How Do I Change the Setup of the Console?

One of the exciting features of our Axia Element audio system is the ability to save “preset” choices of channels for various purposes.

Our console has 14 channels, but we have more than 21 different audio sources available to use in the studio.

Therefore, we have created a couple of fader presets, called “profiles”, to allow quick access to different pieces of equipment in the studio. 

For example ...

  • Need quick access to all 4 studio mics for an interview in the air studio?  Change to the Talk Show profile.  You'll see another "Phone" option light up, too! 
  • Got an acoustic group that wants to perform in the air studio?  Change to the All 5 Mics profile. You'll have access to the 4 studio mics PLUS the super-cool stereo microphone.  Remember to use the Effects channel! 
  • Did someone else change the profile and forget to put everything back to "normal"? 

These instructions detail how to "change profiles".

You can change the Axia Profiles at any time, live on-air,
and the listeners won't hear a thing.


Step 1:  Look at the Console Display Monitor

Specifically, look in the lower right corner of the display at the wording above the WRUW logo.  The wording identifies the "profile" in use.  Simply take note of what profile is currently in operation.

Step 2:  Look at the Console Surface (Upper Right Corner)


Specifically, focus on the upper right corner of the surface, below the six black knobs.  You are looking for the area labelled "GLOBAL OPTIONS" ... and you are looking for a button labelled "PROFILE". 

Step 3:  Press that Profile Button Once

Push the Profile button once, and watch the Console Display Monitor.  The clock will disappear and be replaced by a list of choices. 

Step 4:  Look for the "Selector Knob" on the console (LOWER RIGHT CORNER)

The Selector Knob is under the phone keypad and surrounded by 6 buttons. 

Step 5:  Rotate the Selector Knob and Watch the Display Monitor

As you rotate the Selector Knob, watch the display to see a bar highlighting the Show Profiles.

Step 6:  Find the Desired Profile and Press the Enter Button

The Enter button is right above the Selector Knob, to the upper right.  When the highlight bar is highlighting the desired profile, press the Enter button.

Step 7:  Watch the Console Labels Change

The channel labels on the console will change to the new preconfigured lineup of channels.  Whatever audio source is playing over the air will continue as if nothing happened.  

Step 8:  Press the PROFILE button again to clear the display and return to the
clock.

When you press the PROFILE button this second time, the Axia display screen will change from the Profile Selection Screen back to the clock:

 

That’s it! You’re all done! You have changed profiles!


NOTE:  If you have changed from the "Studio Standard" profile
to something else, please repeat the steps above to return to the
Standard profile when finished.
