From the System menu, you can check the current ﬁrmware version and check for

ﬁrmware updates by pressing the Firmware button.

Press the Check for Updates button to check for a new ﬁrmware version, which may

be on an SD card, the internet (when connected), or a connected UC Surface device.

8.1.1.5 Link Aux Mutes

Pressing the Link Aux Mutes button from the System menu lets you select between

four linking modes that choose the way channel mutes and Aux send mutes interact:

• Unlinked. When this mode is selected, channel mutes can be independently

controlled in each Aux Mix and the Main Mix.

• Main Mute Auxes. When this mode is selected, muting a channel in the main

mix will mute it in every aux mix. However, channels can be muted and unmuted

independently from each aux mix.

• All Aux Mute Link. When this mode is select, the channel mutes for every aux mix

are linked. In this mode, muting a channel from any aux mix will mute it in every

aux mix but not in the Main mix.

• Global Mute Link. When this mode is select, the channel mutes for every aux mix

and the Main mix are linked. In this mode, muting a channel from any mix will

mute it in every mix.

8.1.2 Global Lockout

The StudioLive features a Lockout mode that allows you to lock the controls. This is

especially useful in situations where you have to step away from the console and are

concerned about curious audience members or band members making

modiﬁcations to your mix.

Pressing the Global Lockout button from the Home screen will lock your mixer.

Enter 1-2-3-4-5 to unlock your mixer.
