TEKTON 32’S MIX ENGINE

The TVe Mix Engine Blade for Arcus, Strata and Tekton 32 console surfaces and virtual interfaces houses all the mixing functions and provides essential distribution of the signals to the WheatNet IP audio network. Once on the network, bus signals are available as sources and destinations anywhere. This creates an extremely flexible system in which program outputs from one surface can be sources on any other surface; for example, a news mixer’s program bus can be brought up as a source on the air studio surface. The TVe mix engine includes 12 universal logic (GPIO) ports for interfacing various external switches, indicators and devices for control purposes and is AES67 compliant for full interoperability with other AES67-compatible devices and systems.

PLENTY OF I/O AVAILABLE WHEREVER YOU NEED IT

The optional 4RU StageBox One is for extending console I/O, providing 32 mic/line inputs, 16 analog line outputs, and 8 AES3 inputs and 8 AES3 outputs as well as 12 logic ports and dual Ethernet ports. StageBox One works with all WheatNet-IP audio networked consoles.

SUPPORT AND DIRECT INTERFACE TO TOUCHSCREEN MONITORS

Tekton 32 provides a graphical user interface controlled via a user-supplied touchscreen that interfaces directly to the rear of the console, allowing you dynamic, interactive access to any and all functions. It reflects whatever actions you are applying to the console and updates, in real time, with a lightning fast refresh rate. This allows you to use standard pinch and zoom gestures you are familiar with.
