Specifications

Control Surface

The STAGETEC ON AIR 24 is simply a control surface plus talkback, monitoring and metering. Audio processing is performed on the XCMC slide-in board accommodated in a NEXUS Base Device.

Projects and Automation

onair_2011_08_17_0066The ON AIR 24 is controlled by a global set of data, which is called a »project«. This project encompasses the entire working environment: all data to control the console surface, the switching status of the inputs and outputs, the input and output parameters, assignment of the audio channels to the console’s fader channels, audio processing setup as well as 99 snapshots. Therefore a project contains all the data for a »ready-to-use-console configuration«. The project file can be stored on a memory card. This enables the project to be used for future sessions and also enables projects to be changed quickly and easily. Thanks to the reasonable price of SD cards it is also a good medium for archiving project data.
