F EATURES O VERVIEW28This section is a general overview of the deep feature set offered by K-Mix — what they are, what they do,and what can be adjusted. It does not discuss how these features are controlled, it merely provides a briefintroduction. The exact manner in which these features are accessed/adjusted via the K-Mix hardware and theK-Mix Editor will be discussed in the two subsequent sections: K-Mix Hardware and K-Mix Editor.3.1 – S TANDALONE M IXINGK-Mix can function as a traditional standalone mixer; no computer necessary. Power K-Mix via a USB powersupply and you’re good to go. Audio coming into the inputs can leverage K-Mix’s onboard DSP effects andflexible output routing, allowing you to mix your gear wherever there’s access to power.3.2 – USB A UDIO I NTERFACEIn addition to being a standalone mixer, K-Mix can also act as an 8-input, 10-output USB bus-powered audiointerface.• Audio coming into the mixer can be sent up USB to a connected computer for recording or furtherprocessing.• Audio from a connected computer can be sent directly out of K-Mix’s outputs or through K-Mix’s channelstrip effects.• USB pre/post switches allow for flexible routing of USB audio into and out of K-Mix.3.3 – MIDI I/OIn addition to functioning as both a mixer and audio interface, K-Mix speaks MIDI. K-Mix allows for bi-directional MIDI communication with USB host devices (computer, tablet), and with external MIDI hardware(via the optional KMI MIDI Expander). K-Mix is fully capable of both outputting MIDI to control other devices/software, and receiving MIDI for control of its own parameters.• K-Mix features three MIDI banks; each fader, rotary, and button can be set to output completely differentMIDI messages for each bank.• When connected to a computer, MIDI can be sent from the computer to K-Mix for controlling nearly all ofK-Mix’s audio parameters; this allows for fully automating your K-Mix!• When using K-Mix with the optional KMI MIDI Expander, MIDI coming into the Expander can also be usedto control K-Mix’s audio parameters, allowing you to control K-Mix from external MIDI hardware.K-Mix’s MIDI capabilities allow for very powerful, highly customizable interactions. More in-depth informationabout using K-Mix and MIDI together can be found in section 4.3 – MIDI & K-Mix. |
