ANALOG OUTPUTS TO
AD-24 INPUTS
1. Connect the direct outputs of your analog mixer,
snake or interface to the individual analog inputs
on the AD-24.
2. The AD-24 offers both 24 individual ¼” inputs
and three 8-channel DB-25 inputs.
3. The ¼” TRS connections 1-24 are mirrored (in
parallel) on DB-25 connections 1-24 so they can
operate as a pass-through if necessary.
If your mixer does not have direct outs, you can
use the channel inserts, using a specially wired
cable that connects the “tip” and “ring” signal.
Consult your Digital Audio Labs dealer for
details on obtaining this cable.

erate in stereo pairs, one switch controls both

2. The front panel has LED indicators to tell you the
signal strength of an input.
• GREEN indicates a signal with appropriate
levels.
• YELLOW indicates the signal level needs to
be lowered. Periodic yellow levels may be
acceptable.
• RED indicates the signal is clipping and will
sound distorted.

Livemix makes it easy to name each channel. It is
covered here as part of a quick setup and further in
the CS-DUO User Guide.
1. PRESS and HOLD on a channel cell on the
touchscreen to select a channel to edit.
2. PRESS and HOLD the top bar with the channel
number.
3. ENTER the channel name on the touchscreen.
4. PRESS Done or continue to the next channel
with the Next Channel button to the right of the
entry box.
5. The name will now show up on all the CS-DUOs
in the system.
Once the Livemix system is setup and channels
have been named, it is a good practice to Save
the Global Settings. The Global Templates
differ from the Saved Personal Mixes in that
Global Templates store only the Channel
Names, Channel Effect settings, and Global
information. Saving a Global Template allows
recall of band or team names and settings.
Saving a Global Template
1. PRESS Mix Tools on the touchscreen.
2. PRESS Global Setup.
3. PRESS Global Template Load/Save.
4. SELECT a location to save the template.
5. PRESS Save Selected Global Template.
6. PRESS Yes to conrm save.
7. ENTER Template Name.
8. PRESS Done.
Loading a Global Template
1. To Load a saved Global Template, follow
steps 1-3 above.
2. PRESS the slot of the Template you wish to
load.
3. PRESS Load Selected Global Template.
Some performers may need help with their
mix. With MirrorMix, any personal mixer can
control any other mixer while hearing what
the remote performer is hearing. You can also
Load a mix from the local unit onto the remote
unit. Please consult the CS-DUO User Guide
for detailed MirrorMix information.
To MIRRORMIX a remote CS-DUO
1. PRESS Mix Tools on the touchscreen.
2. PRESS MirrorMix.
3. SELECT the Port and Mix to MirrorMix. The
Port corresponds to the Ports on the MIX-
16/32 with A being the A mix and B being
the B mix.
4. The orange screens indicate you are mixing
a remote personal mixer.
5. PRESS the gray X at the bottom of the
Channel Overview screen to exit.
The 1/8” front panel and 1/4” back panel
connections are mirrored (in parallel). The system
can be set up for balanced mono or stereo
output, but not both at the same time.
