m-c o n t r o l
The LS9 External HA screen includes the following setting:
• 1. COMM Port Setting — Set this to the same MY expansion slot where the 6416Y2 card
being used for console remote control is installed. Setting this field to the Off setting (‑‑‑‑) will
stop all remote control communication. Use the De c /In c keys to select a port, and then press
the en t e R key.
• 2. Remote Preamps ID — Available remote controllable preamps are shown in groups of
eight channels; note that the device name is always displayed as “AD8HR.” The red “+48V
Master” text indicates that the remote AD8HR preamp’s master on/off switch for phantom
power is on. The 6416m does not have a separate phantom power master on/off switch, so
this parameter will always be on.
• 3. Expansion Slot Port Assignment — Use this field to assign channels of the 6416Y2 card(s)
installed in the MY expansion slots to the groups of eight remote mic preamp channels. Each
6416Y2 offers two groups of eight channels, 1‑8 and 9‑16, at the 44.1/48kHz sample rate.
• 4. Virtual Mic Preamps — This overview shows the current level setting for each remote mic
preamp device connected.
Selecting one of the virtual mic preamp fields and then hitting the en t e R button on the LS9 will bring up the
full size External HA screen that allows all remote controllable parameters to be viewed and edited, displayed in
groups of eight channels. The available virtual racks can be selected by choosing one of the numbers at the top of
the screen—two virtual racks for the LS9‑16 and four virtual racks for the LS9‑32. (See below.)
The eight-channel External HA screen shows all controllable parameters.
Only active Pro64 channels on connected 6416m preamps can be edited. Remember that the HPF parameters
can only be set to on/off; the high pass filter cutoff frequency parameter does not apply to the 6416m Mic Input
Module. The device type will always be displayed as “AD8HR” as Pro64’s m‑control is emulating this protocol. All
changes made from this screen are instantly transmitted to active 6416m channels on the Pro64 network.
Assigning Remote Preamp Channels to the LS9 Faders
Each mixer channel on an LS9 can be configured to use any of the console’s available audio resources, including
the built‑in mic/line inputs on the LS9 rear panel and channels coming into the console via MY expansion slots.
The default routings for the LS9‑16 have channels 1‑16 patched to receive audio from the rear‑panel jacks; audio
from MY expansion slots defaults to channels 17 and above. The LS9‑32 has the first 32 mixer channels patched to
receive audio from the rear panel input jacks, with channels 33‑64 defaulting to the two MY slots.
