Music & Paging Zone Mixer Reference

The information provided in this section gives you a detailed description of the screens and controls for the Music & Paging Zone Mixer and the Music & Paging Zone Mixer remote apps.

Getting Started

The QSC MP-M music and paging mixers are ﬁxed architecture mixer/processors offering unprecedented capabilities combined with ease of conﬁguration and operation. The products are intended for retail and hospitality applications in which high-quality audio from various sources is routed to multiple zones. Live mixing functions are also supported for applications requiring reinforcement of entertainment, presentations or conferences.

System Requirements

The MP-M Apps support:

• Android – 5.0 or later

• iOS – 8.0 or later

• macOS – 10.9 or later

• Windows – 10

MP Install

This app (for iOS / Android tablets, Windows and Mac OS) allows system designers and installers to quickly and easily design and conﬁgure systems for MP-M Series mixers. This wireless control features an intuitive Workﬂow Wizard to navigate through room tuning and speed commissioning.

MP Manage

For wireless control, the MP Manage app (for iOS / Andorid tablets and smartphones) provides end users day-today operation of basic system functions including zone level, source selection, scene recall, scheduling, and mixer control. It also offer a unique store-and-forward zone paging functionality to the MP-M Series mixer.

MP-MFC Controllers

The MP-MFC Controllers are intuitive wall mount controls to enable customizable system adjustments for the MP-M Series music and paging mixer. They provide multi-zone source selection, scene selection and volume control. Designers can conﬁgure these peripherals to provide end users with as much or as little control over the system as needed

Input Channel − Presets

The MP-M includes presets for speech and musical instruments. The musical instrument presets are intended for applications in which the Mixer section is used for reinforcement of live entertainment.

An Input Channel Preset consists of settings for the channel EQ, dynamics and gate that can be saved and recalled. The channel name and level settings are also stored with the preset but may be omitted from a preset recall by setting the Recall Omits switches to omit them.

About Stereo Linking:

About Delay:

The output delay on the MP-M is primarily useful for “architectural delay”. Architectural delay is used to align the arrival of sound from nearby speakers to the arrival of sound from a more distant source. When the delay is set correctly, the listeners will have the impression that they are hearing the distant source when most of what they hear is actually coming from the nearby speakers. To adjust the delay:

Output Channel − Sources

A primary purpose of the MP-M is to route audio signals from the inputs (Sources) to the outputs (Zones). The Sources screen is where the available sources are assigned to an output and given their roles.

The MP-M uses Priority Sources to designate which inputs are able to override the signal from other inputs. Each output zone includes two duckers that are triggered by the Priority inputs. (A ducker is a dynamic processor that uses one audio signal to reduce the level of another signal.)

Assignments to sources are made from MP Install and cannot be changed from the MP Manage app or the MFC controllers.

Output Zone − Loudness

How the human ear perceives tonal balance depends on the level of the sound being heard. As level decreases, more low-frequencies (relative to the mid-frequencies) are needed to maintain the perception that tonal balance is unchanged. Psychoacoustic research has established Constant Loudness Contours that describe how the perception changes with level.

The Loudness function works with the output Zone Level control to maintain a constant perceived tonal balance when the Zone Level setting is adjusted.

Threshold

– Adjusts the point at which the Zone Output Level can be set without applying any loudness compensation. When the Output Level and the Threshold controls are both set to the same level, there will be no loudness compensation. If the Output Level is then lowered by 10 dB, a Loudness Contour that compensates for the 10 dB change is applied.

Zone Level

– Graphic representation of the Zone channel Output Level.

Shaded Area – The difference between the Threshold setting and the Zone Level setting will be represented by a shaded area overlaying the Equal Loudness Contours.

Scale

– The Scale control adjusts how much loudness compensation is applied. If too much low-frequency is heard at low level, reduce the

setting. If more low-frequency is desired at lower-levels, increase the Scale value.

Bring the Zone channel Output Fader up to the level at which there should be no loudness compensation applied. This will usually be the loudest, normal operating level for the output zone.

Adjust the Threshold slider so that the blue Threshold line overlays the white Zone Level line. Use the Scale control to adjust how much compensation is applied. To set the Scale, bring the Zone output level to the lowest normal operating

level. If too much Loudness Compensation is present, reduce the Scale setting.

fewer potential sources of interference, an optional QSC supplied USB adapter is available here https://parts.qsc. com/cp-000033-00. No other USB Wi-Fi adapters have been qualiﬁ ed for use with the MP-M. Be aware that its range and connection reliability will be limited compared to an external Wi-Fi router.

If the optional QSC USB Wi-Fi adapter is installed, the mixer will automatically create its own network on power up. The default network name will be the name of the mixer, which is the serial number by default, and the mixer’s wireless network password will be “1234509876”.

to an Ethernet network, it will attempt to automatically obtain an IP address. If this isn’t possible, it will autoassign an ad hoc address. When a computer or mobile device is connected to the network and the MP Installer or the MP Manager app is run it will ask for a password which by default is “Admin for MP Install and “Access” for MP Manage access. A strongly worded message will appear encouraging the integrator to change the network and mixer passwords along with ﬁ elds to enter the new passwords.
