Studio Manager Version 2
The DM2000 Studio Manager application has undergone a significant evolution and has been reborn as Studio Manager Version 2.
The hybrid Windows ® /Macintosh ® Studio Manager application has been rewritten as a host application
which hosts the DM2000 Editor which actually controls the DM2000 console, and which can be used simultaneously
with other editors for professional digital audio gear such as the 02R96 Version 2 digital mixer or the SPX2000 professional multi-effect processor.
Simply connect the console to a computer via its TO HOST port (combined USB/serial), and the computer functions
as comprehensive control center for the entire system. You can even open and close Studio Manager Version 2 windows
from the DM2000 console controls, for seamless system integration and optimum operation efficiency in any application.
STUDIO MANAGER Version 2 also integrates an advanced GUI for the new VCM and ISSP effects.
DM2000 Editor
The DM2000 Editor runs under the Studio Manager Version 2 host application, and offers features and functionality
that have been refined and updated for professional-level control. Some of the most significant updates include:
■ Master Fader Window provides independent master fader display and control.
■ Meter Window shows levels on all 96 channels.
■ A new Automix tab has been added to the library windows.
■ Layer Window allows selection and display of effects and other sources above the panel pan controls.
■ Selected Channel Window adds graphic gate displays and long-stroke channel metering.
■ Patch Edit Window is now resizable, and displays effect block inputs and outputs.
■ Effect Editor Window adds a VCM and ISSP effect interface and fine control.
