[QUOTE="Joseph Schuurman, post: 92129, member: 4464"] Re: X32 Noisy Cooling Fan Thanks John, for the info, especially about the latency. I'll keep it seup how we have it, but unassign 32 from LR, and in the future investigate routing internally. As for the MCA feature in XiQ, we use that for sure, but it's not practical for the situation where we want all the channels to be in there. Not only is it an (sorry) annoying interface to select so many channels, but they're all pre-fader (because it's setup as a monitor mix), and it's unpractical for a musician to use the XiQ app in landscape mode while actually performing. If something, say they want to hear the electric guitar on his solor, or this song the lead vocals changed, everyone would need to tweak the monitors (maybe). By routing the LR back in as a single channel, we put the reliance on the sound guy to get the mix right (which he's already doing for the live audience), but the musicians now don't need to worry about it, when the the lead vocals changes, they'll hear the boost in their monitor, when the guitar solo comes, they'll hear it in thier monitor. Typically, we'll have one of the vertical XiQ channels for that ch32, and have it set from anywhere maybe 10% for primary musicians, and up to maybe 50% for secondary backup singers and musicians, then the other 3 are for the individual monitor mix's, say their vocal, or insturment, etc.. Also by routing the LR to monitors (a percentage of it), we get the sound from the stage sounding more like the like sound that the audience is hearing, which is a good thing for both the people on the stage but also the people near the stage (it's not as distracting hear pre-fader monitors blaring). We're transitioning into ears, but it's taking time. [/QUOTE]
