MSD Software Manual 5 PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 5 The Compact Audio Matrix. The Compact Audio Matrix. The OS has been built around an audio matrix. This means that any of the 32 input channels or 16 output channels are not hard wired to any specific function in the MSD. This means that even left and right channels in an AES-3 signal can be routed separately; they can even be converted to an analogue signal if the MSD is fitted with output modules.
PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 5 The Compact Audio Matrix. 5.1 MSD Software Manual. Audio Matrix Destination List. The following is a list of destinations in the matrix: Destination Number 1..32 Destination Name DM 1 .. DM31 33..48 Description. Reserved for future use. Physical outputs from the MSD.

Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. 7 PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. The Main Metering Functions. The Main Metering Functions consists of three different metering devices: The Phase Correlation Meter, The Audio Vector Scope / Jelly-Fish™ and the Peak Programme Meter (PPM). 7.1 The Phase Correlation Meter. The ‘Phase Correlation Meter’ is of the so-called ‘Center-Zero’ type, and displays the phase relationship between two input signals.
MSD Software Manual PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. PPM-Bargraph then the input to the ‘Audio Vector Oscilloscope’ / ‘Jelly-Fish’ will change accordingly. Please see section B.1 'Factory Presets' for examples on how to configure the matrix. The ‘Audio Vector Oscilloscope’ is using dynamic auto adjustment (scaling) on the horizontal and vertical scales.
Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. 7.2.1 PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. The Audio Vector Oscilloscope The ‘Audio Vector Oscilloscope’ is also known under the names ‘Stereo Image Monitor’ or ‘Goniometer’. It is based on continuous graphic illustration of a stereo signal in the Lissajous-format. If phase and amplitude is randomly distributed, the signal is an ideal stereo signal. Normally this will only happen with a live recorded signal.
MSD Software Manual 7.2.3 PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. The Jelly-Fish Surround Sound Monitor. The MSD600M has a full Surround Sound monitoring function using the unique Jelly-Fish image. The Jelly-Fish™ in Pro-Logic 5.1 surround mode, indicating some phase errors. The Jelly-Fish figure represents the surround channels in a vector format. The Jelly-Fish can be used to monitor all standard surround sound formats up to 7.1. Including Pro-Logic, 5.1, 6.0, 7.1.
Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. The following illustrations shows how the Physical Audio Inputs relates to assigned PPM-bargraphs and the Jelly-Fish. The demonstrated format is taken from factory preset 6 ‘LRCLsRs’ which is designed for monitoring a 5.1 surround sound setup. The Jelly-Fish. Each of the 5 areas illustrate a physical input source, labelled as the corresponding PPM Bargraph. The Peak Program Meter.
MSD Software Manual PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. When routing audio from the physical inputs to the Jelly-Fish it is necessary to route the audio through the PPM-Bargraphs. This means that in the above example the physical audio input #37 is routed to PPM-bargraph #3 which is destination #67. Since the PPM-bargraphs is routed back into the ‘Audio Matrix’ they can be used as sources for the Jelly-Fish. In this case the PPMbargraph #3 has the source #59.
Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. To monitor the exact phase relation between any two signals in the Jelly-Fish™ these signals can be routed to the separate ‘Phase Correlation Meter’ which is destination #53 and #54. When using a factory preset on a surround sound format using a separate Low Frequency Energy "LFE" channel (format 5.1 and 7.
PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual 7.3.1 Scale selection. Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. The MSD has 7 different PPM scales installed and they are available from the submenu [Scale]. All scales can be changed using the Windows programme DK-Scale. Please refer to the DK-Scale documentation for information on how to do this. The installed scale package differs from region to region e.g. United States, Germany or International for the rest of the world.
Chapter 6 The Extended Audio Matrix. 7.3.4 PRELIMINARY Release PPM Peak and Hold. MSD Software Manual. Using the [Hold] function it is possible to check the maximum signal level during, or especially after, a recording session. Thus you can secure that the levels does not exceed any pre-determined limits. If [PEAK] or [DUAL] is enabled and [HOLD] is active then the peak and dual segments will remain at the highest reading until the [CLEAR] key is pressed. 7.3.
MSD Software Manual 8 PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 8 The Signal Generator. The Signal Generator. The Tone Generator menu controls all signal generator functions.

Chapter 8 The Signal Generator. 8.3 PRELIMINARY Release EBU Test Signal. MSD Software Manual. For radio, TV and video production the EBU test signal identifies the right channel of a stereo signal by switching the right signal off for 3 seconds, then on for 1 second. To enable this function in the MSD press the [EBU] key. Please note that the source signals must be selected in the proper LEFT/RIGHT order in the Audio Matrix. Source #53 is the left channel and Source #54 is the right channel.
MSD Software Manual 9 PRELIMINARY Release Chapter 9 Utility Functions. Utility Functions. From the [UTILITY] menu four special functions are available. DMU-1630 Digital Audio Peak Meter, The Graphic LEQM, The session Log and a DCF-77 Radio Controlled Clock. Please note that the utility functions only support up to 8 input channels. 9.1.1 DMU-1630 Digital Audio Peak Meter. The MSD has included the DMU-1630 scale. The DMU-30 scale is a Digital True-Peak scale with a range of -60dB to 0dB.
Chapter 9 Utility Functions. PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. To set the DMU-1630 Reference level, indicated by a yellow line in the DMU1630 PPM window, use the arrow [] / [] keys. The Reference level can be set in 1dB intervals in the range from –20dB to 0dB full scale. The original DMU-30 was limited to –20dB to –10dB in 2dB steps. This Reference level is used to decide the top (full-scale) level in the [FINE] mode. In this way the [FINE] key is used to zoom a selected area of the PPM window.
MSD Software Manual 9.2 PRELIMINARY Release Loudness measuring. Leq(m). Chapter 9 Utility Functions. Unlike the normal PPM-bargraphs the loudness meter measures the audio level over time for the length of an audio clip or entire feature. It mimics the varying sensitivity of the human ear at different frequencies. The displayed measurement are readout in dB and this number could be interpreted as an ‘annoyance factor’.
Chapter 9 Utility Functions. 9.2.1 PRELIMINARY Release Calibrating the Leq(m). MSD Software Manual. Since Leq(m) is an acoustically measured level (using a microphone at the optimal listening position in a cinema) and the MSD measures the Leq(m) level electrically, the 'Graphic Loudness Meter' in the MSD has to be calibrated to the output level from the mixing console.
PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual Chapter 9 Utility Functions. When a loudness session is stopped the graph will be stretched to fill the remaining part of the window. If the loudness value is above the predefined 'trip' level the counter and Leq(m) value will start blinking red. If a loudness session is restarted it will automatically stop at the same time as when the [STOP] key was pressed during the first session. To avoid this press the [RESET] key before restarting the loudness session. 9.2.
Chapter 9 Utility Functions. 9.3 PRELIMINARY Release Session LOG. MSD Software Manual. The Session Log is capable of logging information about an audio signal. The sessionlog will at a predefined interval log the levels of up to 8 channels. These log entries will be timestamped either by an internal time code or by an external SMPTE time code signal applied to an audio input.
MSD Software Manual 9.3.2 PRELIMINARY Release Logging Interval. Chapter 9 Utility Functions. The Logging Interval can be set in the range of 1 second to 240 seconds (4 minutes). To set the ‘Logging Interval’ enter the setup menu by pressing the [SETUP] key. In the setup menu use the arrow [] / [] keys to move the green selection bar to the field called ‘Logging Interval (sec)’ and press the [SELECT] key. The ‘SECONDS’ menu will now appear.
Chapter 9 Utility Functions. PRELIMINARY Release MSD Software Manual. In the inspect mode it is possible to press the [PRINT] key. When this key is pressed the session log is transmitted on the RS232 port on the MSD. It is possible to connect a serial printer directly to this port.
