I understand that there is a firewire port for connecting a computer. That is aside of the surface. So, do I still need my desktop with recording drives? Is this correct? I would have liked to record to a surface like this: http://tinyurl.com/nwvw3wy. This one has a 5400rpm 1TB drive. Would that even work? It does not appear to have a firewire port though.
If necessary, I will keep the desktop computer in my rack. It's just a bit*h to lug in and out of the rack to perform mixdown at home. Anybody else have recording questions?

At launch you will only be able to record via FireWire. Future firmware releases will add the ability to record via AVB. Future firmware and hardware releases (expansion cards) will allow for recording via Dante and Thunderbolt.
So you may have to start with your desktop, but eventually you could leave it at home...

What a quick reply. Thanks.
Now, how do the above named interfaces work with this mixer? I am not familiar with these. Are there some resources to learn more about them?

Dale Christenson wroteWhat a quick reply. Thanks. If you are referring to Dante and AVB? Plenty of resources. I would either google both, or if you have a go to pro sound website or something like that, there will probably be information there. Both protocols are ethernet based connections, and allow for full system networked integration, including stage boxes, consoles, monitoring, and speakers. |

not to hijack you post but in a related question on systems integration.... what about having that surface controller running the Smaart software? will it be able to do it? And can/will it be able to run that surface or any other and a PC/MAC for recording and smart etc at the same time...???
what would have been ultimately cool on these RM is to have a hotrod CPU built in and just have to connect a controller and hard drives for recording.

salvadoredelle wrotewhat about having that surface controller running the Smaart software? will it be able to do it? Smaart uses the audio signal, so my initial guess would be no. But I've been wrong before. salvadoredelle wroteAnd can/will it be able to run that surface or any other and a PC/MAC for recording and smart etc at the same time...??? You will be able to run two computers at the same time - one for control and one for recording. That was the scenario that the product manager (Ray) said he uses in his studio at home.

Smaart as we know it will not be on the initial releases of the software but it is currently planned for later implementation.
It has been tested with Smaart 7 from Rational Acoustics and it functions well. Also, since AVB and Dante are merely audio protocols then it should function through them as well. Rational Acoustics has tested Smaart 7 to be able to use Dante and AVB protocol is still pending testing but it should work brilliantly. Hope that answers your questions. |

does any one know the frequency response of the mix outputs on the rm 32 ai
|
|
Can you be a bit more specific Randall? The frequency response will generally be whatever you tailor it to be.

I'm guessing he wants the "20-20kHz response" answer. Not sure what it is, but I'm sure it's close to that. Of course, frequency response changes depending on the impedance is of devices you connect, so those numbers are never really accurate anyway...

That's kind of what I was thinking too but I want to make sure I can get him the definite answer. If there is one.
