Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Millennia
Media HV-316 Remote-Controllable Microphone
Preamplifier.
We will refer to both the HV-316/8 8-Channel
and HV-316 16-Channel as the HV-316 unless
there is an operational difference.
The HV-316 is the result of meticulous blind listening
tests on innumerable circuit topologies and E/M
designs. Your HV-316 is a finely tuned instrument
intended for critical professional applications —we
feel it offers the world's most sonically neutral
microphone preamplification.
Up to 16 HV-316s can be simultaneously controlled
plus an additional 16 HV-3Rs –a total of 384
channels on one system. A high-speed Ethernet
control interface makes this possible without any
significant system control latency, even if all 384
channels were to change parameters simultaneously.
Future Update: The MIDI control interface is
compatible with Avid’s Pro Tools®“PRE” remote
microphone preamplifier protocol. As defined by
Avid, up to 4 HV-316 (8 HV-316/8) units can be
simultaneously controlled with MIDI in Pro Tools.

Safety Precautions
For your safety and the safety of others, be sure to
read and understand all safety and operational
instructions before attempting to use the HV-316.
WARNING: The HV-316 internal circuitry carries
lethal voltages. Carefully observe all warnings,
precautions, and instructions on the HV-316 and as
described in the instructions supplied with the unit.
Water, Moisture, and Spillage –Do not attempt
to use the HV-316 in, near, or around water or in
unusually moist environments, such as near a sink or
swimming pool. Prevent liquids or any other
materials or objects from spilling or falling into the

ventilation on both sides of the HV-316 and avoid
blocking the fan air intake and exit vents.
Power Sources & Power Cord Protection –The
HV-316 Power Supply should be connected to a
power source only of the type described in the
operating instructions or as marked on the Power
Supply. Route the power cord so that it is not likely
to be walked on or pinched by having objects placed
on it. Pay particular attention to plugs, receptacles,
and the point where the AC power cord exits the
HV-316.
Grounding –For your safety, it is extremely
important that the grounding pin of the 3-wire power
cable (included with 110 Volt units) be inserted into
a grounding type 3-pin power outlet. If you are
unable to insert the plug into an existing outlet,
contact an electrician to install a properly grounded
3-pin power outlet, preferably that with OFI / GFI
protection, if available.
Damage Requiring Service –This unit should be
repaired or serviced by qualified personnel
whenever:
•The AC power cord has been damaged, or
•Objects have fallen or liquid has spilled into
any HV-316 unit, or
•The unit does not function properly or
exhibits a marked change in performance,
or
•The unit has been abused, dropped, or
damaged, or
•The unit has been exposed to rain or
moisture.
Servicing –Lethal voltages are found inside the
HV-316 chassis. The user should not attempt to
repair or service this unit. All servicing and/or repairs
should be referred to Millennia.
If, after reading all instructions, precautions, and
warnings, you have remaining questions, please
contact Millennia directly before attempting to use
your HV-316.
The HV-316 enclosure measures approximately 17”
wide x 1.75” high x 16” deep and is designed for
mounting into a standard 1U, 19” equipment rack. If
the HV-316 is mounted in a road case or other rack
which is prone to strong vibration or shock, it is
highly recommended that the rear of the HV-316 be
supported or otherwise reinforced to withstand such
conditions.
HV-316 is designed on a common ground topology.
For high quality operation, and for your own safety
and the safety of others, do not defeat the power
cord earth grounding pin.

HV-316 Front-End Protection –Millennia Music &
Media Systems enjoys a reputation for what many
top engineers and producers call the world’s most
musically accurate and dynamically uniform
microphone preamplifier —the HV-3. But this
thoroughbred design is not achieved without certain
operating criteria. To maintain top performance and
protect the HV-316’s sensitive HV-3 front-end, it is
advised that you do not insert or extract
microphones with phantom power on. Get in the
habit of waiting about ten seconds for the phantom
power to fully “ramp down” before inserting or
removing a microphone. This is good advice for
protecting your microphone investments, as well.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved
by MILLENNIA MEDIA, FPC (Millennia) could void
your authority to operate this equipment under the
EC, ICAN, or FCC rules.
Copyright –You acknowledge that no title to the

Getting Started
Millennia’s Ælogic software (Windows 10 only, other
versions may work but are not supported) is used to
control the unit and should be installed on your
computer before connecting the HV-316 to the
network. It can be downloaded at Ælogic Software
Scroll down to the Downloads section.
Installing the Ælogic Software –Turn off virus
protection software before installing. Remember to
turn the protection software on when finished.
You need to allow Ælogic all permissions to access
your network. Failing to do so will prevent the
software from seeing the Millennia Preamps
connected.
If you are using Wi-Fi®, turn it off and use the wired
Ethernet connection to be sure all the permissions
are applied to it so you connect the HV-316 directly
to your computer to initialize its IP address.

Setting Unit ID(s) and IP Addresses –Each
HV-316 needs to be set to its own unique Unit ID
and IP address. If units have the same ID or IP
addresses there will be a conflict and the system will
not work properly.
Set the Unit ID using the Address Select Rotary
Switch on the rear panel before connecting the HV-
316 to the computer or network.
The table below is a suggested addressing scheme.

(TCL/IPv4)
4. Select “Use the following IP addresses”.
5. Enter 192.168.1.200 in IP Address.
6. Enter 255.255.255.0 in Subnet mask.
7. Click OK and continue to exit Network
Connections.
8. Connect the Host Computer directly to the
HV-316’s Ethernet Port
9. Run the Ælogic Software.

Millennia Media HV-316 page 8 of 17
If you have everything set correctly when Ælogic
opens, the icon of the HV-316’s Unit ID in the Unit
Status window will turn green. Double click on it to
open the Unit Status dialog box.
Set the HV-316 IP address and click OK
You will lose connection if you select an IP
Address other than 192.168.1.xxx and will need
to change your computer’s IP Address to access the
network that you have chosen to use your HV-316s.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is
also an option for “IP Address”, but we don’t
recommend using it unless you are familiar with
networking and have the proper network hardware
that supports it.
Ethernet and MIDI control cannot be used
simultaneously –only one remote control protocol
can be used in an HV-316 network.
Default Settings –The HV-316 is shipped to
startup with the default settings:
•All functions turned off (POL, PAD, 48V,
MUTE, SPLIT, SAFE, RBN and HPF).
•IP Address set to 192.168.1.221
•Netmask 255.255.255.0
•Unit ID 1

Ælogic Operation
Millennia’s Ælogic remote control software is
intuitive. What follows is an in-depth description of
its available functions. Refer to Appendix for a list of
keyboard shortcuts.
Unit Status Window –The example screen above
shows a Unit Status window in which seven HV-316
units (112 channels) are connected to the remote
network. The Unit Status window displays an icon of
each HV-316 unit on the network. The status of each
HV-316 is represented by its icon’s color code, as
follows:
Red Icon –“Unit ID Has a Conflict with Another
Unit”. If two or more HV-316s share the same Unit
ID number or IP address, their icons will turn red
and will show identical IDs or IP addresses until the
conflict is resolved.
Setting a Unit ID or IP address must be done locally
on each HV-316. Other errors could also cause a red
icon, such as over-temperature, power supply out of
range, other networking errors, etc.
Green Icon –“Functioning Normally”. Remote unit
functioning normally.
Flashing Green Icon –HV-3R only. “Functioning
Normally, Local Mode”. Remote unit is functioning
normally but is in the local mode.
HV-3R only: if the unit is in Local mode when Ælogic
is started, it won’t appear. Be sure to change the
unit to Remote mode so the software can recognize
the HV-3R.
Purple Icon –“Unit ID Is Offline”. A unit was
previously connected to the network and set to this
Unit ID but is missing from the network. It was
either turned off or the Ethernet was disconnected or
both.
Blue Icon –The Redundant Power Supply is
powering the unit and the internal power supply is
offline due to either failing or losing AC mains power.
Gray Icon –“Unit ID Is Inactive”. No unit is
connected to the network and set to this Unit ID.
Unit ID Conflict –If more than one unit has the
same ID number this warning will
appear. You must correct the
problem before you can continue.
Unit Status Dialog –Double left mouse click on
any icon brings up that unit’s Unit Status dialog box
displaying the following information:
1. Unit Functionality
2. 48v Monitor (HV-3R)
3. 24v Monitor (HV-3R)
4. 5v Monitor (HV-3R)
5. 3.3v Monitor (HV-3R)
6. Temperature

Overview

Page 11 of 17 rev 103020 Millennia Media HV-316
Unit Naming and Unit Name Dialog Box
(right-click on unit name) –Each Unit’s name is
shown above its eight-channel grouping. The default
name for each unit is its Unit ID. For instance, “UNIT
1”corresponds with channels 1-16 and “UNIT 2”
corresponds with channels 17-32. Right-clicking on
the Unit Name area opens the Unit Name dialog
(shown above) which allows textual naming of that
unit. A section for notes is also available to include
any supplementary information about the unit.
In order to name multiple units quickly, the “Prev”
and “Next” buttons allow the user to scroll through
units without closing the dialog box. If a unit has
been re-named from the default, the new Unit Name
will now be displayed in the Unit Name box. The
Naming Window can also be accessed from the
pull-down menus (Edit>Unit Naming).
Channel Strip Display and Functions
Channel Number –Channel numbers appear at the
top of the channel strip.
The preamp (HV-316) with Unit ID 1 will be assigned
channels 1-16. Unit ID 2 will be assigned channels
17-32 etc. The HV-316/8 and HV-3R are assigned 8
channels. Each HV-316 8-ch group is assigned “A” or
“B”.
POLarity Flip –Inverts channel audio output polarity
(180 degrees). The channel’s output waveform
becomes a mirror of the input signal. This is not a
“phase adjustment” as the output signal does not
shift in time relative to the input signal. Button
illuminates green.
PAD –Attenuates channel output by 20 dB (14 dB
HV-3R).The gain setting reflects the change.
Button illuminates green.
48V –Applies 48-volt phantom power to the
respective mic input channel. Phantom power is
applied equally to both pin 2 and pin 3 of that
channel’s mic input. Button illuminates yellow. You
must disable RBN before 48V can be enabled.
Caution –do not insert or extract a mic with
the phantom power on. It can damage the
microphone and/or the preamp input
MUTE –Mutes channel output. When channel is
muted, the meter will continue to operate allowing
the user to view audio activity on that channel
without passing live audio. Mute parameter is
linkable. Button illuminates red.
Channel Gain Faders/Gain Display –A traditional
looking “mixer fader” that adjusts preamp channel
gain. A text box below the fader indicates the actual
channel gain setting in decibels.
HV-316 gain range is 1 dB to 64 dB (HV-3R gain
range is 8 dB to 69 dB with 80 dB optional). Gain is
segmented in 1 dB steps. The Up and Down
keyboard arrow keys can also be used to adjust the
channel gain in 1dB steps.
Meter Preferences Dialog –The Meter Preferences
dialog box provides for customization of meter
display and functions.
You can select Meter Scale as dBu (usually for an
analog system) or dBFS, typically for digital systems.
Peak Hold Time affects the numerical level
indicator above the meter and the floating line over
it.
SPLIT –Future update: For the HV-316/8 and HV-
316 only. Provides two Dante outputs per channel,
this turns on the split’s gain compensation to provide
an inverted (constant) level (within +/- 12dB) of the
channel. Typically used to split signals between FOH
console and stage monitor console.
SAFE –The channel is not modified when a new
scene is loaded. All settings remain as they
currently are.
RBN –Turns off the 48V phantom power and DC-
couples the mic to the gain stage. Use with any
Ribbon or Dynamic mic (like an SM-57). A mic
requiring phantom power will not work in this mode.
You must disable 48V before RBN can be enabled.
HPF –High Pass Filter, when engaged, is -3dB
down at 80Hz, with 6 dB per octave roll off.

Millennia Media HV-316 page 12 of 17
Link Assignment –The Link parameter provides a
Gain and Mute linking utility. Linking applies to Gain
and Mute parameters only; no other parameters are
linkable.
The LINK button links and unlinks a channel from a
selected “link group”. There are ten selectable link
groups that can be chosen from the drop-down box
next to the LINK button or the Link Matrix. When a
link group is chosen, the LINK button is
automatically selected and illuminates red. One link
group can be assigned per channel. If no link group
is selected, a depressed LINK switch will effectively
do nothing.
Linked Gain –Linked Gain faders move together
maintaining the same distance they had when first
linked together. Once one fader reaches the upper or
lower extreme, the other faders in the same link
group stop moving in that direction.
Linked Gains can be trimmed by holding down the
Alt key while using the left mouse button. When the
Alt key is released, the channel reverts to linked
mode.
Linked Mute –Linked Mute parameters will turn on
and off together unless “Mute linked channels” is
unchecked in the Preferences dialog box (Setup>
Preferences>“Mute linked channels”). If this box is
unchecked, the mute parameters will act
independently just like the other parameters.
Scribble Strip –(right-click on scribble strip)
A text box in which channels can be named and
notes can be written and stored. See the screenshot
on the previous page.
To name multiple channels quickly, “Prev” and
“Next” buttons allow the user to scroll through
channels without closing the dialog box. If a channel
has been re-named from the default, the new
Channel Name will now be displayed in the Unit
Name box. The Naming Window can also be
accessed from the pull-down menus (Edit>Channel
Naming).
Link Matrix
The Link Matrix dialog box provides for easier linking
and unlinking of channels and can be accessed via
shortcut ctrl-L or from the pull-down menus
(Edit>Link).
•Name a Link Group by right clicking a Link
Group number.
•See the members of a group by double clicking
the group’s name.
•Right click a link to bring up the channel naming
dialog box.

Scene Window
The Scene Window is found in the upper left corner
of the screen. A Scene remembers and recalls all
parameters of the current software environment
(gains, mutes, links, etc.). Scenes are used for
applications such as concerts or stage plays in which
new acts or set changes require different microphone
gains, mutes, links, metering, etc.
There are a few physical aspects to the scene
window worth noting before creating new scenes and
projects:
“Active Scene: ###” –The active scene number
displays the number of the scene that is currently
active.
Scene Name Display –Just below the active scene
number is a text display that defaults to “Blank
Scene.” This area displays the user designated name
of the currently active scene.
“000 Blank Scene” –The default scene that is
automatically opened when the Ælogic is first loaded
or when a Project, New or Saved, is opened. The
Blank Scene is to be used as a null starting point.
Selecting scene 000 will force all parameters of all
networked units to their “off” or “lowest” settings.
This default scene cannot be overwritten.
The Scene List –Scenes are arranged sequentially
within the Scene Window (000, 001, 002, etc.). The
Scene List is a scrollable list of all Scenes within the
Scene Window. Left-clicking a Scene Number/Name
will highlight it. No system functions will change until
the Recall button is clicked or until the desired scene
is double-clicked.
Project and Scene Management
Creating a Project –Before anything (new scenes,
changes to scenes, etc.) can be saved, a project
itself must be created by doing a Save. Use
File>Save to name the Project and find a location to
save it. File>Save (ctrl-S) will save any updates or
changes to the project unless a new name is desired
(use File>Save As (shift+ctrl S)).
Scene Window –Underneath the Scene Window
there are four buttons “Recall”, “New”, “Delete”,
and “Lock.” The functions of these buttons are
explained below.
Safety Prompts –In order to exercise caution when
using the Scene Window Functions, safety prompts
are available in case buttons are pressed
accidentally. Safety prompts can be enabled for:
•New Scene
•Recall Scene
•Scene Delete
•Scene Re-Ordering
To turn safety prompts on and off go to
“Edit>Preferences” in the pull-down menus. The
section labeled “Scene Prompts” will have check
boxes for the four choices.
Creating New Scenes –Scenes are created by
using the “New” button below the scene window.
Once this button is pressed the “Enter Scene Name”
dialog box appears.
The scene name can be entered in the upper text
box and a section for Notes is also available to
include any supplementary information about the
scene. Once the scene is named it will be appended
to the Scene Window (next available scene number).
A newly created scene will assume all parameters
and settings of the active scene. Creating or naming
a scene does not make it active. Only Recall or
double-clicking can activate a scene.
Renaming Scenes –Once scenes are created, they
can be renamed by right-clicking on them. A dialog
box labeled “Rename Scene” will appear with the
same choices as the “Enter Scene Name” dialog box.
Reordering Scenes –Scenes are moved by
left-clicking and dragging them to the desired
location. Once a scene is moved, Ælogic will
automatically update the numbers in front of each
scene name.
Recalling Scenes –Scenes can be recalled two
different ways:
1. Highlight the desired scene and click the “Recall”
button.
2. Double click the scene name.
The scene’s parameters will be transmitted to all
of the units on the network.

Millennia Media HV-316 page 14 of 17
Scenes are not saved until you save the
project. (see Saving Scene Changes below for
information on how to save a scene)
Deleting Scenes –Scenes can also be deleted two
different ways: either highlighting the desired scene
and pressing the “Delete” button or highlighting it
and pressing the delete key on the keyboard.
Be careful when deleting scenes as the “Undo”
function does not work on deleted scenes.
When a scene is deleted, higher scene numbers will
automatically decrement. If an attempt to delete the
currently Active Scene is made, a prompt will pop up
explaining that it is active and cannot be deleted.
Locking Scene Window Functions –Sometimes it
may be necessary to disable the functions of the
Scene Window. The “Lock” button serves this
purpose. When the button is engaged, the other
three functions will turn dark grey and will no longer
be functional. Parameters in the Control Section
(faders, Links, function buttons, etc.) will still be
functional.
Appending and Saving Scenes –Whenever a
change is made to any parameter or function, an
asterisk (*) will appear next to the active scene in
the Scene Window (with the exception of the Blank
Scene). The asterisk will remain visible until the
Project is saved. The asterisk indicates a “dirty
event” – meaning that changes have been made
since the last Project save.
Saving Scene Changes –All Scenes shown in the
Scene Window are saved each time the Project is
saved (File>Save OR ctrl-S). Any changes to a
Scene (a “dirty event”) will be lost if the Project is
not saved before recalling another Project or if the
Project is not saved before exiting the GUI.
Loss of Power –If the HV-316 loses power or
ÆLogic crashes it will come back online with the
parameters set the same as when it went off except
parameters Link, Safe and Split will be off.

Diagnostics –Check the IP Address, Flash the
display and shows the IP addresses and state of all
connected units
Setup System Status –shows the IP address and
state of all connected units
Soft Reset –Allows you to select a unit and reset it
to a state where all buttons are off and channel gain
is set to minimum.
Restart Program –Restarts ÆLogic
