AWS 924-948 - Solid State Logic

DAW ControlDAW FOCUSIntroductionWhen connected to a Digital Audio Workstation which supports either the HUI or Mackie Control Universal (MCU)protocols, the AWS becomes a powerful digital work surface controller, giving direct access to the most important controlswithin the DAW. The console faders can be used to control the workstation faders and sends, the 24 channel V-pots canbe used to control pans, sends and I/O functions and the Master Control Panel and plug-in controller provide easy accessto a range of other parameters.Provided the Logictivity option has been enabled the AWS can control two DAWs simultaneously from two virtual ‘layers’.For an up to date list of compatible DAW applications please go to the AWS support pages at http://www.solidstatelogic.com- Pro Tools and a number of other DAWs support the HUI protocol.For further information (based on Pro Tools 8) see Pages 4-9 through 4-30.- Many other DAWs, including Logic Audio, Sonar, Nuendo and Digital Performer, support the MCU protocol.For further information, see Page 4-31 onwards.Please refer to the controller documentation that came with your DAWA-FADAA-FADA (Analogue Fader Accesses DAW Automation), is an innovative new way of combining the convenience of DAWautomation with the audio qualities of analogue mixing by using DAW track automation to control the analogue faders. SeePage 4-7 for more details.DAW Controller Features Summary• Direct access to all major DAW mixing, editing and automation parameters• Direct control of plug-in settings• Integral colour TFT display with dedicated control keys• High resolution rotary encoder (V-pot) in every channel provides control of DAW pans, sends and I/O routing• High quality motorised faders to write/replay level moves in your DAW• Simple switching between console layer and DAW control layer• Full remote control implementation• Operation independent of platform or application• DAW control of analogue faders using A-FADAAWS 924-948 Owner’s Manual Page 4-1
