Module Layout 

This section describes the arrangements of modules front-to-back in their chassis, and chassis left-to-right in the frame. 

Front-to-Back Module Arrangements

Master section modules are usually installed together in a single chassis with the Master Module above the Automation Module. 
They do not have to be in the same chassis, but for simplicity this guide shows them installed together. 

Channel modules are usually installed together to provide the fader strips in a system. Typically, the Fader Module is installed in 
slot 1, Process Module in slot 2, and Knob Module in slot 3, but Knob Modules can also be placed below a Process Module. Frame 
Chassis Small support one Knob Module per chassis; Frame Chassis Large support up to two Knob Modules per chassis. M40- or 
M10 Plus-based systems also support Display Modules. Not all slots need to contain modules. Fill panels are available to cover un-
used slots, and to allow smaller modules to be placed in slot 1. 

The first two sections show standard arrangements for Avid-configured systems. For custom configurations, see “About Custom 
Module Configurations” on page 10.
