10.The Encoder/Decoder
are inserted into the
monitor chain using
the IN switch.
11/12. Three Stereo and
three Surround
MONITOR SOURCES
are provided. REC
selects the ‘direct’ bus
signal from the console
or DAW. PLAY A and
PLAY B may be any
external signal, but
typically the recorder
returns.
Three interlocking
modes can be set
independently for the
Stereo and Surround
sources but note that
selecting any Stereo
source always cancels
a previously selected
Surround source and
vice versa.
The Default interlock
mode causes each
Stereo source to
automatically cancel
any other Stereo
source. The same
logic applies to the
Surround sources.
Two additional modes,
Lock and Gang are
provided.
SOURCE SELECTION
THE ASP510 allows three
surround (up to 5.1) and
three stereo sources to be
monitored.
The source selections can
be set to interlock in three
ways: Normal, Lock and
Gang.
Normal mode provides the
usual self cancelling
selection interlocks.
Lock allows one or more of
the sources (eg a dialogue
stem) to be permanently
selected.
Gang provides a simple
method of ‘grouping’ two
or more sources or stems
so that they can be
selected together with a
single button push.
An encoder/decoder pair
can be switched into the
monitoring chain for
confidence checking
material intended to be
distributed in Dolby Surround
format for example.
To LOCK a Stereo (or
Surround) source, hold
down the relevant
select button until it
stops flashing. This
source is now Locked
and will always be
active when any Stereo
(Surround) source is
selected.To lock a
second or third source
simply repeat this
action. To cancel, hold
down the button until
it extinguishes.
To GANG together two
or more of the Stereo
(or Surround) sources,
hold down the first
member of the Gang
until it flashes then
release it and hold
down the second
member until it too
flashes and release it.
The third source can be
added to the gang in
the same way. To
release members from
the Gang hold down
the relevant source
select until it
extinguishes and then
release it.
