prises the following modules:

Directory
System 5 has the following file hierarchy: Drives - Projects -
Titles - Mixes. A project is a folder which contains Titles.
A project is like a folder and can be used to house all an oper-
ator’s Titles or all Titles in a Show. The Titles are where all the
important data relating to a session is stored.
The directory includes all the features you would expect from a
file management system such as copy, paste, rename, open and
close. The eMix computer includes a large hard disk, recordable
CD-RW drive and floppy drive. The CD-RW can be used to store
and remove Project/Title information. Loading a Title brings back
all the stored information about that title including Last Setup,
Layouts, Meter Presets, SnapShots and, most importantly, the
PatchNet digital patchbay.
PatchNet
See previous page.
System Mixer Models
eMix allows the combination of channels, buses and externals
to be changed very simply so that the system can be tailored to
each application and installation.
Mix, Group, Fold-Down,
External Setup
Sections of eMix allow the mix and group bus formats, external
formats and monitor fold down to be defined. Up to 48 external
devices are available and can be set to be any format and can also
be named such as 5.1 format DVD player or stereo CD player.
