You will notice two events. First, the fader cap will stop following the automation data for that channel. Secondly, the fader’s null LEDs will begin blinking at a fast rate. This signifies that fader is now in MBR mode. 3 - 14 Euphonix CS3000/2000 MixView 3.0 Software Supplement...
At this time, the fader’s null LEDs blink rate will revert to a medium rate indicating that the fader is again writing automation data normally. This concludes Exercise 2. Euphonix CS3000/2000 MixView 3.0 Software Supplement 3 - 15...

The operational interface to the Audio Cube is accessed via the DSC screen display and SmartDisplay, allowing the Audio Cube to function seamlessly as an integral part of any Euphonix system. The Cube hardware resides in the machine area with the Audio Tower. Inputs connect to existing channel patchbays and outputs connect to additional Audio Cube patchbays supplied with the system.
This section deals mainly with hardware overview and the Audio Cube pre- configurations and Cube aux sends. The following section explains in detail how Hyper Surround panners are created and used. 4 - 18 Euphonix CS3000/2000 MixView 3.0 Software Supplement...

Every Cube input must receive a post fader feed from the console. The console DIR or “Direct” outputs provide this post fader feed. Each channel has two configurable DIRs. Some Euphonix systems send only the lower faders signal to the Cube. In these systems only DIR 1 is used. Other systems send both the upper and lower fader signals to the Cube.
You can see that this Cube is equipped with 3 QBC cards, each having 32 of the maximum 48 inputs. This makes the Cube system 32 in by 12 out. “EUBUS OK” indicates computer communications are good. Euphonix CS3000/2000 MixView 3.0 Software Supplement 4 - 25...

Section 5: Hyper-Surround Front Focus - Focus control is unique to the Euphonix Hyper-Surround system. It is similar in function to divergence. The major differentiating factors are that the Focus control does not render the L-C-R pan control ineffective, and that it requires three or more buses in order to function.
