Surround Sound Processing
Surround sound is increasingly required for areas such as DVD, film pre-mixing, audio
postproduction,etc.As standard,5.1 surround sound. Furthermore, unique to the DMX-R100,
high rate (96 kHz/88.2 kHz) processing is available in 5.1 surround.When high rate processing
is selected, the buses and inputs of the DMX-R100 software are reconfigured as follows:
Optional Expansion Boards
For input/output expansion, the DMX-R100 has
four option board slots.There are eight optional
input/output boards,seven of which allow the user
to flexibly expand input/outputs in groups of
eight. The eighth optional board,the DMBK-R109
MADI board,allows the addition of 48 inputs/48
outputs via a single board slot. By installing the
MADI board in one slot* and the appropriate
boards in the three remaining slots, an incredible
72 inputs/outputs become available through the
option board slots.As detailed in the chart, the
DMX-R100 also interfaces to most popular audio
recorders using the appropriate input/output board.
*The DMBK-R109 can only be installed in ‘slot-4’ of
the DMX-R100.

Additional Features
◆ No cooling fans are used in the DMX-R100
so it does not generate any acoustic noise.
◆ Equipped with separate word and video
reference input connectors, as well as its
own internal reference generator. It also
provides multiple machine control with its
two 9-pin and MIDI ports. This means that
the DMX-R100 can be integrated into any
multimedia facility without the need for
external synchronization equipment.
◆ Two DMX-R100’s can be cascaded (connect-
ed) using the optional DMBK-R109 MADI
boards,creating a 96-channel mixer. Since
48 faders become available, this reduces the
need for resorting to paging channel faders.
Cascade connection at double sample
(96kHz/88.2 kHz) rate is also supported.
◆ The PGM/MTR/AUX buses each have an
internal switch to select the bus linkange
status (Linked or not) between the master
mixer and sub mixer on an individual basis.
The AFL bus and solo logic of the master
mixer are shared between the master and
sub mixer, emulating the operation of a
single 96-channel mixer.
◆ Channel Scribble function allows the entry
of names for individual input sources, which
then appear on the touch screen next to the
channel number.A maximum of seven
characters can be entered for each input, and
the scribble is displayed in the Channel,EQ
and Dynamics GUI screens.
SIU-100 System Interface
The optional SIU-100 is designed for greater system
flexibility in applications such as broadcast & post
production, and the need for expanded I/O in
recording and PA scenarios. Used stand-alone or as
an expansion for the DMX-R100, the 5U rackmount
SIU-100 accommodates up to eight DMX-R100 style
expansion boards,offering a variety of analog and
digital inputs and outputs, and high quality microphone preamps.
The SIU-100 interfaces with the DMX-R100 or DAW via the MADI interface, allowing you to
position the two units up to 300 meters apart. The Ethernet control capability, gives you the freedom
to install the SIU-100 as desired,while also keeping settings at your fingertips.
Surround panning is accomplished via the Pan Assign
page on the touch screen – by simply tracing the desired
panning pattern with a fingertip on the smooth surface
of the screen.Alternatively, a PC mouse connected on the
back panel of the mixer can be used.
The DMX-R100 has six outputs for the control room
monitor, so surround sound monitoring is achieved
without sacrificing other outputs and without the need
for external monitor switching.
