GoXLR App Interface Overview

The GoXLR App provides extensive control and customization options for your device:

Profiles: Opret og administrer flere pro'erfiles to quickly switch between different audio setups, lighting configurations, and microphone settings.
Mic Setup: Configure your microphone type (Dynamic or Condenser with +48V phantom power), adjust gain levels, and monitor your input with a real-time mic meter.
Port: Control the gate settings to automatically shut off your mic when input falls below a set threshold, reducing background noise. Advanced settings include threshold, attenuation, attack, and release.
Equalizer: Shape the sound of your voice with adjustable Bass, Mid, and Treble controls. Fine-tune options are available for specific frequencies (50Hz, 160Hz, 480Hz, 1.5kHz, 4.5kHz, 7.8kHz).
Kompressor: Control the loudness and softness of your mic sound for a more even output. Adjustable parameters include threshold, ratio, attack, release, and make-up gain.
Mixer: Assign audio sources to the four faders (Mic, Voice Chat, Music, Game, Console, Line In, System, Sample, Headphone, Line Out). Configure mute options for various outputs (Mute All, Mute to Stream, Mute to Voice Chat, Mute to Phones, Mute to Line Out).
Belysning: Customize the LED lighting for faders, buttons, and global accents. Choose from a color wheel or predefined colors, and set gradient or meter styles for faders.
Rute: Manage how audio inputs are routed to different outputs (Headphones, Broadcast, Stream Mix, Line Out, Chat Mic). This allows for precise control over what each listener or recording hears.

Opretholdelse

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your TC Helicon GoXLR MINI, follow these maintenance guidelines:

Rensning: Brug en blød, tør klud til at rengøre enhedens yderside. Undgå at bruge slibende rengøringsmidler, opløsningsmidler eller stærke kemikalier, da disse kan beskadige overfladen og de indvendige komponenter.
Støvforebyggelse: Keep the device in a clean, dust-free environment. Dust can accumulate in ports and vents, potentially affecting performance.
Opbevaring: When not in use for extended periods, store the GoXLR MINI in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Kabelstyring: Ensure all cables are connected securely and are not under undue strain or bent sharply, which can lead to damage over time.

- Check the routing matrix in the GoXLR App to ensure inputs are correctly routed to outputs.
Softwareproblemer:
