    The above example shows a C8612 (Name: “AC3 Encoder”) in a typically processing chain. Clicking on the spanner tool within the module graphics of the C8612 will open the pages of that module. If you click on the switch tool you will get the page for changing Presets only.
  • Page 5 C8000 modular processing system C8612 Dolby Digital / Digtal plus / Pulse (AAC) encoder PRESETS Because this device has two independent encoders, the Dolby metadata and setup presets may be assigned to one or both encoders if necessary.
  • Page 6 Simply press <COPY TO CLIPBOARD> and the phrase : "[c8612 "device name"] <PASTE>" will appear. Now you can use the <PASTE> soft button on other C8012 modules within this frame to paste these presets into the modules NV memory.

  • Page 16 Here you define the level of the main program for the receiver mix. Auto Mixing Set of parameters used by the decoder to control the auto mix. The C8612 supports the ducking mode. I.e. you can set the parameters for the ducking circuit at the receiver end. Auto Voice Over Mode [off, on] You may turn the auto mixing off and on here.
  • Page 17 Dolby Digital plus encoded stereo and audio descriptive channel. In this case the existing Warble Tone content can still be used. The C8612 simply decodes the Warble track and translates this into mixing meta data.

  • Page 20 You can also assign GPO numbers which will indicate the respective action : E.g. if a Preset x is loaded the C8612 puts the associated GPO number on the CAN bus. The GPI/O module permanently listens for such numbers. If it reads such number it will engage the respective GPO (see C8817 manual for details).
