Topic: TotalMix Fx 1.97 Beta – public preview available Windows/Mac
TotalMix FX 1.96 has just been released, see here:
https://forum.rme-audio.de/viewtopic.php?id=39809
and we are already on to the next update. This time it's not about tons of new features and fixes, but mainly one feature, often ask for in this forum: being able to control our popular 12Mic from TotalMix FX.
This is done via Settings (F3), tab Aux. Devices, which so far only included the OctaMic XTC. It allows one to assign a bank of 8 mic pre channels to an 8-channel bank of ADAT or MADI. One or multiple.
The 12Mic has 12 channels, which didn't fit into this scheme. The changed dialog in 1.97 presents two 4-channel based assignments instead. These easily allow to adress the 12 channels of an 12Mic, or even multiple 12Mics, to TotalMix FX, which will then show a phantom power button, a Gain knob and an AutoSet button in the respective channel settings. Obviously this can be very handy, saving the mic pre state right within a TM FX Snapshot or Workspace.
Supported in Tv 1.97 is not only the 12Mic (and OctaMic XTC), but also 12Mic-D and AVB Tool.
While this release is marked beta, there is no other change to the code than this functionality, so the apps should be safe even for production use. No guarantee, though.
