 MODE: NOMA or EXCLUSIVE mode selection
 MAX. NOM (NOMA mode only): maximum number of signals that may simultaneously be part of
the automatic mixing. Regardless of the number of inputs that have been selected in the INPUTS
list (to the left of the AUTOMIXER window) as candidates to be automatically mixed, the MAX.
NOM parameter sets how many of them can be mixed at a given moment with the automix
algorithm. For example, if the application consists of 8 lecturer microphones, but MAX. NOM is
set to a value of 4, only a maximum of 4 of these 8 microphones (from 0 to 4, in fact) are actually
mixed automatically, although the 8 microphones capture signals above a certain intensity, the
algorithm deciding at all times which of the 8 eligible inputs will join the mixing bus.
 LAST ON: when this option is enabled, at least the last signal to join the mixing bus will
permanently remain in it, even when it no longer meets the input criteria, being composed only by
weak signals or background noise. In this mode, the mixing bus will never remain fully silenced,
thus avoiding the uncomfortable effect of audio "disconnection" of the system during the intervals
in which there are no valid signals for the automatic mixing process.
 PRIORITY INPUT: if desired, define a device input that will have the highest "chairman" priority.
When this input exceeds the noise gate threshold, it will become part of the mixing bus, inhibiting
the other signals. The priority signal is the one that usually comes from the microphone of a
moderator or chairman during conferences, debates, etc.
 THRESHOLD: input level of the signals in the automix bus, based on the internal threshold that
the internal mixing algorithm automatically and dynamically calculates. The higher the setting, the
greater the difficulty for the input signals to be incorporated into the mixing bus (a higher level will
be required).
 DEPTH: attenuation level applied to the signals that are outside of the bus at a given moment
 HOLD: holding time of the signals within the mix bus, once they have entered into it, and after
leaving to meet again with the criteria of admission
 NOM ATTN.: attenuation applied to the total gain of the automatic mix bus whenever the number
of signals contained therein is doubled
