• Use AUX 1-2 to feed the internal effect processors. • Use AUX 3-6 as 4 mono cue mixes or 2 stereo cue mixes. Use the assignable sends to feed headphone amplifiers. This is how the talent will monitor the cue mixes. • Change AUX 1-2 to POST fader. • We are always monitoring the tape return path, so bring up channels 17-32 on the master and 17-24 on the slave. We also need to monitor the effect returns so bring up channels 25-28 on the slave too. Make sure the control room source is the stereo buss. • Use the vocal tape return channel to send to AUX 2. This is a TC Works reverb. You should immediately hear reverb in the control room. • For the vocalist to hear the reverb you need to turn up the proper aux send level (the aux send which feeds the vocalist's cue mix) on channels 27-28. This allows you to record and monitor 24 tracks simultaneously. As well as monitor effects and MIDI sound modules and have access to four cue mixes with effects. Each track can be recorded with gating, compression and EQ and monitored with additional compression and EQ. This is serious power! Cascading two DM-24s provides: • 32 mic pres • 64 channels (120 inputs to stereo buss w/ AUX 1-2 and direct to ST) • 48 channels of TDIF I/O • 16 channels of ADAT lightpipe I/O • 4 AES/EBU 2 channel digital I/O • 4 S/PDIF 2 channel digital I/O • 8 Assignable sends and returns • 4 Internal effects processors (2 in each) • 33 Touch sensitive, motorized faders • The ability to run a 24 track, 24-bit, 96kHz, 5.1 mixing environment! Cascading also works at 96kHz! 18
