•Automix Store Undo
If this check box is on, you can undo the Automix Store & Clear functions.
•Touch Sence Edit In ALL
If this check box is on, all parameters that are turned on in the OVERWRITE section on the 
Automix | Main page will be punched in and out via the faders’ Touch Sense function. If this 
check box is off, only the faders selected in Fader mode will be punched in and out.
•Drop Out Time
This parameter sets an interval (in frames) between the interruption of incoming timecode 
and the stoppage of Automix recording or playback.
•Lock Time
This parameter sets the interval (in frames) allowed until the Automix locks to incoming 
timecode messages. If the sync operation is unstable, set this value higher.
•Frame Jump Error
This parameter sets the time interval (in frames) required by the DM1000 to recognize an 
error after incoming timecode messages jump. If the actual interval is shorter than the value 
specified by this parameter, the DM1000 continues the sync operation. If the frame jump 
causes the recording or playback to stop during the MTC sync operation, set the parameter 
value higher than the number of frames indicated in the error message.
If you set the parameter to a higher value, adjust the Drop Out Time parameter value, if nec-
essary.
•Fader REC Accuracy
This parameter sets the accuracy of recording faders over time to “Little,” “Some,” “More,” 
or “Most.” If you set the parameter to lower values, you will save Automix memory space.
•Insert Time Link to Locate Memory
This parameter selects Locate memories that are applied to the Insert IN/OUT parameters.

Creating a Custom Layer by Combining Channels (User 
Assignable Layer)
If you set the Remote Layer target to “USER ASSIGNABLE,” you can create a custom layer 
by combining any DM1000 channels (excluding the Stereo Out). This custom layer is called 
“User Assignable layer.” You can use either Remote 1 or Remote 2 for a User Assignable layer.
1Press the DISPLAY ACCESS [REMOTE] button, then press the [F1] or [F2] but-
ton.
The Remote | Remote1 or Remote2 page appears.
2Set the TARGET parameter to USER ASSIGNABLE, then press [ENTER].
A confirmation window appears.
3Move the cursor to the YES button, then press [ENTER].
The DM1000 displays the page shown below.
4Select the channels you wish to assign to the User Assignable layer using the 
1–16 parameter boxes (
1).
You can store up to four 16-channel setups in four banks by switching Banks 1–4 via the 
BANK 1–4 buttons. If you press[ENTER] before selecting the channels to assign, you will 
still be able to select the channels you wish to assign in the User CH Select window.
5Use the LAYER [REMOTE 1] or [REMOTE 2] button to assign or recall the User 
Assignable layer.
You can use the faders, Encoders, and [ON] buttons to control the assigned channels. Tip:  You can reset the assignment to default by moving the cursor to the CLEAR button and 
pressing [ENTER].
Tip:  If you connected an optional MB1000 Meter Bridge, its meters indicate the level of the 
channels currently-assigned to layer channels 1–16.

Using the User Defined Keys
You can assign any of more than 200 functions to the USER DEFINED KEYS [1]–[12].
If you assign to one of the buttons (or “keys”) a function that is usually executed on the dis-
play pages, you can use the assigned button as a shortcut.
The Function to User Defined Keys assignments are stored in banks. (See page  295 for more 
information on the initial bank settings.) The DM1000 provides eight banks (Banks A–H). 
Switching banks enables you to change the assignment quickly.
Follow the steps below to assign functions to the USER DEFINED KEYS.

Using GPI (General Purpose Interface)
The DM1000’s CONTROL port  provides a GPI (General Purpose Interface) for controlling 
external equipment. You can configure the GPI so that it will output 8-channel trigger sig-
nals when you operate the faders or USER DEFINED KEYS, or so that it will receive 4-chan-
nel trigger signals to control the DM1000 parameters.
You can assign functions to these trigger signals. In this way, for example, you can control a 
“RECORDING” warning light outside a studio from the DM1000, or you can control the 
DM1000’s Talkback function or Dimmer function using an outside switch.
1Press the DISPLAY ACCESS [SETUP] button repeatedly until the Setup | GPI 
page appears.
AINPUT section
This section enables you to select functions that will be controlled via trigger signals 1–4 
input at the CONTROL port. Assignable functions are listed in the area below this sec-
tion.
BOUTPUT section
This section enables you to select the sources that will output trigger signals 1–8. Select-
able sources are listed in the area below this section.
