Allen & Heath has released the latest version of its iLive firmware and Editor software, which includes a range of enhancements. Version 1.6 is available immediately and can be downloaded from www.ilive-digital.com.

These include support of the new iLive-R72 Control Surface, Dual-Rack input expansion, and ‘SuperStrip’ user view in the Editor control software.

Among the many new developments in the offline/online Editor control software is the ‘SuperStrip’ processing view, which combines important live mixing parameters into a single window, enabling a more comprehensive view of functions when configuring offline or mixing live.

Another key feature in v1.6 is the ability to set the redundancy socket on Allen & Heath’s Audio and Control over Ethernet option card as a breakout to split to other iLive systems, offering a cost effective alternative to audio networking.

There are an array of feature enhancements to improve flexibility, including a Range Select patch function for easier set up of FOH/Monitor/Recording applications, and Safe mode for DCA master levels and mutes when recalling Scenes, ideal for festivals or events involving multiple band set ups.
