Gain

When engaged, the Auto Gain function simplies adjusting the analyser

views and ensuring meaningful readings. In most cases it should be switched

on. When switched o, the RTA gain can be set manually using the push

encoder, which may be necessary for comparing absolute frequency band

levels between dierent channels. Tap the fourth push encoder to engage the

AutoGainfunction.

EQ Overlay

When using the analysers on top of the channel EQ plot or over the graphic

EQscreens, the meter’s opacity can be adjusted to your liking. Something around

50% is typically a good starting point. Turn it down to 0% with the fth push

encoder if you don’t need to see the RTA on top of the channel EQ or graphic

EQscreens.

RTA On Channel EQ View

The channel EQ RTA function will always display the respective channel’s

frequency distribution, independent from the RTA Source denition. Use the EQ

Overlay control for adjusting the amount of RTA on top of the EQ plot. Default

preferences when opening any channel EQ view can be set to ‘Pre-EQ’ (o is

Post-EQ) and ‘Spectrograph’ (o is bar graph). They can however be overruled on

the respective EQ page.

RTA On Graphic EQ View

The Graphic EQ RTA function will always display the respective FX slot’s frequency

distribution, independent from the RTA Source denition, unless the ‘Use RTA

Source’ mark is ticked. Use the EQ Overlay control for adjusting the amount of RTA

on top of the GEQ sliders. Default preferences when opening any GEQ view can

be set to ‘Post-GEQ’ (o is pre-graphic EQ) and ‘Spectrograph’ (o is bar graph).

Theycan however be overruled on the respective GEQ page.

2.3 Routing

The ROUTING screen is where all signal patching is done, allowing you to route

internal signal paths to and from the physical input/output connectors located

on the M32’s rear panel.

The ROUTING screen contains the following separate tabs:

home: Allows patching of physical inputs to the 32 input channels and

auxiliary inputs of the console.

out 1-16: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the console’s 16 rear-

panel XLR outputs.

aux out: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the console’s six rear-

panel ¼"/RCA auxiliary outputs.

p16 out: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the 16 outputs of the

console’s 16-channel P16 Ultranet output.

card out: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the 32 outputs of the

DN32-USB card.

aes50-a: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the 48 outputs of the

rear-panel AES50-A output.

aes50-b: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the 48 outputs of the

rear-panel AES50-B output.

xlr out: Allows patching of internal signal paths to the XLR out connections

on the rear.

None of the ROUTING screen’s tabs contain a secondary level of functions. When

routing audio, the Up/Down navigation controls do not need to be used.

home

The ROUTING screen’s home tab allows the user to patch the M32’s physical

rear-panel inputs to the 32 input channels and auxiliary inputs of the console.

As a default, the M32 maps its 32 rear-panel analogue inputs to the respective 32

channel inputs that are accessed on input fader layers one and two, and maps the

rear-panel line-level (auxiliary) inputs to the third input fader level.

However, the home tab of the ROUTING screen can be used to change this

default assignment and cross-patch dierent physical inputs to dierent

channel inputs, in banks of eight channels at a time. This allows the user to

create a custom layer of channel inputs that diers from the order that the

sources are plugged into the rear panel, and is easier than physically re-patching

audiocables.

To assign various inputs to the M32’s input channels, perform the followingsteps:

1. Adjust the rst push encoder to select which 8-channel audio input source

feeds input channels 1-8 of the console. As the control is rotated, the

currently selected input will be highlighted in the vertical list of choices.

2. When the desired 8-channel source is selected, push the rst push encoder

to connect the currently selected 8-channel source. The selected source now

feeds input channels 1-8 of the console.

3. Input choices that can be assigned include:

• Local 1-8

• Local 9-16

• Local 17-24

• Local 25-32

• AES50-A 1-8

• AES50-A 9-16

• AES50-A 17-24

• AES50-A 25-32

• AES50-A 33-40

• AES50-A 41-48

• AES50-B 1-8

• AES50-B 9-16

• AES50-B 17-24

• AES50-B 25-32

• AES50-B 33-40

• AES50-B 41-48

• Card 1-8

• Card 9-16

• Card 17-24

• Card 25-32.

4. To assign an 8-channel source from the other input channels of the console

(9-16, 17-24, 25-32), simply repeat the process above, using the other four

push encoders on the same screen.

5. Choices for Aux 1-4 include:

• Aux Ins

• Local 1-2

• Local 1-4

• Local 1-6
