About Automix

The DM2000's Automix function allows dynamic automation of virtually all mix parame-
ters, including Levels, Mutes, Pan, Surround Pan, Aux/Matrix Sends, Aux/Matrix Send
Mutes, EQ, effects, and Plug-Ins. You can specify which of these parameters will be
recorded, and punch channels in and out of recording on-the-fly. User Defined Remote
Layer operations, and scene and library recall operations can also be automated, combining
snap shot and dynamic mix automation. Events are recorded in real time and can be edited
either offline, with 1/4 frame accuracy, or by rerecording with punch in/out. Automix can
be synchronized to an external timecode source or to the internal timecode generator.
Up to 16 Automixes can be stored in the Automix library. See "Automix Library" on page
147 for more information. They can also be stored to an external MIDI device, such as a
MIDI data filer, by using MIDI Bulk Dump (see page 187), or stored to SmartMedia (see
page 231).
