iLive Editor is a
software application for PC or MAC control of the system using a laptop, touch tablet or
computer network. It can be run offline to pre-configure the system, or online to control a live mix. Editor and the
Surface can work together at the same time, for example mixing monitors using a laptop on
stage while the Surface controls the FOH mix. Several laptops can simultaneously control one
system, or one laptop can run multiple sessions to control several systems on the same
network.
Wireless operation is possible using a standard Ethernet router. This gives the
operator complete freedom to move around the venue and stage adjusting the sound where it is
needed. Touch tablet laptops allow fast data entry and control using your finger or a
stylus.
Show files archived, created or edited using the laptop can be recalled online to the iLive using Editor, or transferred to other systems using a USB key.
The Editor application can itself
be controlled via MIDI letting the user add third party MIDI controllers to access selected
parameters.
The computer connects to the iLive via standard TCP/IP Ethernet. Editor supports
several popular operating systems and is available for free download from the Allen
& Heath web site.
For information on computer
requirements and operating systems supported refer to the Readme Notes that come with
the software. For further information and to download the software refer to the
