Flexible control options – The AXP 50 C AT can be controlled using the DSP
•
Configurator Software and a PC connection to the Ethernet port. The AXP 50 C AT can
also be controlled through a control system with Extron SIS - Simple Instruction Set
commands.
• Copy and paste for processing blocks – To help speed audio system design and
setup, parameter settings can be quickly copied between individual processing blocks
or identical groups of blocks within the Graphical User Environment, using conventional
cut-and-paste commands.
Building Blocks processor settings – A collection of pre-designed processor
•
settings optimized for a specific type of input device, such as microphones, with preset
levels, filters, dynamics, and more. Flexible Building Blocks are available on each input
strip and allow system designers to fully customize and save their own Building Blocks,
further streamlining audio system design and integration.
Live and Emulate operation modes with configuration file saving – Live mode
•
allows integrators to connect to the AXP 50 C AT and make live parameter adjustments
while hearing or metering them in real-time. This avoids the need to compile and upload
a configuration file to the DSP. Emulate mode allows settings to be configured offline,
then uploaded to the AXP 50 C AT. Additionally, current settings on an AXP 50 C AT can
be backed up to a configuration file for archiving.
• SpeedNav keyboard navigation – SpeedNav enables user-friendly, keyboard-based
navigation of the DSP Configurator Software without the need for a mouse or touchpad.
Using keyboard navigation keys and shortcuts, the user can access any input and all
audio DSP tools. Using only the keyboard for software access can help expedite audio
system setup and optimization while on-site using laptop PCs.
Front panel input signal presence and clipping LEDs – The AXP 50 C AT provides
•
LEDs on the front panel for each input, for real-time monitoring of signal presence. A
separate LED illuminates as a warning whenever analog signal clipping is detected.
• Ethernet monitoring and control – Engineered to meet the needs of professional AV
environments, Ethernet control enables the AXP 50 C AT to be proactively monitored
and managed over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet, using standard TCP/IP protocols.
