Getting Started with Digi 00284
Dynamics
Input channels 1–4 have a dedicated, in-line
compressor, with controls for the following pa-
rameters:
• Input gain
• Threshold
• Compression ratio
• Attack and release times
• Hard or soft knee (slope)
• Phase inversion
• Output gain
EQ
Each of the 8 Input channels has a dedicated, in-
line 3-band equalizer, consisting of the follow-
ing:
• Switchable high pass/low shelf EQ band
• Parametric EQ band
• Switchable low pass/high shelf EQ band
These EQ bands can be used in conjunction
with the built-in hardware high-pass filters
available on Inputs 1–4.
Mixer Outputs
Main Outputs In Stand-alone mode, all 8 Input
channels, the Delay return, and the Reverb re-
turn are summed to outputs 1–2, which are
routed to the Main Outputs, Alt Main Outputs,
and the S/PDIF outputs on the back panel of
Digi 002. Outputs 1–2 are also mirrored on the
Monitor Outputs and Headphone Output.
ADAT Optical Outputs In Stand-alone mode all 8
Input channels are passed directly to the 8
ADAT Optical Outputs, pre-fader, pre-effects,
except for the high-pass filter on channels 1–4.
This allows you to route input signals directly to
an ADAT device without repatching cables.
Entering Stand-Alone Mode
You can put Digi 002 into Stand-alone Mode
when the unit is in Standby Mode or in
Pro Tools Mode. However, if Digi 002 is in
Pro Tools Mode when you put it in Stand-alone
Mode, communication with Pro Tools is sus-
pended, and Pro Tools posts a warning dialog,
allowing you to either return to Pro Tools mode,
or save your session and quit Pro Tools.
To put Digi 002 in Stand-alone Mode:
1 Press the Standalone switch on the right-hand
side of the Digi 002 top panel. Digi 002 displays
“Enter Standalone Mode? Yes/No.”
2 Press the flashing Channel Select switch under
“Yes” to enter Stand-alone Mode. Press the
switch under “No” to remain in the previous
state.
To exit Stand-alone Mode:
■ Press the Standalone switch a second time.
Digi 002 goes into Standby Mode, or enters
Pro Tools mode automatically if Pro Tools soft-
ware is still running.
If you enter Stand-alone Mode while you are
in Pro Tools Mode, Pro Tools software will
prompt you to either exit Standalone Mode
or quit Pro Tools. If a Pro Tools session is
open, you can save the session before quit-
ting Pro Tools.
