The AX32 s internal processing engine is now capable of providing PPM level information and level control for all 1,500 input and outputs. These can be viewed on a standard PC control screen when viewing signals in the new DADman 5.0 software.

This new functionality in is addition to the 256 x 32 summing processing which is used to provide Pro | Mon monitor control. A user-configurable low latency cue mixer, Cue | Mix, has also been added.

The range of I/O cards for the AX32 has been expanded with the introduction of a dual MADI I/O module plus an 8 Line I/O AES3 (AES/EBU) module with optional sampling rate conversion. These can be installed as plug-in modules and configured from the control software.

The new cards supplement the existing eight channel Pristine Analogue Line input card, the eight channel Pristine Analogue Mic/Line input card, eight channel Pristine Analogue Line output card and the dual 3G SDI embedder/de-embedder card with sampling rate converter. Up-to eight cards of the digital type can installed and up-to six of the analogue cards can be accommodated. It is also possible to accommodate six analogue plus two digital cards at the same time.
