  • Page 2: Introduction

    Introduction This document describes the new features of DME32 Version 1.5 and should be used in conjunction with the original DME32 Owner’s Manual . 32x32 & 32x16 Matrix Mixer Components The new 32x32 and 32x16 Matrix Mixer components, shown below, allow the creation of even larger matrix mixing systems.
  • Page 3 When a channel is soloed, “SOLO OFF” changes to “SOLO ON.” This is convenient on control windows where the input channels are organized into pages and it’s not possible to see all SOLO buttons simultaneously. For components with five or more outputs (i.e., five or more bus level controls per input channel), the bus level controls in the IN section can be scrolled up or down by clicking the two arrow buttons shown here.
  • Page 4: Stereo Peq & Geq Components

    Stereo PEQ & GEQ Components The five new stereo PEQ (parametric equalizer) and three new stereo GEQ (graphic equalizer) components make it easier to process stereo signals. Essentially these are ste- reo versions of the existing EQ components. The five stereo PEQ components are shown below. Each stereo PEQ component features two inputs and two outputs.
  • Page 5 The EQ graph at the top of the window displays the EQ settings graphically, as shown in the following example. The number of each EQ band appears along the top of the graph. In addition to using the rotary controls, the frequency (F) and gain (G) parameters for each band can be set by dragging the small circles on the EQ graph.
  • Page 6 The three stereo GEQ components are shown below. Each GEQ control window consists of five sections: INPUT, HPF, LPF, EQ bands, and OUTPUT. The center frequency of each band is shown above each slider. Since the only difference between all the GEQ components is the number of bands, only the stereo 15 BAND GEQ control window is shown here.
  • Page 7: Parameter Value Copy

    Parameter Value Copy Parameter values can now be copied and pasted among parameters of the same type on a component. Select the control whose value you want to copy by clicking it. The selected control is highlighted by a green box. Copy will not work if several controls are selected.
  • Page 8: Recall Safe

    Recall Safe With the new Recall Safe function, parameter settings can be left unchanged when scenes are recalled. Recall safe can be applied at the configuration, component, or parameter level. Recall safe applies to rotary controls, sliders, and buttons but not combo boxes (e.g., the SLOPE &...
  • Page 9: Keyboard & Scrolling Mouse Control

    Choose Recall Safe. The selected component is made safe. Next time this menu is accessed for this compo- nent, a check mark is displayed next to “Recall Safe”, indicating that the component is safe. Safe components are not changed when scenes are recalled. To turn off recall safe, access the previous menu and choose Recall Safe again.
  • Page 10: Program Library

    Program Library With the new program library, up to 100 user programs can be stored for each EQ, dynamics, and effects component. Programs are stored to disk in the “Lib” folder of the DME program folder, from which they can be recalled in other configurations. EQ, dynamics, and effects components feature a Library button, like the one shown below, that is used to access the Library functions.
  • Page 11: Recalling Programs

    Click OK. A confirmation dialog box appears. Click Yes to store the program, or click No to cancel. The program is stored and its title appears in the program list, as shown below. Click Close when you’ve finished. Recalling Programs Open an EQ, dynamics, or effects control window.
  • Page 12 Deleting Programs Open an EQ, dynamics, or effects control window. Click the Library button. The Library window opens, as shown below. Select the program that you want to delete. Click the Delete button. A confirmation dialog box appears. Click Yes to delete the program, or click No to cancel. The program is deleted.
  • Page 13: Fade Time

    Fade Time Previously, level faders jumped to their new positions the instant a scene was recalled. With the new Fade Time function, you can now specify a fade time of up to 60 sec- onds—ideal for fade ins, fade outs, and crossfades. A Fade Time can be applied to all level faders or to individual Fader component faders.
  • Page 14 turned on are affected. The Fader component Fade buttons, which are new to Version 1.5, are shown below on the 8-channel Fader component’s control window. Click Apply to apply your settings and leave the Fade Time window open, click OK to apply your settings and close the window, or click Cancel to leave the settings unchanged and close the window.
  • Page 15: Improved Node Labelling

    Improved Node Labelling For components with many inputs and outputs, certain nodes are now labeled in order to help distinguish them more easily. This applies to components with five or more input or output nodes, with every fourth node being labelled (e.g., 4, 8, 12, and so on). The new node numbers can be seen here on the new 32x32 Matrix Mixer component.
  • Page 16: Editing Multiple Parameters Simultaneously

    Editing Multiple Parameters Simultaneously Previously, using DME Manager, only one parameter could be edited at a time. In Ver- sion 1.5, up to eight parameters of the same type can be selected and edited simulta- neously. While holding down the Shift key, click the parameters that you want to edit. The selected controls are highlighted by green boxes.
