Differences between DME64N/24N
The DME64N has four I/O card slots, while the DME24N has one I/O card slot and eight channels of built-
in analog audio I/O.
A single I/O card can handle up to 16 channels of audio I/O, so the DME64N can handle a maximum of 64
audio I/O channels. The DME24N can handle up to 24 audio I/O channels.
The DME64N has approximately double the DSP processing power of the DME24N.
DME64N/24N Features
In addition to basic mixing and matrix output functions, the DME64N/24N includes a equalizers, compressors,
delay, etc. – that can be patched together via DME Designer to configure just about any audio system you need.
Audio System Network
Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system.
In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;”
audio processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area ser-
viced by the acoustic system is called an “area.”
Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all
other DME series units in the same device group.
If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the
group master.
Glossary for the DME64N/24N
This section explains terminology specific to the DME64N/24N.
Components and parameters
The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.”
External head amplifier control modules are also available as components.
Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.
Configuration
A “configuration” is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system.
Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME64N/24N unit.
All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called “preset parameters.”
One DME64N/24N unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parame-
ters.
User Defined buttons
Assigning parameters to be User Defined Buttons enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the
DME64N/DME24N.
Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for details.
