4.4 Principle of operation
4.4.1
AXUM system
The AXUM system will be build up around the matrix/router that gives a lot of routing flexibility. Up to 4
DSP cards can be inserted to create mixing power as requested. For example, you can create with
one AXUM system (equipped with one DSP card):
-
A single mixing console with 32 stereo modules and 16 stereo busses
-
Multiple mixing consoles (maximal 4), 3 consoles are used in our example:
1 consoles with 16 stereo modules and 6 stereo busses
1 consoles with 12 stereo modules and 6 stereo busses
1 console 4 stereo modules and 4 stereo busses
This makes clear we do not talk over
a ‘mixing console’, the AXUM is an audio-platform!
Depending on the configuration, you can make your own studio console(s)/surface functionality. Al this
power is controlled and configured by the AXUM engine. This engine configuration is described in
detail later on.
4.4.2
Mixing console
As mentioned before the configuration is done within the Axum engine, now we will give a short
overview/introduction on the structure of the mixing console(s) platform solution of the engine.
For the configuration of the busses, monitor busses and modules you can setup to which console it
should belong (1-4). Finally the engine will extract a ‘assignment’ picture from this information which
shows clearly the console blocks.
