About Automix

The DM1000 features an Automix function, which allows dynamic automation of virtually
all mix parameters, including Levels, Mutes, Pan, Surround Pan, Aux Sends, Aux Send
Mutes, EQ, and effects.
Various mixing events can be recorded in Automix. You can also punch channels or param-
eters in and out of recording on-the-fly, and edit most parameters off-line with 1/4 frame
accuracy. Remote layer operations, and Scene and library recall operations can also be auto-
mated, which enables you to create mix automation that combines snap shots and dynamic
mix parameter changes.
You can store up to 16 Automixes in the Automix library. You can also store an Automix or
the entire Automix library to an external MIDI device, such as a MIDI data filer, by using
MIDI Bulk Dump.
The following parameter events can be recorded in an Automix:
Channel levels (faders)
Channel mutes (ON/OFF)
Pan
Surround pan, LFE level, and DIV
EQ (F, Q, G, On/Off)
