MTRX Mono SUM function for DADmom question

[SomeOtherGuy]

Would appreciate if anyone might describe how to add a MONO sum function in the DADman Monitor profile. (I just tried to add it, but somehow all my DADmom settings got erased, and it took a while to recreate everything.)

Thanks--

In the Monitor Profile Fold Down tab... right click and create a new matrix. Then select stereo as input and mono as output. You have to manually put the level values into the boxes (this is the step that confounded me for a bit).


Oh, and I do note.. save a lot. DADMan would randomly hang on me.. and all changes gone. So I am pretty quick on the save after that lesson repeated a bunch.


I'd like to know if there is any way to disable the ref button in DADMan (or maybe someone has a tip here). If you are using self powered monitors, the output level is being controlled by my Mom box (which is generally very low). If you hit ref, it sets signal to 0... ah which gets your attention in an ear splitting what the hell happened type way. I assigned the ref switch on Mom to select the Mono folddown... so no accidents from the hardware. But if you hit ref in DADMan, not good.

Thank you. I'll try it.

Re the REF button you mentioned, when I lost my monitor settings last night, I must have hit the REF button because my head got blasted by full volume from the speakers. I couldn't stop it so rushed around to quickly unplug the monitors. I hope that never happens again. My REF button doesn't light up when pressed though, I'll have to read up on this...

I have trims in the monitor profile so that REF won't blast me. -24dB in my case.

Oh, thank you! That works perfectly. I am incredibly impressed with the capabilities/flexibility of the MTRX/DADMan/MOM combo.

Yeah, I basically set mine up so pink noise at -20dBFS = 77dB(C)SPL with DADman at 0dB (REF). I can still get blasted listening to Spotify though!
