Shared
Shared mode provides eight channels of Dugan automatic mixing and eight chan-
nels of general purpose ADAT I/O. The Dugan automatic mixing channels are
patched using the
Inserts
tab of the Patchbay page (channels 9–16).
The eight ADAT I/O channels appear on the ADAT connector
AUDIO 1–8
. These channels
are unrelated to Dugan mixing. They appear in the
FOH
tab of Patchbay as channels 1–8.
To set Shared mode:
1. Set the rear panel AUTOMIX–IO 16 switch to AUTOMIX (up).
2. Toggle the #ch button in the Dugan Control Panel software to 8/8 (see #ch on
ADAT Synchronization
You must select a synchronization source to use Shared mode.
There are three ways to synchronize an ADAT input to the Dugan-VN16:
•
Connect the word clock output of the VN16 to the audio source device.
•
Connect the ADAT output of the VN16 to the ADAT input of the audio source device.
•
Connect the word clock output of the audio source device to the word clock input
on your Avid Live Sound System.
ADAT I/O
This mode provides sixteen ADAT I/O channels. ADAT connectors
AUDIO 1–8
and
AUDIO 9–16
serve as a general-purpose I/O interface that can be patched using the
FOH
tab in Patchbay (1–16). These channels provide additional Avid Live Sound Sys-
tem I/O, and do not perform automatic mixing. You must select a synchronization
source to use this mode.
To set ADAT I/O mode:
•
Set the rear panel AUTOMIX / IO 16 switch to IO 16 (down).
