D950/Vista Digital Mixing System
4-22 GC Operation SW V3.3 Date printed: 05.08.03
4.4.2.1.3 What Subcategories are There?
There are basically seven different subcategories for each of the Sources
and Targets Lists:
Sources Targets
Digital In Channel In1
Dir Out Channel In2
Insert Send Insert Return
Bus Out Digital Out
Generator Channel In3
Ext Source Dyn Ext Key
Ext D19 Mic/line Pre Ext Target
Each subcategory contains a number of Sources or Targets, depending on
the current Session Configuration. Sometimes certain sections will not be
present; for example, if no Channel Inserts have been configured, there
will be no Insert Send section within the Sources List, and no Insert Return
section within the Targets List.
The size of the X-Y General Patch automatically adapts to the number of
channels, input interfaces, output interfaces, and to the presence of DSP
function blocks in the channels – as defined in the Session Configuration.
Some detail information on the sections:
Sources List: Digital In: All input audio interfaces (AES/EBU, MADI, or D21m A/D converters).
Dir Out: All Direct Outputs of all channel types.
Insert Send: Sends from the inserts of all channel types.
Bus Out: Unlike analog consoles, with the D950/Vista any bus is a valid audio sig-
nal source; AUX Mono Bus 12 can be used to feed an output interface, or
to become an input to an input channel.
Generator: The Test Generator’s signal.
Ext Source: This is not an audio signal, but a logical Source to be used in conjunction
with future A/D converters (not used in this software version).
Ext D19 Mic/Line Pre: This is not an audio signal, but a logical Source to be used in conjunction
with the remote-controlled D19m Mic/Line Pre-amps/converters.
Targets List: Channel In1: First audio input to all channel types,
• Free to use for all input channels,
• Used for default connection of the corresponding Bus for an output chan-
nel, such as a Group, Master, or Aux channel.
Channel In2: Second audio input to all channel types,
• Free for all input and output channels.
Insert Return: Returns to the inserts of all channel types.
Digital Out: All output audio interfaces (AES/EBU or MADI, D/A converters).
Channel In3: Third audio input to all channel types,
• Used for the Test Generator connection per default,
• Can be re-patched to any source at any time.
Dyn Ext Key: Input for the external control signal (key) to the Dynamics Sidechain of all
channel types.
Ext Target: This is not an audio signal, but a logical Target to be used in conjunction
with external converters.
