# Mair Remote
|
|
|
|
This package offers a python interface for the [Behringer XAir](https://www.behringer.com/series.html?category=R-BEHRINGER-XAIRSERIES), [Midas MR](https://www.midasconsoles.com/catalog.html?catalog=Category&category=C-MIDAS-MIXERS-DIGITALSTAGEBOXMIXERS) series of digital rack mixers. I only have access to an MR18 for testing so if there is an error in the kind maps feel free to raise an issue or PR.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Python 3.9+
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/onyx-and-iris/xair-api-python
|
|
cd xair-api-python
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Just the interface:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pip install .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
With development dependencies:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pip install -e .['development']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Connection
|
|
|
|
An ini file named config.ini, placed into the current working directory of your code may be used to configure the mixers ip. It's contents should resemble:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[connection]
|
|
ip=<ip address>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you may state it explicitly as an argument to mair.connect()
|
|
|
|
### Example 1
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import mair
|
|
|
|
def main():
|
|
with mair.connect(kind_id, ip=ip) as mixer:
|
|
mixer.strip[8].config.name = 'sm7b'
|
|
mixer.strip[8].config.on = True
|
|
print(f'strip 09 ({mixer.strip[8].config.name}) has been set to {mixer.strip[8].config.on}')
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
kind_id = 'MR18'
|
|
ip = '<ip address>'
|
|
|
|
main()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

### `Tests`
|
|
|
|
People plug expensive equipment into these mixers, the unit tests adjust parameter values such as gain sliders etc. My advice is
|
|
to unplug all equipment from the mixer before running these tests. No tests alter phantom power state.
|
|
Save your current settings to a snapshot first.
|
|
|
|
First make sure you installed the [development dependencies](https://github.com/onyx-and-iris/xair-api-python#installation)
|
|
|
|
To run the tests from tests directory:
|
|
|
|
`pytest -v`.
