Let's take a moment to preview some of the main features and benefits of the
DA7.
The Fader Layer controls permits you to mix and monitor the 32 inputs, the
6 aux sends and the 6 aux returns, the 8 buses, and the unique
CUSTOM/MIDI layer. By not tying up input channels for outboard effects the
6 dedicated aux return faders provide extra inputs, for a total of 38 audio
inputs.
The DA7 is digitally controlled which allows you to automate all your mixer
functions, from mixing and MIDI parameters, to dynamics and effects.
Multiple LEDs provide instantaneous display of channel/bus/aux assignments,
as well as automation recording status.
The DA7 comes with internal memory to store fifty EQ libraries, fifty
Dynamics libraries, fifty Channel libraries, plus fifty different scene memories.
Using optional software, you can store these memories in a computer and
save an unlimited number of these memories.
5.1 surround sound mixing is built into the DA7 with multiple methods of
surround sound panning available on each channel.
Option cards expand the capabilities of the DA7. For example, the ability to
synchronize to videotape, using the SMPTE interface option card, makes it
easy to score or sweeten for film or television. There are other options that
expand the capabilities of the DA7, including a Meter Bridge, Mixing
Automation eXpansion software (MAX, for both Windows and Mac) and a
Tandem card that connects two DA7's together.
Audio Input/Output option interface cards can be mixed and matched for a
particular project. You can have any type of audio option card installed and
transfer from one format to another without the need of outboard devices.
For instance, you could have an ADAT card and an AES/EBU card and transfer
from your Digital Audio Workstation to your ADAT, or vice versa.
There are four audio Input/Output option cards available: ADAT, TDIF,
AES/EBU - S/PDIF and an Analog card. Any audio card works in any slot.
