Audio Production System with Optional Networking
TERMINOLOGY
Preset
A preset is a complete copy of a path from which you can choose elements to load onto another path. Using presets can
speed up work-flow when several paths with similar settings are required.
PSU Module
PSU module is a term used to describe a Power Supply unit which is built in to the Brio 36 in order to provide power
inlets.
R
Redundancy
All main components of the system are redundant, meaning that there is always a secondary hot spare ready to step in and
take over control if the primary component fails.
Rotary Controller
A knob which can be rotated, allowing variable control of a parameter. In some cases it can be pressed giving it extra
functionality. Each control cell contains a rotary controller.
Route
A route is a connection made from one path to another within the system. For example a Group may be routed to a Main,
or a Channel may be routed to an Aux via an Aux send.
Router Core
External Processing rack without a DSP mix engine, and therefore no control surface connected. Used to expand network
capacity when Brio 36 is connected to a Hydra 2 network..
S
SDI (Serial Digital Interface)
Although SDI is primarily a means for encoding and transporting video signals, audio signals can also be encoded and
sent through in the ancillary data space. Certain Calrec SDI de-embedders can decode all groups and Dolby E encoded
audio for a maximum of 128 mono signals per SDI stream.
SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable)
SFP sockets accept a range of adaptors which provide different interface connections for copper or fibre connectivity.
This allows units fitted with SFP sockets to be customised to meet a range of requirements. All main network connections
in a Brio 36 system make use of SFP sockets.
