How many KLANG devices can be connected?

faq icon to expand accordian

Depending on your input channel requirements and the number of mixes required, more than one KLANG device can be connected to the same control network. Input channels arriving on KLANG:fabrik e.g. via MADI, can be routed to other KLANG:fabrik’s and KLANG:vier (48kHz only). Dante input channels can be routed to as many receiving devices as needed. Depending on the network load Dante Multicast flows have to be used and managed switches with proper IGMP snooping and QoS configuration should be used.

Most KLANG immersive processors can be configured to work in a cascade of units.

There is no limit other than your network limitiation as to how many KLANG:fabrik and KLANG:vier can be added to your network. KLANG:app will show each KLANG device available on your network.

How many :apps can be connected to KLANG immersive processors?

Our products are designed and tested to be used with at least 1 :app or :kontroller per mix, plus 2 :apps for engineers. In most cases is is possible to use even more apps, there is no fixed limit.

Where it used to be two different processes to gather log files and presets from KLANG hardware via USB export and email logs , K:a now collects all logs automatically. Follow this link for more details.

It is now possible to enter a KOS Login Password. Users need to know this password to connect to the processor in Show or Admin mode. Follow this link for more details.

Can I protect channels from changes?

Yes, channels can be hidden in KLANG:app running musician or personal mode and on kontrollers and therefore be protected from changes. Follow this link for more details.

What’s the difference between 1st and 2nd generation KLANG processors?

faq icon to expand accordian

The first two KLANG processors, namely :fabrik and :vier used the same hardware platform. These are the first generation KLANG processors and they both use the same KOS update files.

All processors developed after – :vokal, :vokal+, :konductor, DMI-KLANG – use a different hardware platform and are therefore called 2nd generation KLANG processors. The KOS firmware files for the 2nd generation processors are the same.

Both generations are compatible with the same KLANG:app and Show files can be exchanged between 1st and 2nd generation processors as well.

Can I change the panning laws?

With KOS 5.4 it became possible to change the stereo panning laws on 2nd Generation KLANG processors.

The panning law used before KOS 5.4 is KLANG1. Along with the auto mapping feature for the DiGiCo console integration, the panning types D1 and D2 are introduced, these are identical to the type 1 and type 2 panning laws on a DiGiCo. By creating a new KLANG show file from scratch (Load default/defaultOff) panning law D1 is used. Mixes created on a DiGiCo with panning law type 1 while therefore sound identical when imported to as a starting point to KLANG.

The STEREOK3 panning laws are pseudo binaural pannings with different head geometries. Use these panning laws when some signals need to remain in Stereo (e.g. because less coloration is required) and still get improved sound transparency.

Set Stereo Panning Law is stored in a KLANG show file and will be recalled when loading a show file. It affects all mixes.

How to change mixing parameters for many channels or mixes at the same time?
