Chapter 10: M.A.R.S.
Introduction
M.A.R.S. (Multitrack Audio Recording System) is an integrated
64-track hard disk recorder which is fitted as standard to every
Eclipse mixing console. A dedicated control panel under the
console touch-screen provides rapid access to recording and
playback functions. Additional functions are accessible from the
touch-screen display.
M.A.R.S. is designed for recording and playing back audio in
preparation for a live show or production. The most common
application is to record the sound check so that it can be replayed
later as a “virtual sound check”.
M.A.R.S. exists in its own right as a stand-alone hard disk
recorder. When integrated into Eclipse, the system is known as
M.A.R.S. (Multitrack Audio Recording System). When used with
other systems, the recorder is called MT128.
This chapter describes the operation of M.A.R.S. with Eclipse, and
concentrates on common tasks such as recording and playing
back a sound check. For details on all the functions provided by
the MT128 recording system, please refer to the documentation
