DiGiCo’s latest software update, V2.6, for its S Series consoles delivers a number of significant new features. These include control of the A164D Wall LCD and A168D Stage for networked audio in installations via the Dante 64@96 DMI, and support for the acclaimed DMI-KLANG, both of which were launched at this year’s ISE show in Amsterdam.
The release of V2.6 also sees the addition of an RTA (Real Time Analyser) added to the channel EQ view of S Series consoles, which can be toggled to be shown/hidden using the button in the top bar. The RTA meters are taken post-EQ, meaning that any adjustments in EQ are reflected in the RTA’s metering.
Under the global scopes view (accessible from the Snapshot list view), there is now a separate scope for Control Group names, which enables Control Group names and Channel names (for input, aux, group and matrix channels) to be selected separately. Both sets of name scopes will follow that state of the ‘name’ scope for sessions created in older software versions, which means that functionality remains unchanged.
There is also the option to disable the double-tap to flatten the EQ band, Control Group Spill set can now be recalled with presets, and the default value for Control Group Faders is Now to 0 dB
“As with everything we do, these updates are driven by requests from our customers,” says Roger Wood, DiGiCo’s head of software. “These updates are designed to provide an even better user experience and fulfil the requirements of an increasingly sophisticated market.”
