4 - Routing & assignment : Routing • Assignment of modules to the 24 busses as well as to the stereo busses is carried out by dedicated keys (to the left of the display). • Assignment of physical hardware inputs to modules, and of internal components to physical hard- Routing Use the ROUTING screens to set up the routing of input sources to modules, etc. as well as to set outputs. There are four of these screens: one for INPUT, one for OUTPUT, one for the OUTPUT SLOTs and one for the soft INSERTS. Input routing The INPUT screen allows you to select input sources from a list composed of (mainly) the physical inputs of the DM-4800, and route them to input destinations (channels and dynamics triggers). 2 1 3 Figure 4.1: Routing inputs 1 Select the source group with the POD 4 encoder. The input sources are as follows, as listed at the lower right of the screen (1 in Figure 4.1, Routing inputs): M/L TDIF1/TDIF2/ TDIF3 ADAT DIN Mic/line input channels (see "Mic/line connections" on page 49). The three built-in TDIF 8-channel input ports (see "TDIF I/O" on page 50). The eight optical "lightpipe" inputs (see"ADAT "lightpipe" OUT & IN" on page 50). The two stereo digital inputs (see "Digital inputs and outputs" on page 50). Table 4.2: Input sources ware outputs, together with the internal patching between mixer sections, as well as the setting up of the "soft" inserts, is done in the ASSIGN screens (see "Routing" on page 59). To enter these screens, press the ROUTING key (ALT + 6) until the appropriate screen is shown on the display. NOTE Assignment of channels to busses is done by means of the buss keys to the left of the display, or by means of the ASSIGN screens (use the ASSIGN key here). ASN RTN EFF RTN 2TRIN OSC SLOT1/SLOT2/ SLOT3/SLOT4 LOOPBACK options The eight analog assignable returns (see "Analog inputs" on page 33). The internal effect returns (see "Insert patching" on page 61). The 2-track master recorder inputs (see "2 TR IN" on page 49). Internal oscillator The inputs provided by any cards fitted to the slots (see "Slot card configuration" on page 52 for details). Explained below ("Loopback options" on page 60). Table 4.2: Input sources (Continued) 2 Select the destination layer of these input sources by using the POD 3 encoder (2 in Figure 4.1, Routing inputs). Choose between: CH 1-16 Channel modules 1 through 16 CH 17-32 Channel modules 17 through 32 CH 33-48 Channel modules 33 through 48 CH 49-64 Channel modules 49 through 64 DYN TRIGGER The eight dynamics processor triggers also described in "Trigger settings" on page 78 Table 4.3: Destination layers If either of the first two options is selected, each destination module is shown in the list with an INP (input) and RTN (return) available for routing selection. Channels 49 through 64 only present the input (though this has only the capabilities of returns in other channels). 3 Use the cursor keys to select the source field (either the input or return in the case of channels 1 through 48), and use the wheel to select TASCAM DM-4800 User's Manual 59
