Software monitor and control application for use with a digital audio studio suite

摘要

A crosspoint matrix for digital signal routing and control, the matrix realized by software code includes a plurality of configurable inputs adapted to accept one or more input signals; a plurality of configurable outputs connected via signal paths to the inputs; and a plurality of variable gain control circuits described by code at each signal path intersection for enabling signal strength level adjustment. In a preferred embodiment, the matrix is a software interface inserted between a sound editing application and a sound card.

主权项

1. A system for providing a software-based interface with a digital sound editing application, the system comprising:
a computer-readable storage medium embodying program code, wherein execution of the program code by a processor implements a crosspoint matrix for digital signal routing, wherein the crosspoint matrix is logically inserted between the digital sound editing application and a sound output device, the crosspoint matrix including:
a plurality of configurable inputs adapted to accept one or more input signals from the digital sound editing application running on a host computer;a plurality of configurable outputs connected via signal paths to one or more of the configurable inputs and configured to route signals to audio monitoring equipment;a plurality of signal path intersections, each signal path intersection corresponding to a single associated input-output pair; anda variable gain controller at each signal path intersection; and a graphic user interface allowing for user control of a signal level by adjusting one or more of the variable gain controllers through one or more virtual controls displayed on the graphic user interface.
