That is true, right enough, unless you have an in situ measurement system like the Trinnov one. Then, all you have to do is squirt a signal down each of the channels to the rig in turn and see what the AED for that channel is then hook the appropriate output of your system to that channel before going on to the next. In that case, in theory there's never any need to know or even have any channel identification. That's *in theory*, in practise I always used to shout at any students (or even colleagues) who didn't label things properly because things go wrong (especially when there's time pressure) and the labelling can be vital in tracing faults - after all, if the speaker channel ain't working (cleaners have been known to forget to plug back in what they unplugged to plug their vacuum in) no about of AED measurement gear is going to do any good :-)
