The Dsc (Digital Studio Control) Module - Euphonix CS3000 Operation Manual

Section 1: Introduction
The DSC
(Digital Studio
Control) Module
Digital Control
The Digital Studio Control
Module (DSC) is the central
control module that is required
to run MixView software
Versions 2.4 and later. The unit
is available to retrofit into
systems without it.
The DSC provides a highly
sophisticated integrated control
surface with built-in color TFT
display, eliminating the need for
an external graphics monitor.
Designed with present and
future development in mind, the
entire control surface of the
DSC is under software control.
Software updates continue to
add functionality to the surface
and extend system control for
external MIDI effects devices,
and GPI relays for fader starts,
speaker mutes, and multitrack
machines.
The Assignable Rotary Control
Set at the top of the module can
be used to adjust EQ and
dynamics parameters, Audio
CUBE aux sends, bus trims, and
multi-format panning. The DSC supports MIDI Machine Control, Assignable Moving Fader control and Assign-
able Keys with 8-character alphanumeric displays. The Master Control Panel (the SmartDisplay, SpinKnob, &
keypad) at the bottom right of the DSC works in conjunction with the QWERTY keyboard for Mix Controller and
support computer interface.
The flat active-matrix, 256-color screen, eliminates the need for an external monitor and becomes part of the
console surface, integrating with the Assignable Rotary Control Set at the top of the module. As part of the
surface, the screen display interacts with the DSC controls, providing the engineer with unique feedback on
system and control status which would be impossible with conventional mixing console systems. The use of
this technology enables the Euphonix to build on traditional console interfaces and at the same time introduces
a new and exciting way of controlling an entire studio as an integrated system.
