MUTE GROUPS and SNAPSHOT MEMORIES
Mute Groups Explained
A mute group lets you turn a selected combination
of channels on or off with a single key press. The
mute group key acts as a remote control for the
assigned channel mutes.
Mute groups are edited by selecting assign mode
and using the channel MUTE switches to assign
channels to the group. The assignment is edited or
viewed one group at a time.
The ML3000 has 8 mute groups. You can select
more than one group at the same time. VCA group
mutes cannot be assigned to the mute groups.
Mute group settings are not stored as part of the
console snapshot memory system. However,
channels which have been muted by a group will be
stored.
MASTER MUTE. Press one or more of these
momentary action switches to mute the channels
assigned to them. More than one group can be
selected at the same time. The switch illuminates
when the group is selected. Press again to turn the
group off. Note that you can release and reselect
the assigned channel mutes while the group is on.
Assigning Mute Groups
This is done in the same way as the VCA groups.
Refer to the method described on the previous
page.
Using Mute Groups
Applications include muting groups of instruments,
unused channels when mixing different bands, all
channels except walk in music before the show
starts, all effects, a bank of radio mics during an
instrumental number, stage mics during a scene
change, and so on.
Snapshot Memories Explained
The mute and VCA assignment settings can be
stored in the 128 console ‘snapshot’ memories.
This is similar to taking a ‘picture’ of the settings.
These can be recalled for scene or song changes
during live performance. Patch changes can be
linked to external sequencers and effects devices
using MIDI for sophisticated show control and
archiving of the memories. Memory data is retained
on power down.
Recalling a snapshot does not turn off any mutes
which have been turned on by the Mute and VCA
groups. The groups always take priority. The
contents of the snapshot memories can be archived
via MIDI or RS232.
Note: This function is not available from the
console control surface. It is an ‘extra’ feature
accessed via the MIDI or RS232 port using a PC
running the Allen & Heath ML Archiver program.
This can be downloaded from the Allen & Heath
Internet site. Full details and instructions are
provided with the program.
Using Snapshot Memories
The snapshot memories allow automated recall of
console mutes and VCA assignments adding a
powerful new level of show control. Attaching the
VCA group assignments to the snapshot system
means that which channels are assigned to the
VCA groups can change scene by scene or song by
song. For example, a VCA fader may be assigned
as ‘lead vocal’, another as ‘chorus’. A performer
may sing lead in one song and chorus in the next
while a different singer (channel) takes the lead.
The same group faders adjust the lead and chorus
levels. This may also apply when mixing different
bands on the same faders, or applying different
effects to different songs.
For more automated control you can connect a
MIDI sequencer or show controller to trigger the
memories according to programmed cues.
