Introducing AudioCore Version 8.40

AudioCore Version 8.40

This version of AudioCore is a major advance on the last major release of the software, version 6.00. Many new features

have been added, and it is the purpose of this document to introduce them and explain their use as clearly and simply as

possible.

Please note the following points when using this software:

• Support for the DP100, DP200 and DP202 has been removed. The last version that offered full support of all

units (excluding the 4 Series) is version 6.00 – this is still available on the website at www.xta.co.uk

• The minimum screen resolution required is now 1024 x 768. The software will still run at lower resolutions but,

due to the increased amount of information shown in this version, not everything will fit on screen at once and

scrolling will be required.

• The 4 Series units will run at a baud rate of 115200, but the DP226, DP224 and DP6i will NOT. If you are

running a mixed system (4 Series and older units), remember that the fastest available baud rate will have to be

38400.

• Make sure that all connected units have the latest firmware – check our website at www.xta.co.uk

for the latest

version numbers. Failure to update your units may result in erratic operation and possible loss of control.

What’s new in this version?

• Inclusion of the new 4 Series audio management systems, and reintroduction of Array Control.

• Improved graphics, including larger screens, easier control and advanced curve drawing.

• Phase plots now available, along with shadow EQ curve displays.

• Cross-unit copy and pasting – copy EQ and settings to other channels on the system, or to complete units.

• Individual memory control on a unit-by-unit basis and snapshot memory control for complete system scene store

and recall.

…of the units, not the engineer.

Limitations apply across different types of units.
