System 5 Digital Audio Mixing System - InDepth

Strips

System 5 is built up of modules of 8 strips. Controls closely

resemble those of a traditional analog surface. In its simplest

form a single strip controls a single source so a 48 strip surface

could control 48 channels.

TFT Graphic Display:

meters, designation, pan, EQ,

dyn graphs, routing indication

Knobset:

8 knobs with 4 character

displays

Knobset Function Select:

selects the 8 knobs to control

Input, Dyn, EQ, Filters, Aux, Pan

or Routing

Fader:

twin 4-character designations

(that may be linked to the facil-

ity router), solo, channel on,

channel select key for bringing

up the source in the center of

the console, 100mm long-throw

touch-sensitive motorized fader,

twin hi-res LED meters

Swap Button

Swap (Replace)

However there is a very useful function

called “Swap” which allows single strips,

or every strip, to switch between two chan-

nels. So 96 channels (sources) could easily

be controlled from 48 strips by Swapping

between the two layers at the push of a

button (1-48 and 49-96).

System 5 adds further ﬂexibility by allow-

ing any source to be controlled from any

strip, it is even possible to have two strips

controlling a single source. This is where

Layouts come into play.

Layouts & Control Groups

The position of sources on the surface can

be saved and recalled as Layouts. For ex-

ample one Layout could be sources 1-48

and another sources 49-96 for a console

with 96 channels and 48 strips. More im-

portantly the most critical sources can be

placed next to the operator. For example,

dialog to the left and music sources to the

right of the center. Different Layouts can be saved so that the

engineer always has the most important sources within easy

reach. Layouts do not save and recall knob and fader settings,

they simply recall the layout of sources on the control surface.

SnapShots are used to save parameter settings. Control Groups

allow a number of faders to be controlled from a single strip.

Layouts can store/recall the entire desk or only certain strips

deﬁned by the operator.

Central Control of Strips

The Master Control Module includes a complete strip for cen-

tral control of any source. The optional CM402-T module also

includes additional knobsets that are available for control of EQ,

dynamics, aux sends, ﬁlters, input and routing at the same time.

Pressing the Wave key next to a source fader brings that source

to the center.
