In a world that seem to be gradually moving towards working and mixing 'in the box', there are still situations where hands-on control is second to none. 

Monitor control is one of those cases. Enter MOM - DAD's Monitor Operating Module.

MOM is the perfect, tactile match for one or more AX32 and DX32R units equipped with the PRO|MON|3 monitor control license. The MOM is a remote control, connected via Ethernet, and no audio is actually passing through the unit. The audio-routing magic happens within the AX32 or DX32R and is set up via the DADman software. But once you connect the MOM, the magic now resides right at your fingertips.

The Unexpected Feature

DAD never settles for 'the standard solutions' and MOM is no exception to that rule. So there is one feature - and knob on the control surface - that is unique to MOM. 

The LAYER function allows you to tailor several different roles in the configuration settings within the DADman software with PRO|MON|3 license. 

Now, why would you want that? Well, even though some of the knobs are labeled - and setup by default - to select speaker sets and sources, you can alter what functions they should control freely. Imagine having up to 4 different versions of this controller - each tailored for specific tasks within your production workflow - that you can switch between in seconds. 

Another useful application for the layers are for large production rooms where many engineers share the controller. Now, each could tailor their own preset that suits them perfectly. Or in the case where an external producer or director sometimes attends mixing or tracking sessions. Then you could add more MOMs to the room and assign different 'user roles'. Not everyone has to be able to control the Master Volume.
