2/9/01 xv Introduction
the-shelf computer hardware. The only non-standard component is a proprietary Digital
Signal Processor (DSP) circuit board. The DSP unit handles digital signal processing
functions, leaving the CPU free to run the graphic interface and database operations.
Each DSP circuit board can simultaneously process two signals (one channel of stereo
audio). Multiple DSP boards can be installed in each workstation, providing functions
similar to multiple discrete record/playback machines. No additional rack space is
required, and control is provided through a single interface.
In a multi-user network configuration, individual workstations operate as described above
but the audio for each workstation is no longer stored on an internal hard drive. Instead,
the audio is located in a shared file server, providing each workstation with direct access
to the complete database. No time or disk space is wasted while you create several
copies of the same audio data. Even though all users share the same database, they
operate independently of others in the system. Interconnections are accomplished via a
standard category 5 twisted pair cable (coaxial or fiber optic cable also available).
Additionally, most system functions are controllable via a serial port (or through a
network), making the DAD
PRO
32 ideal for remote control and automation applications.
Operation of the DAD
PRO
32 is straightforward and easy to learn, thanks to its highly
intuitive graphical touchscreen interface. The system provides the user with standard
record and playback functions, using a familiar pushbutton-based control panel. In
addition, the operator has fingertip access to easy-to-use editing, random access
playback buttons, and powerful organizational and library management functions. The
DAD
PRO
32 interface combines uncluttered graphics, intuitive labeling and a variety of
helpful "pop-up" dialogue boxes to allow the operator to learn new features while working
with familiar ones.
DAD
PRO
32 is designed as a direct replacement for existing tape-based record/playback
systems. In most applications, it will use your existing audio and remote control
connections. However, quite a number of interconnection and control options are
available with this unit; we suggest that you review Sections 1 and 10 of this manual for
more information.
