INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this Studiomaster product. The digiLiVE 4C and 8C are compact,
easy to use yet sophisticated, digital mixing consoles that will enhance your performance and
give you trouble-free use for years to come.
Ergonomic and lightweight design, ultra-reliable build quality and an innovative hardware and
HTML web-style user interface make the digiLiVE 4C and 8C a pleasure to mix with, freeing
you up to concentrate on the show and not on the technology!
THE USER GUIDE
The Studiomaster design philosophy has always been to provide the controls and features
the user needs, thereby reducing clutter and making operation intuitive.
Although the digiLiVE 4C and 8C are significantly easier to operate than most digital mixing
consoles, we highly recommend that you take the time to read this User Guide and
familiarise yourself with the controls to get the best out of your new mixer. As well as the
practical hints, this guide also contains important safety information.
This User Guide is designed to help you to get going with your digiLiVE 4C or 8C as quickly
as possible. It will take you on a tour through the operational features of these two mixers
explaining in detail the function of each input, output, knob and switch. Having done that, the
Guide will then show you how to control each and every function of your digiLiVE console
via Wi-Fi, by using an integrated HTML-based digiLiVE control application that operates
through a web browser running on any computer or Android/iOS tablet logged into the
digiLiVE network access point.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ THESE BEFORE YOU USE YOUR PRODUCT
1. Before connecting the A.C. power cord make sure the digiLiVE operating
voltage is suitable for your local supply: 100-240V AC 50/60Hz.
2. Only use the A.C. power cord / mains lead and universal voltage power supply
supplied with this product. Replace it if it becomes damaged in any way.
3. Never operate without, or remove the safety ground (earth) from the A.C.
power cord / mains lead.
4. Do not attempt to remove any screws or panels. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
5. Do not operate the unit next to heat sources such as radiators.
6. The unit should not be operated or stored near rain or moisture.
7. This equipment must not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no
objects filled with liquids should be placed on top of it.
WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED (GROUNDED)

5
NOTE: It is always best practice to turn on interconnected audio devices in sequence. In this
case, turn your digiLiVE on first, and then turn on your powered loudspeakers or power
amplifier(s). Whenpowering down, turn the speakers or amplifier off first, then turn digiLiVE
off. Following this sequence will avoid nasty loud bangs or thumps from the loudspeakers.
Unpacking Your digiLiVE
When you unpack your digiLiVE console you will find the following:
1. digiLiVE console
2. Console Power Supply Unit (PSU)
3. IEC power cable
4. Wi-Fi network access point dongle (normally plugged into the rear panel USB 2.0
connector)
Powering Your digiLiVE
Your digiLiVE is powered from the 12 V DC power supply (PSU) packed separately in the
carton. DO NOT use any other PSU: your warranty will be invalidated if you do. Connect the
PSU to the AC mains supply with the cable supplied. The digiLIVE power supply can operate
on mains voltages from 100 V to 240 V. When the PSU is connected to AC mains, a blue
LED on the PSU lights. The DC output cable should be plugged in to the 12V/DC INPUT
socket on digiLiVE’s rear panel. A red LED next to the input socket illuminates to confirm that
power is reaching the digiLiVE.
Once the PSU is connected, press and hold the front panel Power Button for three seconds
to turn the digiLiVE on. The power button will start flashing green whilst the digiLiVE powers
up and runs through its self-test and start-up procedures. The power button will turn solid
green when the digiLiVE comes fully on-line and operational. This start-up sequence takes
approximately 30 seconds to complete.
A long press (more than 3 seconds) when the console is ON turns it off
A long press (more than 3 seconds) when the console is OFF switches it back on
Whenever digiLiVE powers down, all current console settings are saved. Next time you
power it up, digiLiVE will have exactly the same settings as it had when you last switched it
off.

FRONT PANEL
The digiLiVE 4C features two mono Mic/Line input channels (each with combination
XLR/TRS jack connectors and switchable phantom power); stereo Left and Right line-level
inputs (TRS jack or stereo minijack); and one stereo USB Input for music playback (mp3 or
WAV files). Two balanced XLR stereo Mix Outputs (Left and Right) allow you to connect to
active loudspeakers or to a power amplifier and loudspeakers. Two separate internal busses
feed the two onboard effects (REVerb and DELay). One auxiliary output (AUX1) is provided
to enable you either to connect to an active loudspeaker or to a power amplifier and
loudspeaker combination to provide stage monitoring or an additional mix output, or to feed
an external effects unit whose output could be returned to the digiLiVE via the analogue
stereo L-R inputs. A stereo Headphone output provides local monitoring of inputs and
outputs. One Footswitch jack allows you to connect a footswitch to switch the delay and
reverb on and off.

7
The digiLiVE 8C features 6 mono Mic/line input channels (each with XLR/TRS jack
combination connectors and switchable phantom power); stereo Left and Right line-level
inputs (TRS jack or stereo minijack); and one stereo USB Input for music playback (mp3 or
WAV files). Two balanced XLR stereo Mix Outputs (Left and Right) allow you to connect to
active loudspeakers or to a power amplifier and loudspeakers. Two separate internal busses
(FX1 and FX2) feed the onboard effects (REVerb and DELay) and two auxiliary outputs
(AUX1 and AUX 2) are provided to enable you to create separate stage monitor mixes
and/or additional front of house (FOH) mixes. Alternatively, you could use these outputs to
feed external effects units whose outputs could be returned to the digiLiVE either through
the analogue stereo L-R input or via one or two mic/line inputs. A stereo Headphone output
provides local monitoring of inputs and outputs. Two Footswitch jacks allow you to connect
two footswitches to switch FX on and off.
INPUTS
Mic
These XLR/TRS jack combination inputs can accept microphone (XLR) and line-level (TRS
jack) signals. These inputs feed analogue preamplifiers capable of delivering 60dB of gain,
which is controlled by rotary Gain knobs. The position of these knobs cannot be stored or
recalled as part of a console scene.
The XLR inputs can each supply individually-switchable 48V phantom power for condenser
microphones. This means that you can switch off phantom power to an input and safely plug
in XLR microphone-level inputs from DI boxes, external preamplifiers etc. A good rule of
thumb is to only switch on phantom power when it is required. A Red LED on each channel
indicates that phantom power is active on that channel. On the digiLiVE 4C the phantom
power is switched via hidden switch that can be accessed with a paperclip or similar tool.

8
Stereo Input
The L-R Stereo Input TRS jacks are balanced, line-level analogue inputs suitable for
connecting keyboards or external preamplifiers and effects units. The minijack input is an
unbalanced stereo input suitable for connecting the audio outputs of computers, mobile
devices and mp3 players. Inserting jack plugs into the TRS stereo input jacks disables the
minijack input.
USB 2.0 (Music) Input
This input is intended primarily for the connection of a USB “thumb” drive or a USB Hard Disk
Drive (HDD). If no other USB device is connected it may also be used to connect the
supplied digiLiVE Wi-Fi dongle.
If a USB drive containing mp3 and/or WAV audio files is inserted into this input, pressing the
Play/Pause button starts a sequential playback of the audio files and the button will illuminate
to indicate that playback is taking place. Pressing the Play/Pause button again will pause
playback and the button illumination will go out to indicate that playback is paused.
The digiLiVE is also capable of recording the console’s main output to a stereo WAV file on
a USB thumb or HDD drive connected to this input.
OUTPUTS
AUXOutputs
These two outputs (one only in digiLiVE 4C) allow you to send mixes to active loudspeakers
or to power amplifier and loudspeaker combinations in order to provide on-stage monitoring
and/or an additional FOH feed. The mix to these outputs cannot be controlled from the
digiLiVE front panel. On the HTML control app the Aux mix is controlled by faders on each
input channel and on the output of each internal effect.
Since these outputs can be routed to the L-R Mix Output, they can also be used either as two
separate mono subgroups or as a stereo pair. However, any Aux output routed to the L-R Mix
as a subgroup should not be used as either a stage monitor or auxiliary FOH mix.
Main Mix Outputs
As their name implies, these two balanced XLR connectors carry the main audio outputs
from your digiLiVE mixer. In normal use, the output from each input channel and both
internal effects is routed to the Main Mix outputs. You can create the actual audio mix using
the level controls for each channel and effect output, either by using the Channel encoders
on the front panel of the digiLiVE or via the virtual channel faders on its integrated HTML
control app. This app can be accessed via any web browser running under Windows, Mac
OS, Linux, Android or iOS and connected to the digiLiVE through the wireless dongle
network access point.
Headphone Output
A single stereo headphone socket with its own volume control allows you to monitor the Main
Mix outputs through headphones. In addition, you can listen to an individual input or output
by selecting it using the left-hand Channel Encoder as explained in the Front Panel Controls
section of this manual.

9
FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
The digiLiVE 4C and 8C hardware controls are minimalist, simple and intuitive, and allow
you to access the essential gain, 4-band EQ, level, compressor, pan/balance and stereo mix
input and output console functions directly, and virtually instantly, from the front panel.
Channel Controls
The Channel Controls consist of two large rotary encoders with “press to click” functionality.
The Left-Hand Channel Encoder allows you to select and access an individual input and
output by clicking it to cycle sequentially across the console from left to right (Channel 1 to
Main Mix). Once an input or output has been selected, a green LED below the Channel or
Output ID Label indicates that it is active and can be controlled.
Turning the left-hand channel encoder clockwise causes it to act as a fader to increase the
output volume of the selected input or output, and turning it counter-clockwise reduces it. A
concentric ring of green LEDs around the encoder indicates the fader position, which is
reflected in the HTML control application.
Once an input or output has been selected, clicking and holding down the left-hand encoder
turns on its Listen function which mutes all other inputs and outputs in the headphones and
allows you to “solo” the selected source (listen to it on its own).
A 4-colour Signal LED sitting beneath this encoder indicates the instantaneous signal level of
the selected input or output. No LED indicates that no signal is present, Blue indicates that
the signal is below the level necessary for good signal-to-noise ratio, Green that the signal
level is healthy, Orange that the signal level is heading towards distortion, but is still
undistorted, and Red that the signal is in imminent danger of distortion.
Clicking the Right-Hand Channel Encoder allows you to sequentially select between each
of the four EQ bands, the Compressor threshold level and the Pan/Balance control for the
active input or output. A red LED indicates the selected parameter. Turning this encoder
clockwise will increase the level of the selected parameter. In the case of the Pan/Balance
control it will pan a mono signal, or shift the balance of a stereo signal, to the right. Turning it
counterclockwise will decrease the parameter level, or pan or balance a stereo signal to the
left. The concentric ring of green LEDs around this encoder are only active in Pan/Balance
mode, where it indicates the deviation left or right from the centre position.
Please Note: Press and hold this encoder to switch the Mute Group function On & Off.
Main Mix Control
The Main Mix Control is a large rotary encoder with “press to click” functionality.
This encoder controls the volume level of the L-R Mix Output, turning it clockwise increases
the output volume, and turning it counter-clockwise decreases the output volume. Clicking
this encoder once mutes the Mix Output and illuminates the red Mute LED that sits beneath
this encoder. Clicking it again unmutes the Main Mix output.
The twin-ladder LED peak meter that sits next to the Main Mix control displays the
instantaneous Main Mix output volume level.

10
digiLiVE HTML CONTROL APPLICATION
HTML App Access – Wi-Fi
Since it is hosted on the digiLiVE itself, accessing the HTML Control application is simply a
matter of logging onto the digiLiVe’s 2G wireless network.
1. Ensure that the Wi-Fi dongle supplied with your digiLiVE console is plugged into one
of the two USB 2.0 connectors (the rear panel one is recommended).
2. Scan for wireless networks on your computer or mobile device and select the digiLiVE
network to connect to – which will be either DIGI4_XXXXX or DIGI8_XXXXX
depending on your digiLiVE model. There is no network password set as default, but
this can be changed in the Settings screen.
3. Open a web browser and navigate to 10.10.2.1 – the Channels screen will open.
HTML App Access – LAN
1. Ensure that both your computer and your digiLiVE are connected to the same LAN
2. Open a web browser and navigate to 10.10.1.1 – the Channels screen will open.
A brief recap of this information is printed on the rear panel of your digiLiVE for easy
reference.
Since we believe that most users will run the control app on a mobile device, we will refer to
touching a tab or function rather than clicking on it. If you are running the app on a non-
touchscreen computer, in this guide a touch is equivalent to a click.
IMPORTANT - Please note that, with the factory default network settings, the wireless link to
the digiLive control app will work only with the supplied Wi-Fi dongle. If you wish to connect
to the digiLiVE via another wireless network, access point, router or LAN, you will need to
make the necessary changes to the digiLiVE’s Network Settings.

CHANNELS SCREEN
FULL MODE
Above is a computer screenshot showing the digiLiVE 8C Channels screen when the
control app is running in Full mode, in which all the available faders and sub-page tabs are
displayed. Depending on the screen size you are using, you may see fewer faders. Swiping
left or right, or using the Left-Right Arrow buttons will allow you to access any hidden
faders. The left-hand menu and the channel menu bar above the faders always remain
visible on-screen, giving you one-touch access to each of the control app‘s sub-pages.
Due to screen size restrictions, a mobile phone or similar-sized device displays only the
faders from the Channels screen and gives no access to any sub-menu.
The Channels screen shows you fader position, pan position and signal level for each of the
digiLiVE’s input and output channels. The signal meter can display either Pre-fader or Post-
fader levels, and you make your choice on the Meters sub-page, which is selected from the
left-hand menu.
The larger fader cap and white border around the channel menu bar (see CH6 above)
indicate that a channel is active and can be edited using any of the available module tabs in
the channel menu bar. A function is available if its tab is coloured light-grey. If its tab is dark,
the function is not available.
PLEASE NOTE: Double-tapping an on-screen input or output channel fader or balance
control will reset that fader or balance control to its 0dB or Centre position. The Main
Mix output fader is the major exception to this rule.

12
BASIC MODE
In Basic mode, access to the Monitor tab in the left-hand menu and to the Preamp and
Dynamics tabs in the channel menu bar is removed. In addition, the EQ tab and the
Compressor function from the Dynamics tab are combined into a single EQ/Comp tab.
LOCK MODE
In Lock mode, access to the left-hand menu and to the channel menu bar is removed
entirely. The channel faders remain operative.
You can cycle sequentially through these three modes by repeatedly touching the Mode
button.
Please Note: A long touch (3 seconds) on a channel label will open a pop-up screen
that gives you access to several different channel label background colour options.

16
MIC DYNAMICS SUB-PAGE (Touch Tab to Open)
The Dynamics consist of a gate and a separate compressor
①Change Input
Press the arrow-buttons to select the previous or next input.
②Gate
Single press IN to enable the Gate (button turns green), press again to disable it (button
goes dark). Default is disabled.
The Gate Response Curve is split into 3 parts – Attack (left), Hold (middle) and Release
(right) – each of which has its own on-screen control fader.
③Gate Parameter Adjustment
You can adjust the Gate’s parameters on-screen by selecting and dragging the
corresponding fader.
Threshold adjusts the Gate’s threshold in the range from -80dB to 0dB. Default is -80dB.
Any signals lower than the threshold will be reduced by the value set on the Depth fader. The
Gate Response is determined by the times set on the Attack, Hold and Release faders.
Attack (attack-time) sets the length of time that the gate takes to close after the input signal
falls below the threshold. This time ranges from 0.5ms to 100ms, default is 3ms.
Hold (hold-time) sets the length of time after the signal rises above the threshold before the
gate begins to open. This time can be set between 2ms and 2000ms (2 sec), default is 2ms.
Release (release-time) sets the length of time that the gate takes to open after the end of the
hold period. This parameter can be adjusted from 2ms to 2000ms (2 sec). Default is 350 ms
which is compatible with a wide range of sound sources
Depth: Sets the attenuation of gated signals (those lower than Threshold). Depth ranges
from 0dB to -80dB, default is -80dB.

④Compressor
Single press Bypass to disable the Compressor (button turns yellow). Press again to enable
the Compressor (button goes dark). Default is Bypass.
The Compressor Curve indicates the gain relationship between input signals and output
signals. The curve is split into two parts – below and above the Threshold value.
Any signal below the threshold will pass the compressor virtually unmodified, while signals
above the threshold will be attenuated (i.e. compressed).
⑤Compressor Parameter Adjustment
The Compressor Parameters can be adjusted on-screen by selecting and dragging the
Attack and Release faders and by “turning” (touch and drag) the Compressor rotary control
knob.
The Attack fader adjusts the Attack Time, which ranges from 0.5ms to 100ms. Default is
25ms.
The Release fader adjusts the Release Time, which ranges from 20ms to 5s. Default is
350ms which is compatible with most sound sources.
Turning the Threshold/Ratio rotary control knob in a clockwise direction increases the
amount of compression by decreasing the Threshold level (the point at which compression
begins) and increasing the Compression Ratio. Turning the Compressor knob anticlockwise
reduces the Compression Ratio and increases the Threshold level.
The Threshold level can range from -80dB to 0dB, and the Compression Ratio can range
from 1:1 to 20:1. Default is 1:1.
⑥Library
The Library function allows you to save and load up to 16 User Dynamics presets. Tap the
dropdown button, select a preset from the list and tap OK to load its Dynamics settings. Tap
the Save button and select the desired Library Slot (1 – 16) from the list to save the current
Dynamics settings. A soft keyboard pop-up will appear on screen, allowing you to name the
preset. Finally press Confirm to save the setting or Cancel to abandon.
PLEASE NOTE: On your digiLiVE console, any numerical parameter value that is
controlled by either an on-screen fader or an on-screen rotary control, can also be
entered manually. This is done simply by single-tapping the box containing the
number that you wish to edit, at which point your device’s on-screen keyboard will
appear and allow you to manually enter a number for that parameter value.

18
MIC BUS SEND SUB-PAGE (Touch Tab to Open)
Each input channel can send signals to 2 Mono busses (AUX 1 & AUX 2), 4 FX busses
(REVerb 1&2, DELay 1&2) and Main Mix L-R.
①Change Input
Press the arrow-buttons to select the previous or next input.
②Bus Send
Touch a “Bus Send” button to route the active channel to it (button illuminates), press again
to cancel the routing (button goes dark).
③Pre-Fade/Post-Fade Switch
Touching the button switches the channel send to that bus from Pre-Fade and Post-Fade.
The button ID label changes when touched – from Pre to Post or from Post to Pre.
Sending a channel to a bus Pre-Fade bypasses the channel output fader, which means that
the level being sent to the bus does not change when the position of the channel fader is
adjusted. This is the normal setting for stage monitors. Default is Pre-Fade.
Sending Post-Fade means that the level being sent to the bus changes when the position of
channel fader is changed. Post-Fade sends are normally used as Effects Sends.
④Send Level Faders
Controls the overall level of the signal being sent to the selected bus. This can be changed
by touching and dragging the on-screen fader up and down.

STEREO INPUT (7-8)
The Stereo Input 7-8 input channel contains four individual modules: Preamp, EQ,
Dynamics and Bus Send (which incorporates Aux and Effects send). Touching a module tab
will bring up a sub-page with further options.
①Preamp
Shows the status of Phase Reverse and Input Delay Time.
②EQ
Shows a parametric EQ graph representing the EQ settings.
③Dynamics
Shows a gate and compressor graph.
④Bus Send
Shows send status: the busses being sent to along with its level and Pan value.
Please note that there are differences between the Stereo Input Preamp and EQ modules
and the Preamp and EQ modules of a Mic input.
STEREO INPUT PREAMP SUB-PAGE (Touch Tab to Open)
①Change Input
Press the arrow-buttons to select the previous or next input.
②Phase Reverse
Phase inverts the left side of your stereo signal. In combination with SUM, this can be useful
to cancel out the centre of a stereo recording (usually the vocal track) to create a simple
karaoke effect. Touch the button to enable (button turns green, label changes to “On”), and
touch again to disable (button goes dark, label changes to “Off”). Default is disabled.

③Sum
Sums left and right input, so both sides of the stereo channel will contain the same (mono)
signal. This can also be used to route the signal to both channels in case there is only one
jack plugged into the stereo input. Touch the button to enable (button turns green, label
changes to “On”), and touch again to disable (button goes dark, label changes to “Off).
Default is disabled.
④Input Trim
Allows digital amplification or attenuation of the input signal. Touch the button to enable
(button turns green, label changes to “On”), and touch again to disable (button goes dark,
label changes to “Off”). Default is disabled. Adjust the Trim using the soft-encoder on the
touch screen or the main encoder on the front panel (fine tuning can be activated by pressing
