If you’re the one installing the DM-3200 into a
facility, you can program a variety of settings and
back up your programs to a Compact Flash card.
Recalling snapshots is done using dedicated buttons
on the front panel, so loading a mixer setting is as
simple as changing channels on a TV remote.
The rear panel of the DM-3200 is well-stocked
with balanced and digital I/O, allowing ample con-
nectivity to crossovers, as well as CD and cassette
recorders such as our popular CC-222 mkII.

dd the optional IF-FW/DM interface card to
Athe DM-3200, and it becomes the ultimate
computer interface and mixing surface for your
workstation software. The IF-FW/DM allows a single
FireWire cable to transmit 32 channels from your
computer to the DM-3200 and another 16 chan-
nels back to the computer for recording. Using this
expansion card, no other interface or hardware is
needed for 48kHz recording to a computer.
The DM-3200 has a fader layer, labeled“Remote,”
that’s dedicated to controlling the mixing facilities
in your DAW software. There are two modes of
control: Mackie Control and Mackie HUI emula-
tion. The DM-3200’s solid transport keys can be
mapped to your software in any fader layer, and
adjustments to your software mixer is a fader
layer away.
The DM-3200 + IF-FW/DM combination gives
you the best of both worlds: computer recording
and DAW control with world-class mixing, auto-
mation and monitoring features.
