System 5-B Digital Audio Mixing System Operation Manual

 

Introduction

21

System 5-B features a professional modular control surface that can be easily config-
ured to suit a variety of operational layouts. The control surface connects to the DF64 
Digital Frame via ethernet and the EuCon Hub; audio does not pass through the control 
surface.

The System 5-B control surface consists of a CM401 master section, a CM402 center 
section and multiple CM408 modules.

A CM408 module contains eight identical Strips. The Strip is the physical control 
area on the console that contains keys, knobs, displays, and a fader. A Channel per-
forms all of the signal processing (EQ, dynamics, routing, gain, etc.). System 5-B has 
96 channels, each of which may be assigned to a Strip. Each Strip has room for Swap 
and Main channels that can be toggled by pressing the Swap button. System 5-B al-
lows tremendous flexibility assigning and controlling channels.

Most analog consoles are limited to mono or stereo channels. System 5-B supports 
mono and stereo channels as well as Multi Format Masters (LCRS, 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1) 
with multiple channels (see Chapter 8: Control Groups and Multi Format Masters).

The following hardware devices are also used in System 5-B:

•

System Computer (SC261): Runs the eMix software application; all file man-
agement and system setup is done from this computer. 
See Chapter 4: eMix Application.

•

Interface Pilot Computer (PC253i): Supervises control functions for the an-
alog monitor controller, remote microphone preamps, and transport control.

•

Digital Pilot Computer (PC253d): Controls the DF64 digital audio frame. 

•

Studio Hub (SH612): This optional device can be used to add additional MADI 
ports to route audio to and from the DF64 digital audio frame.
