Overview
The large studio offers playback over 12 Meyer loudspeakers.
Routing of in- and outputs is provided (digitally) by a SuperCollider based application, simply called the matrix, which is run on a dedicated computer system (also referred to as The Matrix).
A workstation computer offers access to some licensed and free software for audio production and digital signal processing. It is connected to the matrix by a MADI audio card, which offers 64 in- and outputs (respectively) for a sample rate of 44.1 or 48kHz and 32 in- and outputs (respectively) for 88.2 or 96kHz.
External computers can interface the studio using an RME Fireface UFX. An RME Micstasy offers eight microphone preamps.
All hardware is clocked by a central wordclock in EN326 (i.e. all hardware uses the same sample rate).
Usage
Power-On
- Turn power key to 1
- Switch off Wordclock in EN326
- Switch on Matrix system for EN324
- Switch on Wordclock, when the boot sound of Matrix system is heard
- Switch on work station
- Switch on loudspeakers
Power-Off
- Switch off the loudspeakers
- Shut down work station (if applicable) and matrix (if applicable)
- Turn power key to 0
Change Sample Rate
- Power-On
- Change the sample rate in the wordclock menu called mode operation basic clock to the desired frequency
- Change sample rate for MADI MADI cards on the matrix
- Power-Off
- Power-On
Select MADI Workstation
You can use either the MacPro in the machine room or your own notebook as workstation device using an USB-MADI-Interface which can be rent from the studio. The MADI-Bridge services as routing device for the MADI-Inputs and outputs to and from the matrix. It provides eight MADI in/out streams, which can be managed using the up and down buttons besides the displays.
