Getting Started with DME Designer
Thank you for purchasing the DME64N/24N.
Your DME64N/24N mixing engine, together the DME Designer software, lets you build a custom audio
system installation that can support an incredible variety of conditions. You can build an entire system
from input to output with the DME Designer software, then send the data from that system to the
DME64N/24N, which becomes an independent processor.
An amazing variety of applications are possible, including audio installations, sub-mixing, speaker
system control, matrix/routing, and multi-effect processing.
In this manual the abbreviation “DME” refers to the DME64N/24N.

About DME Designer
DME Designer is software that provides an integrated environment where you can build and control
systems that use DME.
Audio systems with DME are built on the computer screen in block diagram format using the DME
Designer software. Information about the inputs/outputs along with the arrangement of components
and their connections is called the “configuration.”
The software sends DME settings, along with configuration and parameter data, to the DME unit
through a USB or Ethernet connection. Once the data is transferred, the DME unit can be
disconnected from the computer and used as an independent processor. The DME can also be kept
connected to the computer and controlled in realtime from DME Designer software.
If multiple DME units are connected to the computer, you can use the DME Designer software to build
a configuration that includes those multiple units.
For a DME overview and glossary, see the “DME64N/24N Owner’s Manual.”
Systems built with DME Designer can have multiple zones within an area and multiple configurations
and scenes within a zone. However, only one area, zone, or configuration can be made active and
edited at a time. When active these are called the “Current Zone,” “Current Scene,” and “Current
Configuration.”
One DME unit/Zone
Area This means the entire site, and is therefore the uppermost level for a system built using
DME Designer. At least one zone must be located within the area.
Zone Specifies a space that has individual sound effects within the area, and creates DME
connection conditions. You can create and switch between multiple configurations.
Configuration Information related to the layout and connection of components in a zone.
Scene Information related to configuration assigned to a zone and the settings of the
components included in the configuration.
Component An object that is arranged within the Configuration window.

Zone Window
The Zone window is used to design zones within the area. A zone is a more concrete blueprint that
includes at least one DME. It shows the DME’s connections with other devices and the wiring
between them. You can create multiple zones.
The DME units and connected devices are arranged in each Zone window, creating configurations.
Configuration Window
The Configuration window is used to design the internal configuration of each DME unit contained
in the Zone window. By arranging and connecting components (audio processors like mixers,
compressors, effects, and crossovers, along with parts like faders and meters) in the Configuration
window, you can create things like complex processors or matrix mixers, that determine the actual
internal structure that operates each DME unit.
User Module Window
The User Module window is used for designing user modules that can be arranged in the
Configuration window. You can create original modules by combining multiple examples of often-
used components. When you save these modules as presets, you can recall them easily whenever
you want.

Toolkit Window
The Toolkit window displays the objects that you can use in each window that can be displayed in
the Designer window. Those windows are the Area, Zone, Configuration, and User Module
windows. The Toolkit displays different objects, according to the currently active window. To place
an object in a window, double-click it in the Toolkit window where it is displayed or drag it to the
currently active window.
Navigator Window
The Navigator window displays the area, zones, configurations, and components in a hierarchal
fashion that lets you check their status as a whole. When editing offline, you can click an area
name, zone name, or configuration name to make that window active. Clicking a component name
will open the component editor window for that component.
Objects and Components
Object” is the name for the parts that are arranged in the various design windows, such as the
Area, Zone, Configuration, and User Module windows. Objects are always laid out in the Toolkit
window. Only the appropriate objects for each window are displayed. The blocks displayed at the
higher level of the Toolkit window in particular are called “components.” This refers to each type of
processor that operates the DME. “Object” normally refers to Picture, Text, Ellipse and other items
that are used after connecting them by wire to the various components.
Component Editor
The blocks that are arranged in the configuration window are called “components.” Audio processors
like mixers, compressors, effects, and crossovers, along with parts like faders and meters, are used
for this purpose in the Configuration window.
When you double-click on a component block arranged in the Configuration window, the Component
Editor window will open. There you can edit the parameters for that component. The types of
parameters displayed will differ, depending on the component.

Resource Meter
This window provides an indication of the usage of the components in the configuration window. The
usage percentage increases as the number of components increases, and is shown in graph form in
this window.
This window is shown at the same time as the designer window, and provides a guide when creating
configurations.
The usage percentage also depends on the sampling frequency at which the DME unit is set to
operate. Make sure that the usage percentage is kept below 100%.
Window Operations
Operations in all windows are the same as for normal Windows applications. The windows are
controlled with the [Minimize], [Maximize/Restore], and [Close] buttons at the upper right of the title
bar. DME Designer is closed by clicking the [Close] button on the Main Panel window.

Users and Security
You can create multiple users in DME Designer and set the functions that are available to each user.
Although users who will design and put together installations must be able to use all the functions of
DME Designer, users who will only operate the system can be restricted to functions that will not allow
them to accidentally change the settings.
DME Designer is used with one user at a time logged on. To change the user, click the [File] menu
[Log Off] command on the Main Panel window.
About Users
To use DME Designer, you must logon when you start the software. Except for the first time the
software is started or when separate settings are made for the first time, you can logon by specifying
the name and password for a user that has been set as the administrator. The administrator can build
the system as a whole, or apply function limitations that let other people edit. Administrators or other
people that can use DME Designer are called “users.” The user name for the currently logged on user
appears below [User] on the Main Panel window.
The default user, named [Administrator], is set to use all of the functions. Immediately after DME
Designer is installed, [Administrator] is the only user, and there is no password set.
Multiple users can be created. When the system administrator creates multiple users, restrictions can
be applied separately for each one of them. A user with restrictions applied can edit using only the
functions the administrator enables for him.
The place to create, setup, and delete users is the “Security” dialog box. See “Security (Creating
Users and Making User Settings)” on page 55.

Logging On
The “Log On” dialog box is displayed whenever the application is started or a user is logged off.
Whenever one user is already logged on, another user cannot be logged on. To log on as another
user, first log off the currently logged on user.
The “Log On” dialog box
1 [User]
From the list, select the user you want to log on as.
2 [Password] Box
Enter the password.
3 [OK] Button
Log on as the selected user.
4 [Exit] Button
When the application is started, and the “Log On” dialog box is displayed, there is an [Exit]
button. This closes the application without logging on a user.
5 [Cancel] Button
When the “Log On” dialog box is displayed after a user is logged off, there is a [Cancel] button
instead of an [Exit] button. This cancels the logoff. The original user will continue to be logged
on.
Logon Procedure
1 Click [] at the right of the [User].
A drop-down list of user names will be displayed.
2 Click the user you want to log on.
3 Enter the password into the [Password] box.
When you type in the password box, the characters you enter will display as asterisks (*).
4 Click the [OK] button.
NOTE
If the automatic logon feature is enabled, the “Log On” dialog box will not be displayed when the application is started.
Instead, the auto-logon user will be logged on automatically.
