Engine Structure
The core element of Mainframe 6000 is the 4 Engine
structure. This structure enables you to run up to four
powerful algorithms/presets simultaneously. Each Engine is
capable of utilizing up to 8 Inputs and 8 Outputs, depending
on the selected algorithm/preset. Up to 16 physical Input
and 16 physical Output channels can be routed in the most
flexible way.
Engine Resources
The Mainframe 6000 offers a large amount of real-time
DSP-resources. The flexible DSP distribution structure lets
you run up to 4 Engine presets at the same time using any
available algorithms. How about running your signal from

Dynamics algorithm to a Toolbox-5.1 for e.g format
conversion and total control of levels? Setups like these
are no problem with the System 6000.

algorithms or running at 96kHz, less than 4 Engine
presets can be loaded simultaneously. Required Engine
resources pr. algorithm is listed for each algorithm in the
algorithm-chapter.
Introduction
This section of the manual is a general introduction on
how to operate System 6000 via the TC Icon. The basic
System 6000 consists of a Mainframe with a DSP card and
up to three I/O cards, plus a TC Icon remote with Remote
CPU. Several mainframes as well as several TC Icons can

Assigning Frames to shortcut keys
- un-assign by pressing one of the eight shortcut keys
- select the Frame you wish to assign from the list of
connected units,
- then press the shortcut key you wish to assign to
