XL8 Control Centre:
don’t change the way you think.
As can be expected from the design team at Midas, the XL8 has been painstakingly designed to address the way in which sound engineers approach the task of mixing. The control centre can be operated from scratch quickly and easily – even by engineers new to digital control surfaces.XL8 has been designed so the engineer does not have to think in terms of numbers, pages or layers.
Usersnavigate the system and identify channels by colours and groupings, which they themselves create. This method allows an individualised approach to mixing, rather than working within hardware-dictated numerical limitations.
This reassuringly familiar way of working is central to the XL8 and ensures that engineers donot have to change their way of thinking to feel comfortable with the new system.Each of the five bays of the console is a discrete hardware module,which is independent of its neighbour and incorporates its own power supply, surface processor, GUI processor and screen. The only common connection is via a single Ethernet link to the network
The standard 5-bay control surface comprises a total of five of the following three modules:
• 3 x Input module
• 1 x Mix module
• 1 x Output module.

DN9331 RAPIDE
The DN9331 is a 6U 19” rack unit and is a motorised fader remote control for the XL8’s onboard Graphic EQs. It connects using a single Ethernet cable and provides instant real-time control of all onboard assignable graphic equalisers, via the Solo Tracking System (STS) .Integrating a Midas/Klark Teknik STS Solo Tracking System interface, the Helix RAPIDE is ideal for use in stage monitoring systems.
When combined with a Midas Heritage, Legend, Siena or XL8 Live Performance System, the solo buttons on each aux send can be used to instantly recall the graphic equaliser settings of the connected channel of Helix digital equalisation.
This offers the monitor engineer unparalleled speed of access in situations demanding an immediate response.A flexible user interface allows custom remote channel assignments across four banks of 32 channel selection buttons. Four freely assignable group buttons and a global ‘all channels’ button allow relative adjustment of channels, especially important when the priority is to stop on-stage feedback first, and determine the source second.The Helix RAPIDE is the networking centre of the Show Command System. An eight external port Ethernet hub is incorporated into the device, allowing the connection of Helix digital equalisers and system processors, with wired or wireless connections to laptop or tablet PCs running the Elgar Helix EQ RCS and System Controller RCS.
The Helix RAPIDE is fully backwards-compatible with the original Helix DN9340 and DN9344 digital equalisers which may be interfaced using Ethernet-to-serial converters.
