4Press the DISPLAY ACCESS [SETUP] button repeatedly until the Setup | Time 
Ref page appears.
5Move the cursor to the FRAMES parameter, then select the desired frame 
rate.
The Transition Time transmitted from a video editor is expressed in frames. Match the 
frame rate.
6Press the DISPLAY ACCESS [REMOTE] button repeatedly until the Remote | 
ESAM 1-32 page or ESAM 33-48 page appears.
7Assign Input Channels 1-48 to Machines A-H. (Specify which machine is con-
nected to which channel.)
To add or delete machines to or from Input Channels, move the cursor to a desired machine 
(A-H), then press the channel [SEL] button. You cannot assign a channel to multiple 
machines.
8Move the cursor to the REC column, then press [ENTER] to select one REC 
machine from Machines A-H.
The REC machine selected here will be used to specify a REC machine via the ESAM com-
mand. You cannot specify multiple REC machines.Note:  These settings are effective only when the DM1000 receives Machine commands. If the 
DM1000 receives Source commands that control individual channels, the settings will be 
ignored.

9Move the cursor to the MOTOR button, then press [ENTER] to turn the motor 
faders on or off.
When the MOTOR button is turned off, the motor faders will not move even when the 
DM1000 receives the ESAM commands. (However, the fader levels will change.)
10 Set each channel routing on the Routing page (page 71).
Use BUS 1–8 as sends to the REC machine. The routing settings will differ as follows 
depending on whether you use pre-read (page 263).
-When not using pre-read
On the PLAY machine, turn on channel routing assignments to the BUS 1–8 to which 
you want to send audio signals, and turn off assignments to the stereo bus.
On the REC machine, turn on channel routing assignments to the stereo bus. Turn off 
assignments to BUS 1–8.
-When using pre-read
For the routing settings of the PLAY machine and the REC machine, turn on assign-
ments of the audio signals to the BUS 1–8 to which you want to send audio signals. Turn 
on assignments to the stereo bus if you want to use the stereo bus to monitor the input 
signals from the machine.
11 Press the [AUTO] button to turn on the button indicator so that 
each channel [SEL] button will reflect the corresponding ESAM 
fader on/off status.
12 Press the channel [SEL] buttons to turn on or off the corresponding Input 
Channel ESAM fader.
Repeatedly pressing a [SEL] button toggles the corresponding ESAM fader on and off. 
When an ESAM fader is turned off, the ESAM command for the corresponding channel 
fader level will be ignored.
When an ESAM fader is turned on, the [SEL] button status changes depending on the chan-
nel status, as follows:
•Off.................................. ESAM fader is off.
•Lights up red................ ESAM fader (FROM channel) is on.
•Flashes red.................... ESAM fader (TO channel) is on.
•Lights up green............ ESAM fader (non-FROM/TO channel) is on. Note:  When the MOTOR button is turned off, the physical position of the faders will not cor-
respond to the actual fader levels. In this case, touch a fader or turn the MOTOR button on 
to match the fader position and level.
Note:  If your video editor does not transmit commands for monitoring, you will need to make 
routing settings for the channels being monitored so that the assignment to the stereo bus is 
turned on.

13 Set the pre-crossfade FROM machine level (the fader’s initial value) and the 
post-crossfade TO machine level (the fader’s target value).
Set the stereo fader to 0 dB. If you’re not using pre-read, you’ll need to set the channel fader 
of the REC machine to 0 dB in order to monitor the return from the REC machine.
-Setting the FROM machine level
Use the fader to adjust the level of the FROM machine channel. When a video editor 
transmits the ESAM command, the channel will be set as the FROM machine. At this 
time, the fader level will be used as the initial value of the crossfade. The target value is 
fixed at –∞.
-Setting the TO machine level
Use the fader to adjust the level of the TO machine channel. When a video editor trans-
mits the ESAM command, the channel will be set as the TO machine. At this time, the 
fader level will be used as the target value of the crossfade. The initial value is fixed at –∞.
14 Set the delay for each Input Channel, if necessary.
For more information, see page 63.
15 Send the ESAM command from the video editor to execute the crossfade 
(transition).
If you touch a fader during the crossfade operation, the corresponding channel will stop the 
crossfade operation and you will be able to control the fader manually.
Pre-read Operation
Pre-read is an editing operation performed on a single device that is used as a PLAY and 
REC machine. It requires a special VTR that supports the pre-read operations.
To perform the pre-read operation, you must send playback signals from the REC machine 
to Bus 1-8. Do not send the playback signal to Bus 1-8 unless you perform the pre-read 
operation. Otherwise, the signal will loop.
If you plan to occasionally perform the pre-read operation, store two different routing set-
tings in scene memories so that you can recall either scene anytime.Tip:  If you save the DM1000 setup settings in a scene memory, you can quickly restore the 
setting later. For more information on scene memories, refer to chapter 14 “Scene Memories” 
on page 163.

level. If this check box is not checked, these signals will be boosted by 3 dB. (When the sig-
nals are panned to center, they will be at the nominal level.) In Surround mode, the same 
thing applies when any Surroound pan channel is panned hard left or right.
•Fast Meter Fall Time
If this check box is on, the level meters fall more quickly.

DM1000s (See page 282 for more information on cascade connection). When the check 
box is off, only the Solo function is linked.
•Auto Direct Out On
If this check box is on and you change the channel Direct Out destination from “–” to any 
other output, the channel Direct Out is automatically enabled. If you change the channel 
Direct Out destination from an output to “–,” the channel Direct Out is automatically dis-
abled.

Prefer3 page
This page enables you to set various Automix preferences.
This page contains the following parameters. (These parameters are explained in the order 
from the top of the left column to the bottom of the right column).
•Mix Update Confirmation
If this check box is on, when Automix recording stops, a confirmation message appears  ask-
ing if you want to update the current Automix with the latest edits.
•Auto EQ Edit in
If this check box is on, EQ settings are automatically punched into the Automix recording 
when you adjust an EQ control in the SELECTED CHANNEL section.
•Copy Initial Fader
If this check box is on, the fader value recorded immediately before the specified IN point 
is copied to the specified TO point when you copy or move the Fader events. This eliminates 
fader position matching problems when no fader event exists at the specified TO point.
•Auto Inc TC Capture
If this check box is on, the Timecode Capture memory is incremented automatically each 
time a timecode address is captured on the Automix | Event Edit page (see page 211).
•Link Capture & Locate Memory
If this check box is on, the Capture memories on the Automix | Event Edit page are linked 
to the Locate memories.
•Clear Edit Channel after REC
If this check box is on, the previously-recorded channel events are automatically cleared 
when Automix recording (with Auto Rec on) stops.
•Timecode Display Relative
If this check box is on, the indicated timecode is offset based on the OFFSET parameter on 
the Main page.
•Receive Full Frame Message
If this check box is on, MTC full-frame messages, in addition to the usual quarter-frame 
messages, are recognized and Automix follows them. If this check box is off, only the usual 
quarter-frame messages are recognized.
•Show Compact Size
Automix data is compressed while recording. If this check box is on, the DM1000 displays 
the compressed size of the Automix.
