In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the LED brightness control issue where it automatically resets to maximum brightness even when set to dim. They mention that despite this, it is not a major concern and can be managed at PC startup. Moving on to the inputs and outputs section of the Control software for the Prism Lyra 2, they explain the presence of two analog and two digital inputs. External preamps connected through Adat will also be displayed. Details about built-in preamps are discussed, including setting input levels, using the overkiller circuit for limiting peaks, applying filters like high pass or RIAA, and flipping the phase. The overkiller circuit is described as a hardware limiter with a soft knee to prevent overload. Additionally, the video explains how the device allows for mid-side recording setup with a simple button press, which is deemed fantastic.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the inputs and outputs of a device. They mention the XLR input for mic level, TRS jack input for line level, and instrument input on the front. The built-in preamp is highlighted for its transparency and high resolution. The digital inputs can be set to toslink or RCA, with options to lock digital sync. Output options include minus 10 and plus four, with the ability to set levels for routing signals to headphones or other devices.
00:12:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker demonstrates how to route the Daw to various outputs on a digital device. Settings such as AES or spitif can be adjusted easily, and the speaker explains the monitoring capabilities of the controller. They discuss the output level and monitoring controllers. Additionally, the function of the lock feature is explained in relation to output controls. The speaker mentions the complexity of finding the right monitor controller for themselves.
00:15:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker demonstrates how to set analog outputs one and two in a mixer view, giving options for stereo settings, volume control, panning, solo and mute functionalities. The same customization can be done for digital inputs routed to analog outputs. The process is user-friendly and visually clear. The speaker also explains how to customize headphone output settings, offering flexibility in routing and custom mix creation. However, while the interface is easy to use, it may become cumbersome with multiple inputs and outputs compared to other software like TotalMix.
