Main control
On synchronization completion, you’ll be presented with the routing screen. This offers you a nice overview of
the features available in the device. Let’s take a look.
The routing matrix
The largest part of this screen is taken up by the routing matrix, which allows you to control the path you audio
signal will travel through the device. All available input channels are positioned to the left of the matrix, while
the outputs are shown at the bottom.
When connected to an Engineer, the device type (418 or 818) will be auto-detected, and the matrix will be
adjusted to the number of inputs.
When you press one of the nodes in the matrix you connect one of the inputs to the outputs on the bottom.
The route travelled by the signal is highlighted, with the enabled node coloured in green. At this point you can
adjust the volume of the signal by right clicking the node and adjusting the gain value.
