M.A.R.S.
Every standard Eclipse includes M.A.R.S. (Multitrack Audio
Recording System), the name of Eclipse’s integrated hard disk
recorder. The system provides 64 tracks of recording allowing
playback of sound checks at different venues without the band
being present.
M.A.R.S. connects to the rest of the system via the Ethersound
network. Consoles ship with a pre-installed Ethersound cable
allowing you to play back the demo song instantly.
Audio recording is managed by the M.A.R.S. control computer
(separate from Nova), and audio files are stored on the
removable hard disk at the rear of the Eclipse frame.
A dedicated control panel switches the touch-screen between
M.A.R.S. and Nova, and provides rapid access to recording and
playback functions:
Additional functions are accessible from the M.A.R.S. touch-
screen displays:
For more details on M.A.R.S. please see Page 444.
