The Local Rack is located near the main
Console surface, and links to the surface
are via a simple Cat5 data link cable, plus
three audio connections for headphones,
left/right and Talkback microphone.
The Local Rack houses the SCore Live, the
DSP engine that runs all the processing
for the system.
In addition to receiving the 64 (or 48)
Inputs and returning the 32 (or 27)
outputs to the stagebox, the local rack has
additional I/O.
There are 16 Analogue line inputs and 16
analogue line outputs available on the
local rack, plus as standard 8 pairs of
AES/EBU inputs and outputs. This means
that there are in total 96 potential input
connections, 64 of which may be mixed
simultaneously.
Local Rack
There is also an optical MADI I/O card
which provides an additional 64 channels
of input and output for applications such
as hard disk recording or broadcast feeds.
This can feed a ProTools™ system if a 3rd
party interface is used.
Rack hardware
The Local Rack is housed in a flight-cased
rack, the total capacity it occupies is 10U
(10 rack units) including the fan and filter
units (these are not shown above).
The Local Rack is normally supplied in a
flightcase, but can also be mounted in an
installation rack, along with the fan and
filter unit.
