On-line monitoring/operation

  1. Connect a computer (that has PM Editor installed) to the DSP engine (or to the control surface) using an Ethernet cable.
  • For more information on configuring the network, please refer to the “RIVAGE PM Editor Installation Guide.”
NOTE
  • Up to two instances of PM Editor can be connected. If you want to connect two instances of PM Editor to the DSP engine (or to the control surface), use a network hub to make connections. Alternatively, you can connect one instance of PM Editor to the DSP engine and another instance to the control surface.
  1. Start PM Editor.
  • The following screen appears at start-up.
NOTE
  • Although the screen (that is displayed in response to differently-configured panel elements, such as User Defined Keys) varies depending on the MIXER TYPE setting, the same data will be processed. In addition, on-line connection to PM Editor will be unaffected.
  • If the DSP selection does not match the actual DSP engine, you will be unable to connect to the DSP engine on-line. Select the type of the DSP engine that you are actually using, because the number of available input channels varies depending on the DSP type.
  1. In SELECT MIXER TYPE, select the RIVAGE PM Series unit; and in NETWORK INTERFACE, select the network that you will use.
  • If an IP address that can be connected to the selected network is specified, the Connect button can be pressed.
  1. Click the Connect button so that the RIVAGE PM series will be linked to PM Editor.
NOTE
  • If you plan to link channel block selection in PM Editor with that of console bay R, press [SETUP] -> [PREFERENCES] -> MISC tab to access the LINK TO/FROM CONSOLE field, and then set FADER BANK SEL (BAY R) to “on”.
  • Once the DSP engine detects PM Editor on-line, the DEVICE SYNC screen appears.
  • When connecting PM Editor, you must specify the data sync direction for the DSP engine.
  1. Select “EDITOR ← DSP.”
  1. Press the SYNC button.
  • Parameter settings on the RIVAGE PM series will be copied to PM Editor. Once data synchronization is completed, the line indicating synchronization is displayed in green.
  1. Edit the mixing data.
