Chapter 1: Introduction to the DF70

The DF70 is a high-capacity audio DSP core for the System 5 and MaxAir console families. The DF70 fulfills a similar function as the DF66, but allows larger path counts on the

System 5 mixing console.

Features of the DF70 include:

• 5U chassis, including Digital Pilot

• Available only with eight 120MHz DSP cards

• Up to 454 channels at 48 KHz

• Up to 222 channels at 96 KHz

• Up to 96 mix busses

• 32 fully routable MADI ins and outs

• Redundant power supplies

• Models with bus processing available, including limiter capability (results in lower channel counts)

• Can be used in a full hardware redundancy system

System Requirements and

Compatibility

Avid can only assure compatibility and provide support for hardware and software it has tested and approved.

The following are required to use the DF70:

• Control modules must have latest Advantech SBC's with

1GB RAM minimum

• Studio Computer must be an SC264 with 2GB RAM (the

SC263 will work with smaller automation files)
