Chapter 2: HD96-24 Overview
Introducing the HD96-24 Digital Mixing System.
For decades Midas has been a driving force in the world of pro audio. Building
on the incredible success of the XL8 and PRO Series with their exemplary audio
performance and road-proven rugged and reliable construction, the Midas PRO
Series became the gold standard in concert touring and installed live sound.
Oering the same outstanding sample-synchronised and phase-coherent audio
performance, interpolated control functions and intuitive navigation, the PRO2,
PRO3, PRO6, PRO9 and later PRO-X Live Audio Systems have become one of the
industry’s main choices for live sound mixing.
Now the HD96-24 pushes the boundaries further yet again with a 21" touchscreen
for hands on instant access to all controls. Parameter adjustment becomes
fast and easy with gesture touch interaction using the precise and accurate
multi-touch display which allows up to 10 simultaneous touches. Featuring 144
Simultaneous exi inputs and 123 (96 x Flexi Aux + 24 x Matrix + 3 Output busses
= 123) time-aligned, phase-coherent busses with no stealing of resources in
channel or bus counts. True and consistent 96 kHz sampling frequency and 64 bit
oating point processing provide exemplary quality audio processing, and the
oversampled and interpolated digital signal processing algorithms, combined
with the fully interpolated and touch sensitive user controls, result in the smooth
continuous response and immediacy of working on an analogue console.
The HD96-24 features the rugged and road-proven Klark Teknik HyperMAC (HMAC)
and SuperMAC (AES50-compliant) networking technologies with their ultra-low
and deterministic latencies and robust error correction. Its powerful audio
networking oers up to up to 624 inputs and 654 outputs at the 96kHz sample
frequency depending on conguration.

Network
The network of the HD96-24 utilises the physical connectivity of Ethernet
(EtherCon® connectors and Cat 5e/copper cable) but replaces its data protocol
with AES50 protocol (implemented as SuperMac) and the HyperMac high capacity
system, which are more suited to high quality, low latency audio distribution. The
use of the AES standard allows straightforward interfacing with any third-party
hardware that also utilises this connection.
AES50 connections carry digital audio and control data bi-directionally down a
single cable. Cat 5e cable is used for the ‘local’ connections and the dual digital
‘snake’ (equivalent to a 384-channel analogue multi-core, 192 channels per snake
connection) between console and I/O. The combination of audio, control, clock and
third-party Ethernet data in a single network means that the hardware interfaces
on a single RJ45 connection.
All system connections can be duplicated for full dual redundancy.
mCloud Network
The Midas mCloud network is a brand-new concept in le and system
management. The HD96-24 has built in Wi-Fi capabilities which allow the
surface to share its information over a Wi-Fi connection and any other network
connections to the mCloud. Be reassured the connection is completely safe and
great lengths have been taken to keep information secure.
The mCloud can be used to store your show les, preset les and all other types of
data from the console. If you leave your USB stick with your vital settings at home,
you can directly log into your mCloud account and load your show le straight to
the HD96-24 without breaking a sweat.
New system updates can be downloaded directly to the surface ready for you to
update when you’re ready. A list of all previous software versions will be stored on
the HD96-24 for peace of mind.
It also allows audio rental companies to keep a track of registrations, software
versions, warranties and diagnostic logs. All the admin for running a busy hire
company in one place.
Each user of the HD96-24 will be prompted to set up a user prole which also in
turn congures your mCloud account. Visit cloud.midasconsoles.com to set up and
use your account.
HD96-24 software
The operating system of the HD96-24 is Linux, which is an open-source, stable,
proven operating system (OS). Linux is used in many mission-critical applications
worldwide and has allowed Midas’ software engineers to write a ground-up
system that contains no ‘hidden’ or unused code. This has resulted in an ecient,
compact application, which is quick in operation, quick booting and comparatively
easy to debug.
Graphic User Interface (GUI)
The HD96-24 has a 21” touch screen that provides a quick and intuitive workow.
Modern touch gestures such as pinch and smooth touch screen faders have been
included to speed up work ow and let you concentrate on the mix. Not only does
the GUI reect what is happening on the control surface, but it also provides extra
functionality via a top and side bar menu. These menus provide access to all the
pages that you will require to set up, congure, manage and operate the entire
control surface.
Gone are the days of only one touch on a screen at a time. Use both hands to
manipulate up to 10 faders at a time if you so wish.
Pinch gesture showing EQ width adjustment.
Independent widget style areas are extensively used to display various dierent
types of information at once, all fully customisable to suit your workow.
System card expansion
The HD96-24 has 2 x CM-1 slots built in for further audio expansion. Adding up to
an additional 128 channels of I/O greatly increases networked capabilities. Virtual
sound checks and recording have never been easier to set-up and achieve with
exible options. Being able to support new and emerging protocols via its two
industry-standard expansion slots gives the HD96-24 a greatly extended shelf life.
The 24 VCA (Variable Control Association) and 24 POP (POPulation) groups,
combined with the advanced touch screen navigation system, 28 faders,
assignable controls and innovative shortcut area allow simultaneous display and
control of all the critical information required to craft an unprecedented
mix experience.
Applications
The HD96-24 is the go-to high-end Midas Digital Console System, akin to the
‘industry standard’ Heritage 3000 and XL4. Although the HD96-24 is designed for
the traditional touring live sound environment, it is also ideal for theatre, house of
worship installations and broadcast. So, being a truly multi-functional console in
the Midas tradition, the HD96-24 is suitable for many applications, such as:
Live sound touring FOH or MON duties.
Live sound theatre FOH or MON duties.
Live sound house of worship FOH or MON duties.
System busses
The HD96-24 has comprehensive system busses to suit demanding applications,
compromising of:
1. 2 stereo solo busses, routable from all locations and allowing for
dual operator.
2. 3 master busses (1 Stereo 1 mono), routable from the mic/line inputs
(up to 144), and 96 aux busses.
3. 24 matrix busses, routable from the mic/line inputs (up to 144),
96 aux busses and three stereo busses.
4. 96 aux busses (either standard or exi-aux, routable from the
mic/line inputs (up to 144) or exi aux bus to aux bus for group or
stem style processing.
All of the bus routings provide simultaneous and time aligned mixing of all the
sources, which will be switchable for minimum latency requirements.
For monitor mixing, the master, matrix and aux busses can all be routed directly
from the input channels, with independent level controls providing up to 123
monitor mix busses. Flexi-Aux busses allow group mixing of channels to be sent to
Auxes, Matrices or the Masters, for example, mix and process all your drums via a
Flexi-Aux then send to an IEM Aux.
For traditional FOH sub group mixing, any (or all) of the aux busses can change to
operate post-channel fader and pan (that is, aux gain xed at unity).
Mix matrix
Fundamentally, the mix matrix denes the capability of the HD96-24. Probably
the best way to imagine the mix matrix is to think of an analogue console layout,
where inputs run vertically, and busses run horizontally. A mix matrix is usually
dened as the number of busses and the quantity of simultaneously-mixable
inputs there are per bus. The following diagrams illustrate the capability within
the HD96-24 system.
HD96-24 Overview
16 H D 9 6 -2 4 - CC-T P Quick Start Guide 17
Saving a show versus storing a scene
It is important to understand the dierences between saving a show and storing
a scene. Storing a scene saves the current settings of the system to the show le.
Scene data is never updated unless you manually store a scene. The show le
remains unsaved in RAM. Although the state of the control surface is copied every
ve seconds, it is not stored in a scene. Instead, it is placed in the NVRAM (non-
volatile random-access memory) of the control surface’s memory, which is a type
of RAM that doesn’t lose its data when the power goes o. If the control surface
loses power accidentally, these settings are loaded so that audio parameters are
identical, thus avoiding audio level jumps.
Saving a show copies the show le onto the internal solid-state disk of the control
surface. This provides you with a ‘permanent’ copy, provided you shut down the
system properly as detailed in the following section. You also have the option of
saving your show to your Midas mCloud account. This gives extra security to your
work and allows your show le to be restored to a console even if you have lost
your USB stick.
Shutting down the control centre properly
When switching o the control surface, we recommend that you use the
shutdown option in the GUI menu.
Hold Shutdown for a short time while the line traces around the outside of the
button. The surface will then start the shutdown routine, the screen will go blank,
the Midas logo will briey be displayed, then the screen will go blank for a second
time indicating the shutdown procedure has nished. Only once the system
has been shutdown correctly is it safe to turn o the power switch. By using
shutdown, the cached copy of the show data, which is maintained by the system,
is automatically stored. Shutdown then uses the current show le, NVRAM data
and cache les to restore the control surface to exactly the same state as at power
down; even to the point of loading the unsaved show and placing you at the
correct scene, with non-stored scene data at the control surface.
If you don’t use the Shutdown option the audio parameters are still restored,
but the show and show status (saved/unsaved) cannot be restored automatically.
You must manually reload the show, and any unsaved changes will be lost.
The Midas mCloud system
mCloud handles all show le storage at its basic level. Imagine leaving your USB
stick at home but not worrying as once you sign into your mCloud account on the
surface you can see all your shows in one convenient place.
Below is a status list to show how your les are synced or not.
Status if connected to the mCloud:
• Synced All versions of this show have been pushed to the mCloud;
any newer mCloud versions have been synced to the console.
• Pending One or more newer versions have been created on the
console and will be synced shortly.
• Syncing Edits are being pushed to and/or pulled from the mCloud.
• Conicted Edits have been made on both console and cloud:
awaiting user to select the correct current version.
• Error The sync service encountered a problem trying to sync this
resource (e.g. due to an issue communication with the mCloud).
“Connected to mCloud” means the console can reach the mCloud server, the
current user is mCloud-enabled and a valid password has been entered (or a valid
token saved from a previous session).
Status if oine:
• Synced Latest version of shows on the console have been synced to
the mCloud. Newer mCloud versions will be unknown.
• Pending One or more newer versions have been created on the
console and will be scheduled for sync next time the console
is connected.
• Syncing n/a
• Conicted n/a
• Error n/a
HD96-24 Basic Operation
Chapter 3: Before You Start
Principles of operation
Control surface operation is based on the concept of colours and groups rather
than ‘layering’ or ‘paging’, which is the case with most digital consoles on the
market today. With so many channels available it is far easier to remember them
by their user-congured individual/group colour and name rather than their
channel number. Tags can also be used to group channels together in order to
speed up certain functions, for example, changing the colour of all the
drum channels.
The control surface is populated with instantly recognisable controls that are
logically distributed in major sections, so that all the controls you need to access
most of the time are always on the control surface, while the remainder are only
one action away. You can display all I/O meters, both on the control surface and
the GUI via the Console View workow, to give instant monitoring and
metering feedback.
Operating modes
You can change certain aspects of the control centre operation by assigning
dierent tasks to certain areas of the control surface.
Hints and tips
Checking the Console View screen frequently is a good idea. This provides at a
glance an overview of the control surface’s input/output status.
The Manchino (Multi Edit) page is a great place to set various inputs or outputs
to user dened levels or settings e.g. for setting all faders to 0dB, setting all
contributions into a particular aux to be Pre-fade, or routing a large number of
paths to the Stereo bus. Details of how it works can be found in full HD96-24
manual.
User Journey
When the HD96-24 is switched on for the rst time you will be presented with
the welcome screen, then the Country or Region selection page. In order to enjoy
the full benets of the mCloud system it is advised an internet wired or wireless
network connection is available. You will then be guided through the various
pages to set up and login into your mCloud account.
Setting up a User Prole
The HD96-24 incorporates a system of User Proles for storing information about
the console set-up and other User info. Each person using the HD system can
have their own prole which keeps all your show les and other useful
information on the console and via the mCloud network if the HD system
has an active internet connection.
After the system has been registered and is turned on for the second time you will
be asked to either log in or create and add a new prole.
1. Current selected prole.
2. Change user prole
3. Login to your mCloud account (all active les in your account
will be available in Show Manager).
4. Safe Mode (the show database is not available in safe mode,
but you can still mix).
5. Activates the lock screen.
6. Shutdown the console.
Saving your work
We recommend that you save your work regularly to the mCloud and a USB stick
while carrying out the procedures included in this guide. Not only is this good
practice during normal operation, but in this instance, it may save you from losing
some set-ups that could prove useful later on.

The HD96-24 has 4 fully assignable fader banks split into three banks of eight faders and one bank with four faders each with individual full colour ultra-bright LCD
displays. Any section can be assigned to any function, be it inputs, outputs, POPs, VCA, Matrices or Masters. This concept allows the user to fully customise the surface to
suit their mixing preferences.
The global assignable shortcuts area can be used to provide many simple and complex functions with macro style controls right at your ngertips. E.g. Pop group
selection, triggering macros or automation recall.
The assignable controls above the faders and to the side of the GUI can be fully customised to suit your workow. Functions can be changed quickly with the cursor
arrow controls. For e.g. altering pan position, aux control or gain changes.
Channel strip layout
Each channel strip within a bank provides:
(1) LCD Display - A high-resolution display providing metering,
channel information and ip status.
and local parameter values.
(2) Sel (Fader Channel Select) - This button selects the channel for a variety
of operations, including adjusting parameters from the GUI and assigning
to the channel detail area.
(3) COMP - Compressor gain reduction meter (GR).
(4) INPUT - Input metering.
(5) GATE - Gate gain attenuation meter (GA).
(6) MUTE - Press the MUTE button to mute (turn o) the channel.
(7) SOLO - Press SOLO to listen to the channel signal.
(8) LEVEL - The fader is touch sensitive providing gain control
from -∞ to +10dB (or +6dB if contributing to an output bus).
Chapter 4: About the Control Surface
The HD96-24 has been designed from the ground up to give the operator easy-to-use touchscreen controls along with familiar analogue style controls. This clever
combining of working methods ensures any engineer can walk up to this console and instantly feel at home, but when required can delve deeper into the system to
achieve complex routing and detailed sonic manipulation.
The surface is constructed on a robust Midas steel frame chassis similar to those used in established Midas analogue products. All of the surface is controlled from two
processors. All associated power supplies, computer motherboards, Wi-Fi router, Bluetooth, memory, graphics cards etc. are housed within the surface, which also
contains a digital audio router box that supports local I/O connectors on the rear panel. Substantial forced air-cooling is provided by a bulkhead and large (but slow
moving) internal fans. The large capacitive touchscreen displays a large quantity of information and can be customised to match your workow to make mixing a
pleasure. Using modern day gestures from mobile phone and tablet technology such as pinch and swipe makes parameter manipulation even faster and more
responsive with up to 10 simultaneous touch points.
The HD96-24 system is designed to be easy to see for colour blind people. Great care has been taken to make the system visible to as many types of colour blind people
as possible.
Control surface layout
The HD96-24 surface can be spilt in to 7 distinct areas making operation quick and precise with all controls close to hand. The areas are dened in the diagram below.

Chapter 5: System Setup
Unpacking the equipment
After carefully unpacking the equipment, save all packing materials, as they will
prove useful should it become necessary to transport the equipment later. Inspect
the equipment carefully for any sign of damage incurred during transportation. It
has undergone stringent quality control inspection and tests prior to packing and
was in perfect condition when it left the factory. However, if the equipment shows
any signs of damage, notify the transportation company without delay. Only
you, the consignee, may institute a claim against the carrier for damage during
transportation.
Racking the I/O
Please take note of the rack requirements as detailed below:
To ensure the correct installation and function of the outboard equipment,
any rack has to meet the following general requirements:
Shock mounting (for non-installation environments)
The rack must provide adequate shock protection of the units it houses by
incorporating appropriately-designed shock protection methods. For example, a
foam-suspended rack or a frame suspended on anti-vibration mounts.
Ventilation
The HD96-24 has air intake vents on each side of the console. Air is drawn in
through the console side vents and exits via the two fans on the rear of the
surface. It is vital none of these airways are blocked as overheating may occur if
airow is restricted.
The Midas I/O units have been designed such that their internal ventilation airow
is drawn in through the front of the unit and expelled though the rear. To facilitate
this, rack design must ensure that cool air can ow freely through the rack in the
same direction, that is, in through the front of the rack and out through the rear.
Situations where the air ows in a circular direction around and through a Midas
I/O unit must be prevented. Midas recommends that racks with fully opening front
and rear doors are used.
Caution
Never combine units in the same rack that have been designed for a ventilation
air ow direction other than that designed for the MIDAS units. To avoid this, we
recommend that any non-MIDAS units are housed separately.
Rack mount supports
Always secure the rear of the Midas I/O units to the rack via their rear rack mount
support brackets. These brackets are tted to every Midas I/O unit and are
recommended for use in touring applications.
Handles on rack case
You must ensure that there are sucient external handles tted to the rack casing
to enable the rack to be manoeuvred easily and safely, and by the number of
personnel suitable for the task. Also, these handles must be t for purpose.
Clearance at rear of units
Ensure an adequate clearance at the rear of the units to provide sucient free
space to enable the cables to achieve their minimum bend radius.
Securing the cables
We recommend that the cables at the rear of the units be tidied using lacing bars
and cable ties. This should provide optimum access to the rear of the units for
connecting other cables, switching the units on/o etc., and also to give
maximum visibility of the units’ LEDs for determining communication status,
link status, condition of audio etc.
Connection instructions
There are currently two ways to connect the system equipment together:
1. HD96-24 surface to a Klark Teknik DN9680 via copper (up to 100 m) or with a
multi-mode (MM) bre optic snake (up to 500 m). Then Klark Teknik DN9680 to
I/O box (for example, DL231) via Cat5E (up to 100 m).
2. HD96-24 surface direct to I/O (for example, DL231) via Cat5E (up to 100 m).
It is imperative only STP Cat5E Rated cables are used!
Length = 100M Point to point as per the Cate5E ethernet protocol - Please take
into consideration any in line connections or links reduce the overall cable length.
AES50 Cat5e STP vs UTP cables.
Music Tribe are standardising the use of Ethercon cables used for AES50
connections and state that customers must use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)
cable only with shielded RJ45 plugs and Ethercon shells.
STP cable has the added advantage of a foil or braided shield that guards the cable
against electromagnetic interference. A good foil or braided shield and correctly
connected shielded plugs and shells also helps protect against Electrostatic
discharge (ESD) that can be the cause of dropouts on AES50 connections.
Occasionally shielded Ethercon cables will leave the shield disconnected on
one end to help with ground loops, even though it has no benet for AES50
connections. These connections should have continuity of the shield on both ends
including the Ethercon shells. This will ensure the best possible protection against
strong ESD impacts, such as handling discharges or even lightning strikes in the
neighbourhood.
All AES/EBU connections must use good quality 110Ω AES/EBU cable to ensure
correct operation.
Front and rear panel connections
The surface has connector panels on both the front and rear. The front connector panel to the right of the GUI has an XLR socket and a USB sockets for connecting a talk
mic and USB device, respectively. For example, you can connect a USB memory stick for show le backup and transfer. Under the armrests at either side there are two
6.35 mm headphone sockets which link to Mon A and Mon B respectively.
HD96-24 Basic Operation
Global Assignable Shortcuts
The Global Assignable Shortcuts area in the centre of the surface allows various
functions to be placed within easy reach of the user. Twelve full colour LCD displays
with selection buttons show a great deal of information and allow for complex
operations to be recalled with one button press.
Home
The HOME key is located under the Shortcuts area. When pressed the
HOME workow is brought to the GUI.
Tap
The TAP button is used to set the tempo for eects assigned to the
Global TAP tempo function. Commonly 8 taps are required for an accurate tempo.
Arrow Keys
These two keys tab through the various pages of the global assignable
shortcuts pages which can be fully customised.
The familiar looking Channel Detail Area is used for hands on control with sections
for Cong, Equaliser, Dynamics, Phones, Talk, Solo, Monitor, Main Bus and Master.
This area makes using the surface easy to use with a familiar analogue feel. The 4
x Change Over (C/O) buttons for Master, Mono, Monitor A and Monitor B assign the
control to the fader below for quick control by fader level.

To power up the system
Important Note:
Make sure your speaker system, in-ears or monitor wedges are muted until the start-up of the system has been completed.
After all system interconnections have been made, start up the system by doing the following:
Switching on the HD96-24
1. Plug the two mains cables into the mains power outlets. Both power supply modules should be supplying power to the
HD96-24 surface for correct redundant operation.
2. Plug the connectors of the mains cables into the IEC mains sockets on the rear of the HD96-2
3. Turn on the power to the HD96-24 surface by switching both AC POWER switches on. The surface will boot up.
Once the default GUI screen is displayed, it is ready for use.
To switch o the HD96-24 surface
1. Make sure you have saved any shows, scenes or settings you require.
2. In the GUI, select Menu from the top bar, then press and hold the red
SHUTDOWN button at the bottom of the menu until the line traces around the outside of the red button. The shutdown procedure will then initiate.
3. The screen will go blank, the Midas logo will briey be displayed, then the screen will go blank for a second time indicating the shutdown procedure has nished.
Only once the system has been shutdown correctly is it safe to turn o both AC power switches (rear of surface).

Chapter 6 Surface Controls
The HD96-24 has full multi-touch screen control. This gives the user some of the
feeling of working with analogue consoles again whilst at the same time
incorporating modern ways of interacting with everyday products like
smartphones and tablets. One of the advantages digital consoles have over
analogue ones is that their channel count is not limited by the control surface
hardware. However, this means that only a certain number of channels can be
shown on the control surface at any time, while the others are available at the
touch of the screen (GUI) or assignable shortcuts area.
Pressing the SEL (select) button on any input or output will bring the chosen
channel to the surface controls (also to the touch screen widgets). From here
adjustments to many common parameters can be changed such as Gain, EQ,
Dynamics or Pan position. This way of working has a familiar feel that you will
understand and be comfortable to use. Mute will turn the channel o and solo
will send the audio of the selected path to either the A or B solo bus depending on
path settings.
Navigating via the surface detail area
The surface is laid out with a familiar analogue feel for easy operation. Everyday
functions are available for hands on operation. All functions are mirrored in the
GUI with parameter values highlighted on touch. This allows you to make changes
quickly to the selected channel or path.
HD96-24 Basic Operation
Setting up the ID of the unit(s)
After connecting up your system, you may need to set up the ID of the unit(s) in the rack, such as the DL231 I/O or DL15x I/O, as each unit within the same family of units
must have its own unique ID number.
Please refer to the DL series or HD manuals for full details on changing unit ID’s.
A connector panel on the rear of the control surface has two main sections. On the left are two mains power inlet and ventilation assemblies, with 2 x AC power switches
below. The right-section contains connections for the Snake/Multicore, Ethernet control, eight analogue audio inputs and outputs, three AES3 inputs and outputs,
diagnostics, word clock, Twin HDMI™ external monitor outputs, Midi, Talkback (line level input), two expansion card slots and USB Hub.
External interfaces and peripheral devices
Various devices can be used with the HD96-24 such an external USB keyboard.
MIDI Standard 5-pin connectors are housed in the rear panel for use as MIDI IN, OUT and THRU ports. These are also tted on some I/O units (DL231, DL251 for example)
and, therefore, are available at both the FOH and the stage locations.
USB 2 x 4way USB 3.0 hubs are provided on the rear of the HD96-24. In addition, a USB port can be found to the right of GUI screen for convenient le transfer.
The Fader Port USB outputs are only for use with future fader bank expansions.
External monitor The HD96-24 has 2 HDMI™ connections on the rear panel to connect extra displays (1920 x 1080p 59.94Hz/60Hz 16:9 &
720 x 480p 59.94Hz/60Hz 16:9 supported).
