Hot Buttons for DCS, Maestro and XStudio!
Play any of as many as 400 carts instantly using buttons organized in pages of 20 buttons each and, if desired, use the provided channel queues (one for each of three channels) to "stack" a list of one-shot plays and then use the transport controls ( [Play], [Pause], [Stop] ). Access to the host audio unit's inventory is provided, too.
Optionally enable touch-screen mode, which changes ezCart 2001's behavior to mimic that of loading cart decks and playing what's in the deck on-demand.
ezCart 2001 runs on a standard PC and provides the ability to control a host Maestro, DCS or XStudio unit.
Connect the PC on which you are running ezCart 2001 to a DCS or Maestro 3 unit directly (via serial cable) or use rcServer to communicate with the host audio unit. In the case of rcServer, you are communicating via TCPIP and ezCart 2001 can be literally anywhere that accommodates the TCP/IP connection to rcServer.
For XStudio, use TCP/IP as the connection method.
