5.2 Output (cont.)

this variance is reduced. The QUANTUM clock output is accurate and clean, whether it is mas- ter or slave. See Appendix C for possible clock modes.

SCMS

This turns on/off SCMS copy protection. If you are mastering a mix on which you wish to have copy protection written, turn SCMS “ON”. This copy protection is only available with S/PDIF output. There are three possible settings: no copy, one copy, infinite copies.

5.3 Digital Input Controls

CHANNELS 1 & 2

Controls the digital input level of channels one and two. This feature is designed to be used to even the levels between channels. It can also be used to control the overall level of the digital input.

HIGH PASS

This turns the high pass filter (HPF) On/Off. The high pass filter affects only the digital inputs. Use The HPF to remove any DC offset in the input signal. The QUANTUM’s HPF is set at 1.75 Hz.

Both input levels and the high pass filter are defeated when the clone bypass is activated.

5.4 MIDI CC Map

MIDI

The QUANTUM has been engineered to provide the user with a mind boggling array of MIDI controllable parameters. This means that once you have set up your MIDI device it will control the same parameters in all presets. This allows you to concentrate on the mix.

There are three MIDI CC maps, one for each chain type. Each map assigns the CC for all setups which use that chain type.

LINKED MULTIBAND, LINKED NON-MULTIBAND, DUAL MONO

Selects which map to edit.

MIDI CC

Selects the MIDI Continuous Controller number to be used. Controllers range from 0-127. A MIDI Continuous Controller may be 'Linked' to nearly any available parameter in the QUAN- TUM. Moving the cursor down once allows you to change which parameter is controlled by the chosen CC number. Be careful sailing this MIDI “Sargasso Sea”, there be monsters here! With the amount of CC controllable parameters you will want to assign them to everything. As you scroll through assignable parameters the available dynamic module that each parameter is a part of is listed under the graphic representation of the chain on the lower right hand quadrant. Refer to Appendix E for assignable parameters.
