The integrator can freely design multiple user interfaces, tailored to different user levels and/or device types. For example, a bartender can be presented with a simple phone interface, while the AV operator can access uncluttered levels and routing on their tablet, but more comprehensive control when using their laptop.

Up to 8 GPIO modules can be connected to an AHM, Avantis or dLive system – directly or via a 100Mb/s network switch – using a Cat5 cable.

The design of the app interface is via Custom Control editor software. Access to all levels, mutes and sends is provided, together with preset recall, source selection and metering. Tabs can be configured for easy access to multiple control pages or zones. A library of control designs is provided, with the option to add custom graphics to match the venue. Once complete, the configuration is uploaded to the AHM processor, Avantis or dLive MixRack, ready for deployment.

Any device running the Custom Control app can log into the system with a given user profile, at which point the correct user interface is instantly downloaded and displayed. This allows for both kiosk applications and BYOD use, since the configuration is deployed on demand. Users can be password protected for added security.

Perfect companions for AHM matrix processors, dLive or Avantis systems in installations, CC-7 and CC-10 are control touch panels for desktop or wall mount use. Powered by the Allen & Heath Custom Control app, they can operate as fixed control devices or complementing a BYOD solution. From simple music source selection to level control, preset recall or paging, they offer an alternative to our range of IP remote controllers for applications where a touchscreen interface is preferred.

Previously known as the ‘DAW Control Driver’, Allen & Heath MIDI Control works by creating virtual MIDI ports in Mac OS or Windows and then connecting these to the mixer via USB-B (SQ, Qu, CQ) or over a network.

Supported mixers include dLive, Avantis, AHM, SQ, Qu, CQ, GLD and ZED-R16 models.

For further information and setup instructions please see the MIDI Control Help document included with the download.
Details on the MIDI Protocols for each range are available from the Resources section.
