Theatre mode
3RIVAGE PM series V2.5 Supplemental Manual
This mode is suitable for use in theatres. It enables you to store EQ and dynamics settings in four
banks and assign one of those banks to each actor on stage.
In Theatre mode, EQ or dynamics parameter settings are not stored in each scene. Only information
regarding which bank is used will be stored. Therefore, fine adjustments made while using Theatre
mode will be applied to the appropriate settings in scenes that use the same bank. You don’t need to
use the Global Paste function to update the settings.
You can view and manage these four banks for each actor in the actor library, which makes it easy to
switch double-cast actors or accommodate a sudden cast substitution.
Channel libraries in Theatre mode include all four bank settings. Channel EQ and dynamics settings
configured in Default mode cannot be used in Theatre mode. Similarly, settings configured in
Theatre mode cannot be used in Default mode.
NOTE
In Preview mode, EQ and dynamics parameter settings are not applicable.
■To switch to Theatre mode:
1. Press the SETUP button to access the SETUP screen.
2. Press the MAINTENANCE button to access the MAINTENANCE popup window.
3. Press the UNIT MODE tab.
4. Press the THEATRE button to change the mode.
A popup confirmation window appears, informing you that the control surface will be
rebooted after the mode is switched.
5. Press the OK button.

3. Configure and/or edit a desired actor library as necessary.
NOTE
• The CH COPY function will not copy any channel-related actor libraries. The CH MOVE function will
move a actor library.
• Input EQ library and dynamics library are shared by Default mode and Theatre mode. However, the
EQ and dynamics parameter settings for the input channel library are not shared by both modes.
Therefore, in Theatre mode, the EQ and dynamics parameters for input channels will be excluded
from being the target of a recall operation.

■Supplemental information regarding the DSP mirroring operation on the
Dante audio network
If the primary (active) DSP engine fails, the secondary (standby) DSP engine will automatically take
over all input/output patches for the TWINLANe network, and the audio will continue seamlessly.
However, the secondary DSP engine will not take over the patches for the Dante audio network.
Consequently, you need to configure these patches separately.
Configure input patches in advance to the Dante cards (HY144-D, HY144-D-SRC) installed in HY
SLOT3 on both active and standby DSP engines. Assign a unique control ID to active and standby
DSP engines. In addition, apply the same With Recall settings to both DSP engines.
Configure output patches from the Dante cards (HY144-D, HY144-D-SRC, Dante MY16-AUD
card) that are installed on the RPio622/222.
These settings will prevent audio input/output and HA control from being interrupted even when a
failover occurs, and the audio will continue seamlessly.
Please note that the Dante patches for the Dante card (HY144-D, HY144-D-SRC) inserted in the
standby DSP engine cannot be configured in advance. Prepare a Dante preset separately and switch
it over manually after a failover occurs.
Also, HA control is possible only from a Dante card (HY144-D, HY144-D-SRC) installed in HY
SLOT 3 on the DSP engine.

Improved screen encoder operation
10 RIVAGE PM series V2.5 Supplemental Manual
You can now use the screen encoders to edit EQ and dynamics parameters on the SELECTED
CHANNEL VIEW screen.
The encoder numbers displayed on the screen correspond to the actual screen encoder numbers.
In SENDS ON FADER mode, the channel on/off status is now indicated in the channel name display
area on the panel.
HY SLOT4 (HY SLOT3 on the CSD-R7) now supports input/output patches.
Due to this improvement, output channels are now patched via the OUTPUT tab, not on the
RECORDING tab.
When you modify input patches, you can now select TAKE FROM PORT or TAKE FROM
CHANNEL. If you select TAKE FROM PORT, the HA parameter settings retained by the patched
port will be used as is. If you select TAKE FROM CHANNEL, the HA parameter settings retained by
the input channel will be copied to the destination port.
