telephony transmit and to

the HDX codec

Program audio 1 goes is routed to Room 1 loudspeakers, Room 1

telephony transmit, and the HDX

Room 1 telephony is routed to Room 1 loudspeakers and to the HDX

Room 1 HDX remote audio is routed to the Room 1 loudspeakers
Similarly for Room 2:

Room 2 microphones are in automixer group 2

Room 2 microphones are routed to the Room 2 telephony transmit

Program audio 2 is routed to the Room 2 loudspeakers and to the Room 2

telephony transmit

Room 2 telephony is routed to Room 2 loudspeakers
To create the split and combined settings, there will be two presets called

“Split” and “Combine”. These two presets will make it possible to switch

easily between the two modes of operation.
To leverage the control available when using the HDX, this project uses the

virtual channel names “Amplifier” and “Mics” (as described in Chapter 6) to

allow HDX controllers (such as the HDX IR remote) to be used to mute the

microphones in the appropriate zone and adjust volume easily. The “Ampli-

fier” and “Mics” virtual channels will be defined as submixes that can be

adjusted with the “Split” and “Combine” presets.
When an HDX video codec is used with SoundStructure, any command to

mute the HDX will forward a command to mute the virtual channel “Mics”

and if a command is sent to the HDX, the HDX will forward a command to

SoundStructure to adjust the fader level on the channel “Amplifier”.
