Assignable Controls
Between the screen and the fader bank are the 8
assignable rotaries and buttons. These controls
are scrolled using the vertical arrow keys, and
address the function of all primary rotary and
switch functions on the channels populating this
area of the console. The ALT button selects the
alternative function (if one is available) for each
area. Assignable rotaries can be used for input
gain, compressor and gate threshold, aux send
levels, pan.
Surround Sound
In addition to normal stereo and SIS operation, the
PRO1 can operate in one of three surround sound
modes:
Quad Four-channel L-R front plus L-R rear
LCRS Four-channel L-C-R plus single rear channel
5.1 Six-channel L-C-R plus Sub plus L-R rear
All three surround modes feature divergence con-
trol to tailor the depth of the surround panning.
Dynamic surround panning can be implemented
using the PRO1’s trackball, or the USB pointing
device of your choice.
FX
The PRO1’s 40 bit oating-point audio processing
hosts a wide choice of virtual FX devices,
which range from dual-stereo delay units,
stereo modulation and many diverse reverb
FX, multiband compression, dynamic EQ and
multichannel dual-function dynamics processing.
All FX processors are custom-designed to
function within the MIDAS automatic latency
compensation system. This ensures a phase-
coherent sample-accurate mix regardless of
whether the FX devices are used as channel
inserts or on a send-and-return basis.
Delay FX can be individually congured to
synchronise to the PRO1’s GLOBAL TAP-TEMPO
hardware button. This makes on-the-y changes
to delay eects childs’ play.
Remote Control
Remote control of the PRO1 can be achieved
using an iPad and wireless access point. Install the
PRO1 remote app on the iPad and connect the
WAP to the PRO1’s Ethernet control port, having
congured the wireless link.
I/O Options
The PRO1 is MIDAS’ rst stand-alone digital
console with 24 inputs located on the rear panel.
However there are a number of optional MIDAS
digital I/O units – either with xed or modular
congurations - which can be connected by
inexpensive Cat5-e cable that will expand the
input count to 48. To further increase exibility
a number of I/O boxes can be connected to the
PRO1, up to 100m (300ft) cable distance from the
console, allowing audio point-to-point routing
of up to 100 inputs x 102 outputs from anywhere
within the Network.
Oine Editor
The MIDAS Oine Editor will create, edit and
view show les for a PRO1 on any Intel-based
Apple Mac computer. The Oine Editor allows
full control of all parameters – including creation
of show les, management of pre-set libraries,
system setup and patching and so on. Anything
that can be done on the console can be done
on the Oine Editor, without learning any new
operational procedures.
