This article describes the remote control interface for the D&R AIRLITE-USB mixing console.

The AIRLITE is an 8-channel 19“ mixer which includes four stereo USB audio interfaces, and a USB control module for fader start etc., all through a single USB connection.

The audio setup is not exactly part of the remote control configuration, actually it's entirely separate, but you will find the following remarks useful.

The AIRLITE has four USB channels/faders, labelled “USB 1” through “USB 4” on the mixer surface.

The USB channels all have their own USB (stereo) audio interface, all of which are connected to a common USB hub inside the console.

Also connected to that USB hub is the USB control module used for remote control (see below). So there is a total of five USB devices inside the console.

When you plug the USB cable into your computer, Windows will detect the devices one by one, and give the soundcards names like “USB Audio”, “2-USB Audio”, “3-USB Audio” and “4-USB Audio” (names may vary).

It is important to know that the order of these devices is somewhat random, and it does not coincide with the order of the USB channels on the mixer surface most of the time!

So we recommend that you first go to the Windows audio settings, playback devices, identify each USB channel, then edit each device and change it's name (“Speaker”) to something more useful (e.g. “AIRLITE USB 1”). These names will appear in the mAirList audio setup, so you can easily identify the
