Surround Panning - Midas PRO6 Owner's Manual

Surround panning

SIS image control knob centred (equal power)
With both the SIS image and pan control
knobs centred, the signal is routed to all
three speakers with equal power.
Surround panning
There are three surround panning modes: quad, LCRS and 5.1. These are assigned on
a channel wide basis, that is, if the control centre is in 5.1 all channels are in 5.1. This
allows control and distribution of the three surround formats without re-patching. The
same applies to monitoring. Table 4 "Surround panning bus routing" on page 113
illustrates this.
For more information on surround panning, see "Surround panning" on page 100. For
information on the set-up for each mode, see Figure 29 "Connections for a quad
surround system" on page 247, Figure 30 "Connections for an LCRS surround system"
on page 248 and Figure 31 "Connections for a 5.1 surround system" on page 249.

Simultaneous generation of stereo masters, mono masters, stereo auxes, mono auxes,
stereo matrices and mono matrices (excluding buses 1 to 6) is possible in all surround
modes. However, SIS™ panning to masters is not possible.
Operation of the monitor system in surround or stereo is a mode selection that can be
made independently or in conjunction with the surround bussing on the control centre,
that is, you can still monitor and solo in stereo, even if you are producing a 5.1 mix.
