MC includes a 5.1 monitor section, twin trackballs, standardfull-size keyboard, eight programmable knobs, four full-throwtouch-sensitive moving faders and 56 programmable LCD SmartSwitches,together with a small touch screen for fast access to the unit’sprogrammable features. When using a Cubase version older than Cubase 5.5 or a Nuendo version older than Nuendo 7, these devices also require an EuCon Artist license on USB-eLicenser. In development is the new Euphonix “MC” editorialcontroller, which gives users high-speed control of not only EuConaware applications such as Nuendo, but also any PC application viakeystroke commands programmed into the MC’s LCD SmartSwitches.The MC’s programmable buttons switch functions with eachdifferent application running on the host PC for excellent speed ofoperation. Audio from the DAWs feeds into System 5’s DSP Core viaRME MADI cards and the StudioHub router. The operator will beable to bring each individual track from any of the DAWs up on theSystem 5 control surface, as well as handle all audio patching betweensystems.

This architecture will allow several multiple DAWs to be controlledfrom a System 5 for film-dubbing applications. StudioHub isnow available with a stand-alone PC application to patch hundreds ofconnections together. The new PCI MADI card from RMEallows simple and inexpensive digital connectivity between PC audioworkstations and Euphonix’s 768×768 StudioHub digital router,which can act as a facility digital audio patch system. The Euphonix EuCon open protocol, initially designed toallow System 5 surface modules to control Euphonix’s own DSP, isused for this high speed connectivity. During the past year, Euphonix has been working closely withSteinberg to allow System 5 consoles to act as control surfaces for theNuendo DAW.
