iLive System components
iDR10 MixRack The MixRack is the heart of
the digital audio processing system. It houses the
DSP mix engine together with control and audio
networking interfaces. The 64 input x 32 bus
architecture is fully configurable for mono/stereo
and type of mix. It is known as the iDR10 because it
has 10 card slots for fitting any combination of input
and output modules.
iDR0 MiniRack The MiniRack is similar to the
iDR10 MixRack except it does not have any card
slots for input or output modules. Instead it gets its
audio via the EtherSound network. It can be used
as the slave mix engine in an FOH/Monitor system
with digital mic split, or as a compact mixer with an
iLive Surface using the audio I/O in the back of the
Surface.
iLive Surface There are 4 sizes of control
surface available with up to 44 faders. These are
arranged in banks with 4 layers each. The surface has
a 4 slot card frame built in to load up to 4x 8 channel
input or output modules for local I/O.
iLive Flightcases iLive systems can be
ordered with touring grade flightcases. These have
wheels with brakes. The MixRack case uses rubber
shock mounts to protect the rack and has front and
rear covers. The surface case is a three part design.
The surface may be operated while in its base.
CAT5 Cables iLive is shipped with a pair
of short CAT5 cables with locking Neutrik
connectors to connect the rack and surface,
one for audio, one for control. An optional 80m
(262’) drum of armoured CAT5 cable is
available from Allen & Heath. Two drums are
required for the typical system.
LEDlamp 4-pin XLR gooseneck
LED lamp with built-in dimmer. Each
Surface has 3 lamp sockets except the
iLive-80 which has 2.
PL Series Remotes iLive is
designed to work with the Allen & Heath
PL Series remote controllers. Several
different models are available. Each
control and indicator can be
programmed from the Surface or using
the Editor software.
iLive System Manager PC
and MAC software for using a PC,
laptop or touch tablet to control the
iLive system or edit its settings off line.
TCP/IP Ethernet connection allows
wired or wireless control with or
without a Surface connected.
iPS10 Backup PSU Rack mounted external
power supply to provide redundant backup for the
iLive Surface or iDR0 MiniRack.
