Release Notes for Firmware Version 1.3.09373
New Features / Improvements (Mixer):
This version adds a gain-sharing Automatic Microphone Mixer (AMM). Automatic Microphone Mixers are most commonly used for speech applications such as conferences, presentations or panel discussions in which there are multiple talkers and multiple microphones. An Auto Mixer will reduce feedback and minimize extraneous noise (such as paper rustling from panelists or HVAC) by allocating gain to microphone channels with active talkers while reducing the gain of unused channels. The TouchMix-30 Automatic Microphone Mixer (Auto Mixer) is a gain sharing design that is available for all 24 mic/line input channels.
Bug Fixes (Mixer)
Fixed a bug that could crash the Ethernet driver and require a hard power cycle if bad data was entered for the gateway IP address.
Fixed a bug that caused the Phones and Monitor buttons to remain dimly lit when mixer is in Standby.
Android App – A recent release of the Chrome browser for Android introduced a change that could cause the Android TouchMix app to crash when meter activity occurs. This has been fixed.
Known Issues
The Automatic Microphone Mixer's Sensitivity Follows Fader function is not documented in the built-in Info System. This will be corrected in a future release. The missing information is as follows.
For some applications it may be desirable for the sensitivity of an Auto Mix channel to vary as the channel fader is moved. For example, an operator may want to bring a talker's level down while his microphone is being repositioned. At the same time, the operator wants to reduce the effect of the microphone handling noise on the other Auto Mixer channels. Sensitivity Follows Fader will function similarly to a post-fader pickoff point but the Auto Mixer will not be affected by channel dynamics and EQ. This eliminates unpredictable interactions between the channel compressor and the Auto Mixer while still allowing the Auto Mixer to respond to changes in channel level. The Auto Mixer sensitivity will also be affected by any DCA assigned to control the channel.
Android only – On some Android tablets, the responsiveness of the RTA may be sluggish.
Android only – When using multiple Android tablets and accessing the EQ screen, a pop-up message will appear indicating that the RTA is currently in use by another device even if no attempt has been made to engage the RTA.
Automatic Notification Text
Adds gain-sharing automatic microphone mixer.
Other fixes for minor issues. See release notes on line for details.
