MIXER CONSOLE - INTERACT PRO
The Mixer Console allows you to create mixes of audio and send them to specific outputs using a
matrix array similar to the ClearOne Converge™ Pro line. This allows you greater flexibility in setting
up your conferencing environment. The audio inputs are shown along the left side of the window
and the audio outputs are along the top.
Note: There are several routing paths that are inactive. This is to prevent audio from
being routed back to the source and creating feedback.
Mixer Options
Any number of input-to-output connections can be made in the matrix, with level control at each
cross point. Any input or combination of inputs can be routed to any output or combination of
outputs.
The matrix appears with the current routing configuration displayed for all channels. The
functionality of the matrix screen is described in the following sections.
The routing legend shows the status of cross points using colored cells that mark the intersection
or cross point of the routing from input to output. The color of the cross point cell identifies the
input type:
Input Routing
l To route an input to an output, click in the routing matrix at the intersection between the input
and the output. A mic input can be designated as gated (yellow). All other input cross points
will be colored green.
Note: The current audio level to the nearest dB is shown in cross point cells.
Black cells are restricted routing paths which prevent Telco, Headset RX, USB RX and Processing
channels from being routed back to themselves.
Clear Matrix Button
Press the Clear Matrix button to clear ALL current matrix settings. A Confirm dialog appears
asking you to confirm the clear matrix operation. Use caution when using this feature because the
operation cannot be undone.
Audio Routing Matrix
The numbers and letters along the top and left side of the matrix show the cross point
coordinates. The Labels for each channel are also shown to make them easy to identify. As you
move the cursor over the matrix, the labels for the channels are highlighted in white for each cross
point.
Note: Clicking on a channel label opens the Channel screen for that channel group,
allowing you to modify the channel label and change channel configuration settings
as needed.
Cross Point Shortcut Menu
Cross Point Level Control
To adjust the level for a cross point, right-click on the cross point and select Cross Point from the
shortcut menu. The Cross Point Attenuation slider appears. Move the slider or use the selector box
to set the gain/attenuation level in dB. The range is from -60 to 12dB in .5dB increments. The
default is 0dB.
Note: Your changes are made in real time
Copy and Paste Cells
You can copy a single cell using the shortcut menu options. To copy a cross point, click the cell to
copy, press <Ctrl+C> to copy, then move the cursor to the empty cell you wish to paste, press
<Ctrl+V>. The cross point will be pasted into the empty cell. Alternatively, right click the cell with
your mouse and use the copy/paste menu.
