Digital radio consoles AXUM
Product Description
The AXUM VERSION 3.0 is a modular completely preprogrammed platform that can grow with you and your organization any time, any moment.
I/O cards can be shared between systems and a Broadcast station that has decided to use the AXUM as their main and support mixers can be sure to have invested in a future proof product. The AXUM can be used for small local 4 fader desktop use as well as large scale (128 faders max) production work and every configuration in between.
Imagine a console where you can decide yourself what a switch/encoder or fader will do for you. Not possible?
With the AXUM this is possible and... you can do that yourself by selecting a function out of hundreds of functions simply selectable from a database in your AXUM browser.
Two control surfaces (with their own CRM sections) in different studios sharing the same I/O rack is also no problem for the AXUM platform.

the modules
4-fader module
The AXUM is completely modular and allows selection out of various control surfaces.
You can choose out of 4 motor fader Drop Through sections, CRM section and Control Module for play-out systems.
Any Control surface switch can do anything you want it to do, but… to not confuse you we have programmed a factory default assignment that represents the working procedures of the average Radio Studio to start with as a template.
CRM module
control module
The switches on the channel-strip are software assignable to a function.
For instance the ‘ON’ Switch can be above or below the fader.
Switches have long life dual color LED’s. So every active function is clearly shown.
The basic desktop frames are built to use as a drop through frame in a furniture surface.
There are 4 fader sections and a CRM section as well as an optional Control Section for Play-out software.
All control surfaces have the option for a redundant Power Supply.
An ETX control unit is a necessity to communicate with the above sections over LAN.
The Control module is a free programmable bank of switches to load all sorts of commands into for our AIRCAST play-out software.
A very convenient way of quickly drop jingles into your show.
I/O-cards
With the D&R AXUM’s modular concept, our MambaNet™ protocol controls the primary portion of the I/O rack. Each I/O card is shared in the network and can be controlled from the network.
The I/O cards together with the rack will behave as a large Matrix in the network. Every inserted DSP card gives you 32 stereo channels with full control over the EQ and dynamics of the audio, a maximum of 4 DSP cards is accepted.
- The huge amount of in- and outputs per card could not be
designed with a dedicated (jack/Cinch/XLR) connector in the
space available on the front of the card.
