2) Digital mixer function
Here, the 01X functions simultaneously as a front-end/
audio interface for a computer system as well as a fully
digital mixer for your sequencer audio tracks.
With the mLAN connection, this system allows you to
route up to sixteen independent audio channels (plus the
two-channel stereo master) from the computer to the input
channels of the 01X, and have the eight rear-panel inputs
available for your vocals and other instruments. Naturally,
all Dynamics, EQ and effect processing are available for
this 24-channel setup. Finally, you can also use this same
configuration for mixdown—returning the entire sound
with processing to the computer for mastering.
3) Recording mixer, monitor mixer —
with use of 01X Channel Module
software and Studio Manager
This advanced hardware/software hybrid system combines
the conveniences of computer-based mixing/processing
with the intuitive control surface and digital processing of
the 01X.
In this application, the 01X Channel Module plug-in and
the Studio Manager software (both included with the 01X)
are used to link mixing and processing operations between
the 01X and your computer. The result is a transparent,
exceptionally easy-to-use hardware/software combination.
The panel controls on the 01X and the controls of Studio
Manager on the computer are linked directly—adjusting a
parameter on one changes that of the other. The Studio
Manager has conventional channel strips that you can con-
trol from the 01X. It also has special windows for the
Dynamics processing, EQ, and effects. The EQ window,
for example, features a frequency response graph that
changes as you make the settings—very intuitive and very
easy.
With this configuration, you can use the channel process-
ing on the 01X to hear the intended final sound, but record
dry to computer.
The 01X Channel Module plug-in can be used afterwards
to actually process the recorded sound as you wish. More-
over, you can copy settings from Studio Manager to the
01X Channel Module and adjust/tweak the mix using the
Channel Module plug-in. Settings you’ve made or
changed in the Channel Module can also be transferred
back to Studio Manager.
