Like Type Master Monitor Panel
JBL DrivePack®
Overview
JBL Like-Type Master Monitor Panels combine the functionality of Like-Type Master Monitor Panels and Master Individual Monitor Panels into one master frame. When creating a like-type master monitor panel of "like-type" and "non-like" devices, Audio Architect sorts and groups like-types of devices together and then creates multiple master monitor panel versions of the different JBL speaker models selected for the master group. The JBL Like-Type Master Monitor Panel monitors all JBL devices in a venue selected for the master monitor group and allows master control of the input gain as well as master input mutes and output channel mutes. All of the individual like-type master monitor panels within the master frame provide the same visual displays and controls as the Overall Master.
Features
Controls
- Master Input Gain Fader - The Master Input Fader is a multi-device control and the index box displays offset levels of individual devices. Double-clicking in the index box will open a master individual input control sub-panel. For more details see help for Master Gain Controls.
- Mute - The Master Input and Output Mute buttons are also multi-device controls and will force a mute or unmute state to all devices in the group. An alert symbol in any of the control buttons indicates a difference in function or state of the associated control in any individual device within the master group.
