Combiner
This function is used when audio signals are shared between multiple rooms, or when a
single room is partitioned in varying ways. The audio signal outputs are changed according
to how the rooms are divided or connected. The DME7 provides two types of combiner:
“Room Combiner” and “Room Combiner plus Automixer.” The latter adds Dan Dugan
Automixer functionality. Up to eight rooms can be registered in the combiner, and you can
also specify the shape of the rooms as their actual shape. You can register snapshots in a
remote controller such as a DCP, and recall parameters as appropriate for the state of the
rooms.
Here we explain using “Room Combiner plus Automixer.”
When you drag this from the “Components” area and drop it on the design sheet, a dialog
box appears, allowing you to design the room.
After the Combiner components have been placed, the number of rooms and number
of MICs cannot be changed from Properties.
Drag the cells to create the room. When you click a cell that makes up a room, the room is
canceled; when you drag from a cell that makes up a room to a cell that is not part of a room,
the room is extended. Create the rooms, and then click the [Next] button. The screen
changes to a screen where you can reassign the room numbers.
