Hi. I'm really struggling how to work out how to feed my main outs (and monitor mixes) to my Stage Box 16:8.

Inputs are working fine, but I don't have a clue how to route the main mix L/R, then. Mix 1 (etc) so they come from the stage box, rather than mixer.

I know there is a way. I've tried all the mapping options (wrongly, I guess!).

I need this for tonight. Is it simple to explain or guide me please?If anyone is kind enough to call me and walk me through it, I'd be happy to send a PayPal donation!! (yes... I'm obviously slow, but I can manage that! :))

Thank you so much!

In order to assign the outputs on the NSB stage box you need to send it one if the seven AVVB streams, depending on what you want to go out of the NSB. NSB Outputs are assigned via the Stagebox menu (UC Settings). While these are going to be blocks of 8, you can soft patch them in the AVB sends options in Digital Patching too. 

There is a drop down menu after selecting the NSB unit.

1: AVB Sends 1-8 = Channels 1-8 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • If you wish the output to be post DSP, then on the change the “Digital Send Option” for the channel to be “Post”

2: AVB Sends 9-16 = Channels 9-16 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • If you wish the output to be post DSP, then on the change the “Digital Send Option” for the channel to be “Post”  

3: AVB Sends 17-24 = Channels 17-24 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • If you wish the output to be post DSP, then on the change the “Digital Send Option” for the channel to be “Post”  

4: AVB Sends 25-32 = Channels 25-32 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • If you wish the output to be post DSP, then on the change the “Digital Send Option” for the channel to be “Post”  

5: AVB Sends 33-40 are broken up as the following

  • 33-34: Aux input 1L, 2R = Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • 35-36: Aux input 3L, 4R = Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • 37-38: Tape In L, Tape In R = Pre-DSP, Pre Fader AVB sends.
  • 39-40: Main L, Main R= Post Fader/DSP AVB sends
  • If you wish the output to be post DSP, then on the change the “Digital Send Option” for the channel to be “Post”
     

6: AVB Sends 41-48 = Mix 1 to 8 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Behaves the same as a normal Aux with Pre/Post and DSP settings

7: AVB Sends 49-56 = Mix 9 to 16 = NSB Outputs 1-8

  • Behaves the same as a normal Aux with Pre/Post and DSP settings
