Digital Patching
In addition to powerful mixing features, Eclipse includes a digital
patch accessible from the Nova PATCH INPUT, PATCH
OUTPUT and PATCH DIRECT displays:
All three displays are similar in operation:
• PATCH INPUT – patches physical sources to channels.
For example, to patch a microphone from the DioCore to
an input fader.
• PATCH OUTPUT – patches output channels (mix
busses) to physical destinations. For example, to patch
an Aux to a monitor wedge.
• PATCH DIRECT - allows patching of physical sources
directly to physical destinations. For example to feed a
microphone input to an AES output for recording. This
grid also allows you to declare the insert list (inputs and
outputs declared as insert sends and insert returns).
Inputs and outputs may be local (at the rear of the console) or
remote (in a DioCore, other Ethersound device or Muxipaire
Stagebox). And multiple devices may be networked in order to
share I/O resources.
Perhaps the most important feature of the digital patch is that all
crosspoints are stored and recalled. This reduces any manual
patching to the absolute minimum and allows you to recall the
same show at a new venue within seconds!
