Automix 181 16 Automix This chapter describes the Automix function, which automates real-time mix operation, and explains how to use it. About Automix The DM1000 features an Automix function, which allows dynamic automation of virtually all mix parameters, including Levels, Mutes, Pan, Surround Pan, Aux Sends, Aux Send Mutes, EQ, and effects. Various mixing events can be recorded in Automix. You can also punch channels or parameters in and out of recording on-the-fly, and edit most parameters off-line with 1/4 frame accuracy. Remote layer operations, and Scene and library recall operations can also be automated, which enables you to create mix automation that combines snap shots and dynamic mix parameter changes. You can store up to 16 Automixes in the Automix library. You can also store an Automix or the entire Automix library to an external MIDI device, such as a MIDI data filer, by using MIDI Bulk Dump. The following parameter events can be recorded in an Automix: Parameters Channel levels (faders) Channel mutes (ON/OFF) Pan Surround pan, LFE level, and DIV EQ (F, Q, G, On/Off) Aux Send 1-8 levels Aux Send 1-8 mutes Scene recalls EQ, Gate, Comp, Effects, Channel library recalls Effects parameters (certain parameters) User Defined Remote Layers (faders, [ON], Encoders) Input Channels O O O O O O O Bus Out Master O O - - O - - Aux Send Master O O - - O - - Stereo Out O O - - O - - 16 Automix DM1000-Owner's Manual
