larry long Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 What are your thoughts? How do you monitor? How do you handle slate, talkback and comm with boom op? TIA, Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Hi Larry, I was intrigued when Zax came up with the original Mix 12 idea, and was lucky enough that they asked me to help them yto Beta test it. I too wondered about all those useful features of the analogue (and digital) stand alone desks and how I would get those features on the Mix 12. Monitoring is easy - I monitor though the Deva, and with a combination of the Deva HP page and the solo buttons on the Mix 12 I am able to monitor whatever I want. As regards to the comms facilities, the Mix 12 unlocks an extra page of routing within the Deva software. This allows the slate mic on the Deva to be routed (through 3 different hard buttons on the Mix 12) to a slate destination, a Comms 1 destination, or a Comms 2 destination. All three destinations can be separately programmed, so it is very flexible. The Mix 12 also unlocks the ability to easily control EQ and Comp/Limiters within the Deva soft. I kept my Beta tester, and use it almost every day that I have worked since. I hope that this helps. Kindest regards, Simon B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Simon--does using the Mix12 up the power draw of the Deva significantly? Philip Perkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbrisett Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 There is no power draw on the Deva since the Mix-12 requires the use of it's own power source. Basically, it is a hardware interface into a lot of the features of the Deva. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 So how much does the Mix 12 draw, then? Philip Perkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 The Mix-12 only draws about 500ma of 12VDC, so it's pretty teeny-tiny. I suspect most of that is used up by the LED readouts and illuminated buttons. --Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
