Focusrite Liquid 4PRE, User Manual

4. Now select the 

Load

option and press down on the DATA encoder.

5. Turn the DATA encoder to select a program memory.

Used memory locations are displayed with the program memory name, and the names of the four individual channel 
settings which are stored within the program memory.

6. Now press down on the DATA encoder to load the memory. The settings are loaded and the display will show 

loaded ok

Note that if you try and load an empty memory location, then the display will report that the memory 

couldn’t load

. 

Channel Setup Options

This section covers each of the 

Channel Setup

options in more detail. We will assume that you are familiar with the basic

operations of setup page navigation, editing and naming. If not, please refer back to the examples on page 14.

Press the 

Setup

button on the appropriate channel to change the LCD to 

Channel Setup

view. From here, you can access

the following options: 

Name (Page 1)

You may give each channel of the Liquid 4PRE™ a name, up to 12 characters
in length. You may want to do this if you are going to link multiple units and
therefore have lots of sources, or you are going to save settings into a 
channel memory.

We’ve already covered this operation, so please refer back to page 15 for
details.

Load and Save (Page 1)

These options allow you to load and save up to 99 channel memories. Please refer back to page 16 for details on these
options.

Digi Input (Page 2)

When a channel is switched to Digital input, from the 

Input

button, the signal can be taken from any digital input to the

Liquid 4PRE™. This pre-selection is made on a channel-by-channel basis using the 

Digi Input

option as follows:

Ether 1

to 

Ether 8

– any channel from the optional Ethersound IN connection;

Adat 1

to 

Adat 8

– any channel from the ADAT FROM SLAVE connection;

AES Left

or 

AES Right

– either channel of the AES INPUT.

Note when the Liquid 4PRE™ operates at normal sample rates (44.1kHz or 48kHz), each of the 8 channels of the
Ethersound card and ADAT connection are available individually. However, when higher sample rates are selected, then
the Ethersound and ADAT channels are grouped to supply double or quadruple sample rates. So, for example, at 96kHz,
you can select 

ADAT 1

, 

ADAT 2

, 

ADAT 3 

or

ADAT 4

. At 192kHz, you can select either 

ADAT 1

or 

ADAT 2

. Note that this

restriction does not apply to the AES input.
