EuCon Hybrid is included with S5 Fusion and extends the control
capabilities of the console beyond the dedicated DSP Cards to
theoutsideworld,bringingDAWtracksfrommultipleworksta-
tions onto the console surface for mixing. No other control
system or console comes close to the power and total
integration of Euphonix control surfaces with EuCon.
AnyDAWrunningtheEuConClientApplicationonthenetwork
can have its tracks selected for placement and control on the
S5Fusionsurface.ThepositionofDAWtracksonthesurface

be placed in any order on the surface simultaneously next to

channels, one for Pro Tools and one with combinations from

This greatly extends the capability of any S5 Fusion console and

be available only as traditional playback sources. It is now pos-
sible to have direct, high-speed access to any of these tracks,
their plug-ins and metering.

The EuCon control protocol makes all this connectivity possible and is
transparent to the user. EuCon Hybrid scans the Ethernet network for
availableworkstations.AnyPCorMacapplication,notjustDAWs,
can be controlled from the S5 Fusion surface.
The EuCon Client Application is installed on each PC or Mac
workstation for basic connectivity. This allows control surface
commands, such as fader or knob moves, to be translated into
EuCon,HUIorMackieControlcommandsforeachapplication.
Native EuCon applications that directly support the EuCon pro-
tocol,such asDigitalPerformer, Nuendo,Logic Pro,Maestro,
MIO Console, SONAR and Pyramix, have an extremely high
level of integration with high-resolution, high-speed connectiv-
ity to all of the application’s functions, including multi-channel
meteringandEQ/pancurves.Controlisfastandhighlyrespon-
sive. EuCon Hybrid also provides extensive high-speed control

tocol extensions. In addition to fader, pan, aux sends, metering
and routing, EuCon Hybrid allows access to the track’s plug-ins
