Introduction 2

1 Introduction

The EasyMix (EM) is a tactical remote control surface for the following digital

signal processor (DSP) architectures: Biamp Tesira®, Symetrix SymNet®, and

QSC Q-Sys®. There are two models. The FC8X with (8) faders and the FC12X with

(12) faders. All communication and controls are bidirectional with touch sensitive

motorized faders and backlit buttons. A color HD display is located above each

fader to display channel names, live meters, and other custom control functions.

presets, snapshots, or other

on/off functions.

Bank Switching

Add a second bank of faders and

mutes to double the channel

count of the EasyMix.

An FC8X can control up to 16

channels of audio while the

FC12X can control up to 24

channels of audio.

Power Control

Powers the mixer on and off.

Connect the EasyMix power

switch to a Control to remotely

control the power state of the

mixer from the DSP and / or

trigger a power sequencer from

the EasyMix.

2 Unpacking your EasyMix

Your EasyMix is designed to be used on a desk using the included end caps. Rack

mounting hardware is available as an accessory.

3 How to connect to your EasyMix

Connect the Ethernet port to to an 802.3at compliant switch or POE injector using

shielded Ethernet cable. POE injectors are available as an accessory from Mystery

Electronics.

The EasyMix is set to use DHCP by default. The easiest method of locating the

EasyMix is to connect it to a LAN that has a DHCP server.

If your LAN has a DHCP server enabled:

EasyMix3

1) Connect the EasyMix to your LAN.

2) View the IP address of the EasyMix in the right display.

Note: If the IP address isn't visible, that indicates that it's connected to a DSP. In

that case, temporarily remove the DSP from the network to force the EasyMix to

display the IP address. You can optionally download and run our Windows

discovery tool from www.mysteryelectronics.com/downloads.

If your LAN doesn’t have a DHCP server enabled:

1) Connect the EM12 to your LAN.

2) Manually set your computer to use an IP in the 192.168.0.1 subnet.

3) The fallback IP address of the EasyMix is 192.168.0.20.

4 Obtaining Support

For assistance, please submit inquiry at www.mysteryelectronics.com/contact or call

615 643 8460 (Monday-Friday | 9am-5pm CST).

5 Hardware

5.1 Front Panel

The front panel consists of one touch sensitive motorized fader, HD LCD display,

backlit mute button, and programmable backlit button per channel. The FC8X has

(8) channels and the FC12X has (12) channels.

5.2 Rear Panel Connections

The Ethernet port uses an 802.3at compliant switch or POE injector to power the

EasyMix and allow communication with a supported DSP.

The recessed reset pin allows you to perform two functions.

Press the reset button momentarily to change the IP address to the fallback IP of

192.168.0.20

Press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds to reset the Network settings,

EmSetup, and Site Setup to defaults. The right display will indicate when you

may release the button to reset the unit.

6 Settings

Open the EasyMix Settings in a web browser by using the actual IP address of the

hardware. See the section How to connect to your EasyMix .

EasyMix is able to establish communication. A question mark indicates the the

item is not present in the DSP and additional DSP configuration is required before

the item will function.

Edit - Allows you to edit the configution before saving it to the EasyMix.

Save to EM12 - Saves the current configuration to the EasyMix. Specify a Site

name to name the configuration.
