FORTÉ CI

TesiraFORTÉ CI

The TesiraFORTÉ CI Component objects add input and output blocks associated with a FORTÉ CI hardware device.

Initialization Dialog

Name	Description
AEC Ref Mode	Determines how the AEC Reference block will be displayed and operate Single Channel - one common reference point for all channels. Single Channel with pass-through - one common reference point for all channels plus an output node for the AEC Ref signal to be passed through. Typically placed in-line with the room output so as the room level increases/decreases, the signal going to the reference increases/decreases proportionately. If this output node is left unterminated, the AEC inputs and subsequent processing objects will be seen as an incomplete signal path and ignored by the Compiler. Per channel - a separate reference point for each channel of AEC. Typically used for mix-minus referencing.
Preconfigure for Beamtracking Mics	Optimizes AEC settings for use with Beamtracking microphones.
Use USB	Opens the USB Channel Initialization dialog.

DSP Block Representation

The TesiraFORTÉ CI will add the following default component objects:

1 x AEC Input 12 Channel
1x AEC Processing Block 12 Channel
1x AEC Reference
1x Output 8 Channel

Optional:

USB I/O Blocks - depending on the initialization settings a USB Input and USB Output block will be added. See the USB section for more details.
Beamtracking Mics - if "Preconfigure for Beamtracking Mics" is selected, AEC settings will be optimized for Beamtracking microphones. "BT" in the lower right corner of the AEC block indicates this selection.

NOTE: Beamtracking defaults may be reset from the context menu of the AEC block by right-clicking and selecting "Reset to Beamtracking Defaults."

Default Configuration

Each TesiraFORTÉ device comes pre-configured from the factory with a default system design (see design layout below). If you wish to load your own custom designed configuration you will need to reset/initialize the unit(s) first. The default system files are installed with the Tesira software package and may be reloaded to the unit at a later stage if cleared.
