SAC HW-Interface to Yamaha TIO1608

[TomyN]

Hi
I've loaded up a beta version of the SAC -> TIO converter.
It's a simple tool that 'translates' the messages of the SAC HW-IO interface to the yamaha control messages for the TIO stagebox.
- Run the tiocontrol.exe from https://download.satlive.audio/sac/TioControl.zip
- Right click on the area at the left. This will open up a setup - menu
- Enable the entry 'Update Value Display' to show the information in the area at the right ( gain and phantom)
- Click on each of the TIOx entries to set the IP address of each Tio. Tio 1 will receive channels 1--16, Tio 2 17 -- 32 and so on. Note that you must use the configuration IP of the Tio (which might differ from the Dante IP). Use the R-Control software to set those ips.
- Note the IP shown at the top of the window.

In SAC
- View -> IOIH Control
- Options -> IO Interface Hardware Device Setup
- I/O Interface Name / Ip -> Set to the IP shown in the TioControl window
- I/O Interface Port -> Use either the default port 27659 (also default in TioControl) or set to the same port as set in the TioControl -> Set Port window
- Activate Active I/O Interface TCP/IP control -> Connection should be established
- Use Mic - Gain setting to control gain of the TIO.
- Use Pad to add a 16dB pad ( this enables you to use the full gain range of the Tio ( -6dB to 65dB)
- Use 48V to control the phantom power of the TIO(s)

WARNINGS
- This is a beta version
- The I/O Hardware Interface in SAC seems not to be quite perfect, especial on save/restore/recall/scenes
- Use on your own risk

HINT
- Being a 32bit win app itself the use of TCP/IP allows the TioControl to work with both SAC32 and SAC64.

Enjoy

TomyN,

Where does one get this application? Great work, by-the-way!

Dell -- is that not a download link in the OP?

Dave,

Dell -- is that not a download link in the OP?

... I dunno...is it?

The links do not appear to be so for the software that is being referred to? I could be just reading things incorrectly.

The software runs minimized by default (d.h. you might just see an icon in the taskbar). Click on the icon to open it.

Thank you for sharing your software, Tomy.

Very cool! Makes me want to get the Stagebox just to try it out.
