EUCON Hybrid

Get Connected
EUCON Hybrid is included with S5 Fusion and extends the control capabilities of the console beyond the dedicated DSP Cards to the outside world, bringing DAW tracks from multiple workstations onto the console surface for mixing. No other control system or console comes close to the power and total integration of Avid control surfaces with EUCON.

Any DAW running the EUCON Client Application on the network can have its tracks selected for placement and control on the S5 Fusion surface. The position of DAW tracks on the surface is completely flexible. Multiple tracks from separate DAWs may be placed in any order on the surface simultaneously next to Avid DSP channels. These channel Layouts may be saved, making them easy to access and organize - one Layout for DSP channels, one for Pro Tools and one with combinations from multiple DAWs for example.

This greatly extends the capability of any S5 Fusion console and allows operators access to DAW tracks that would otherwise be available only as traditional playback sources. It is now possible to have direct, high-speed access to any of these tracks, their plug-ins and metering

EUCON
The EUCON control protocol makes all this connectivity possible and is transparent to the user. EUCON Hybrid scans the Ethernet network for available workstations. Any PC or Mac application, not just DAWs, can be controlled from the S5 Fusion surface.

The EUCON Client Application is installed on each PC or Mac workstation for basic connectivity. This allows control surface commands, such as fader or knob moves, to be translated into EUCON, HUI or Mackie Control commands for each application. Native EUCON applications that directly support the EUCON protocol, such as Pro Tools 9, Digital Performer, Nuendo, Logic Pro, SONAR, and Pyramix, have an extremely high level of integration with high-resolution, high-speed connectivity to all of the application’s functions. Control is fast and highly responsive. EUCON Hybrid also provides extensive high-speed control of other applications through a combination of HUI and Mackie Control Universal protocols. In addition to fader, pan, aux sends, metering and routing, EUCON Hybrid allows access to the track’s plug-ins from the 8 knobs on the S5 Fusion.
