USER MANUAL REVISION: MARCH 2020
1.1 The concept behind UNIDEX
The Solidyne UNIDEX mixing consoles were designed
to meet the needs of a wide range of radio stations.
The guiding idea was to reach a compact digital con-
sole, that joint all technologies with a great flexibility
of connection and configuration, including audio over
network (DANTE/AES67). And it must be a “stand-
alone” unit, that is, the control surface and the mix en-
gine should be contained in one framework.
Simple adapters for simple installations
UNIDEX stands for UNIversal Desktop with EXternal
adapters. The UNIDEX inputs allow you to connect
external adapters (UDX) to handle telecommunica-
tions, microphones or USB interfaces among others.
UDX adapters connect directly to the console. No
routers, switches or networks are required. The
UNIDEX inputs handle a data channel that allows
controlling different functions of each adapter from
the console.
Audio over IP for more advanced installations
DANTE connectivity allows to set up studios far from
the console, using an audio network. For this case it
is necessary to set up a dedicated network, and a
DANTE node to input signals to the network (micro-
phones) and download signals (monitoring). You can
also remotely control the far studio using a computer
to access the console's WEB interface. DANTE con-
nectivity is optional. The user can choose not to in-
clude the DANTE module to obtain an additional 16
UNIDEX inputs (8 stereo).
Solidyne UNIDEX UX24 is a standalone unit, contain-
ing a fully digital mix engine. It works at 24 bits @ 48
kHz with DSP processing. Its rear panel presents 4
microphone inputs, 20 stereo inputs and 24 outputs.
The number of inputs is greater when used in mono
for microphones and communications. UX24 has 12
faders, and can manage another 12 “virtual faders”
from a touch screen on board. Everything can also be
managed from an external tablet or computer. As an
option, up to two panels (hardware) of 6 faders can
be added, to obtain a total of 24 real faders.
Its compact design presents all the inputs and
outputs on the rear panel, with RJ45. Solidyne
provides "RJ45 to audio-connector" patch cords
(XLR, TRS, RCA).
The startup is simple. UX24 connects and go on-
air with few previous settings. No advanced
knowledge is required. In general, the operation of
the console does not differ from a conventional
console. Some features, such audio processors,
are operated from the on board touch screen.
There are
3 users profiles that gives access con-
trol. A basic operator can access only the mini-
mum functions; but a senior operator can use ad-
vanced features or have full access to features
and settings.
UX24 brings a great flexibility:
•
Inputs can be assigned to any of the 12
physical faders, or the 12 “virtual” faders.
• It is possible to create scenes with differ-
ent channel settings or different process-
ing settings (i.e. for microphones).
• Remote access using a web interface.
•
Manage up to 2 Studios.
• VST real time effects via USB ASIO and the
external computer.
All features and settings can be accessed from the
touch screen, or via IP with a computer using a WEB
browser.
1.2 Features overview
1.2.1 Channels
• The mix engine UNIDEX UX24 manages 24
channels: 12 channels with 100 mm
faders; and 12 "virtual" channels com-
manded from the surface screen or re-
motely via web interface. The number of
faders can be expanded with 6-channel
UX6 modules, to have frameworks with 18
or 24 hardware channels.
• Each channel can receive audio from any
of the inputs (except from external tuner ).
• The channels can work in 3 modes: MIC;
LINE; TELCO . These modes changes func-
tions and the behavior of the channel and
sets according to the input.
•
Channels can be assigned to 4 stereo mix
buses: PGM, REC, AUX, VBUS .
