PC Software Operation The settings of the Versadrive SC-26 can be edited from your PC via USB connection. This can be done live during performance or you can store settings to the unit before your gig. An additional RS-485 connection allows long-distance network use allowing 250 units to be used at once while being up to 1500m away from the PC. When using multiple Versadrive SC-26 units, click the INTERFACE button on the right hand side of the window and you can select a different unit.
Additional Output Channel Settings When an output channel is selected for editing, to the left of the EQ, volume delay and polarity can also be edited. The output channels also have access to crossover, compressor and limiting settings which can be similarly as you would do in the stand alone operation. The crossover frequency is also shown graphically on the EQ display above.
