- 6.1.11.3 Processing
- These are the programmed processing defaults for the modules. Depending on the startup settings these processing defaults will be used at startup (programmed defaults in global configuration).The field ‘Use at source select’ determines if the default module processing in the source configuration is used when a source is assigned via the module source select functionality and no processing preset is assigned in the ‘source configuration’.

4.2 Communication
All control communication takes place with MambaNet and gives the surface flexibility and power to
the AXUM digital audio system. To understand the AXUM digital audio system it would help to know
some principles of MambaNet.
MambaNet definitions:
- Objects
A fader, switch will have to trigger an action in the AXUM digital audio system. In MambaNet,
we call these faders and switches ‘objects’.
- Nodes
In the hardware the faders and switches are grouped on modular blocks (think of a single
PCB), such blocks are represented as ‘nodes’ in MambaNet.
- Engine
In the Axum digital system the engine is in fact your mixing console. The functions available in
the ‘engine’ can connect to one or more objects found in your network.
In practice, this means you can connect any surface element like switches and faders to any function
of your mixing console(s). From now on, you can design your own functionality at the control surface.
Information for manufacturers and developers is located at
http://www.mambanet.org, it is possible to
make your own communication with the mixing system; we have a MambaNet library available for
Windows (DLL) and Linux (lib).
For professional developers it is possible to buy a Manufacture ID from D&R so you are able to make
your own equipment compatible with the MambaNet protocol. Secondly, local radio stations can use
manufacturer ID 0xFFFF for some custom implementations.
(All manufacturer IDs are unique except the 0xFFFF, which is free for ‘in-house’ implementation)
