FIG. 5. Digital storing media for instruments.
The guitar signal will be converted for storing on your DAT. At the same time the M5000 can
process and convert the tracks selected from your DAT from digital to analog. (You have to
connect the digital out from your DAT to the digital in on your M5000).
FIG. 6 D/D: Digital input and digital output.
In this mode the M5000 works locally on the DSP-1 card and therefor does not use the bus,
which means that you can use a different clock than the one the bus is using.
INSERT
In the TOOLBOX

algorithm you have the opportunity to insert a second DSP engine
internally in the M5000 frame in order to have 2 DSP engines connected into one system (see
TOOLBOX

algorithm description in the BASIC ALGORITHM section). When you are
running the TOOLBOX

on one DSP you can for example run the DYNAMIC1 algorithm
on a second DSP engine. The I/O mode on the DSP engine that runs the TOOLBOX

can be
set as normal (see the above options). The second DSP must be set to INSERT in order for
the DSP to know where to get its signal.
