Report under construction.

=Summary=
An (As of yet) not pinpointed issue caused Jukebox to fail to output to TX and Online for over an hour, despite the jukebox service still playing out music on Icecast and through the studio faders. Also the dead air alarm didnt tell anyone, the bastard.

=Rough Sequence of Events=
At around 11:02 Jukebox stops playing out audio to streaming and TX. Nobody notices as nobody listens to us, and the dead air detector sends no emails (Not that it could do much other than "We detected a silence, jukebox has been switched to jukebox!")

Having finished his morning lectures at around 12:00, MM enters the station and has a quick check of Jukebox via a desks AM feed. MM notices that no sound is coming out. Checking the feed from the AM2, Yamaha, and Icecast show the same. In a nervous panic MM alerts the committee, switching to red and playing out the Jukebox feed via the Pres Pc (Through Icecast, as Jukebox still was playing audio itself) at 12:11. At the time MM didnt know online was off as well as AM so ran into TX and stared at it. The transmitter was sitting there all happy and smug, no reflected power to speak of, just the ominous "Audio break" LED latched on. Having no idea what to check, MM comes back to the studio after a good 10 minute stare and contemplate to find that Jukebox is back on air playing as normal.

Turns out during this thoughtful TX stare someone came in and thought "Why the fuck is Red on thats not right!" and switched to Jukebox, which suddenly worked as normal. MM is very confused at this and declares the incident over at 12:26, unsure if the incident was over (But the dead air was gone and MM had shit to do so eh, good enough).

Yamaha 01v96i

2019-06-20T18:01:14Z

10749:

The Yamaha 01v96i is a digital mixing console built by Yamaha Professional Audio, part of Japanese conglomerate Yamaha.

The first generation 01v was released in 1998 and it and later updated generations remain in widespread use. The third generation 01v96i is a powerful 40 channel (32 mono, 4 stereo) mixer featuring full 4 band parametric EQ, delay and dynamics on each input channel and 4 onboard effects processors. The 01v96i can be used as a 16x16 digital USB 2.0 interface with sample rates up to 96Kz/24bit. As it is not as user-friendly as more recent digital mixing consoles (such as the Behringer X32), it is recommended to spend sufficient time familiarising yourself with the interface if you have a need to use the console.

URY's 01v96i also features a [[Dante]] card to allow it to interface with [[Rednet]]. In the office, the 01v96i is used as a monitoring device for various inputs including Studio 1 feed, Studio 2 feed, Jutebox feed as well as outputs from the Production PC and Office PC 1 and 2. Please consult the instructions posted above the the console for further information (when they are re-installed, tba).

For live sessions, such as the Flagship Music Show, the 01v96i is used to mix the guest artist and create monitor mixes.

In 2018 the motor for Fader 1 died. Minor changing to patching was made and a replacement fader was purchased. This replacement was installed in the Summer of 2019 during an awkward repair procedure. The old fader that was thought to be broken just had a belt issue seemingly, so we now have that as a spare if necessary. This repair also came with the added benefit of CS lab techs using a compressed air line to blow out what must have been 10 years of dust as well. It has yet to be patched and routed back up in the office, but this is expected to happen in Autumn 2019.
