Abstract: An audio signal processing device and a parameter adjusting method, configured such that: a two-channel screen displaying a plurality of parameters for each of two channels allocated to any two channel strips, in accordance with operation of edit buttons of the two channel strips, is displayed on a display; each of a plurality of parameters for one channel, out of the two channels displayed in the two-channel screen, are allocated to a control of each channel strip in a first group; each of a plurality of parameters for the other channel are allocated to a control of each channel strip in a second group; and values of the parameters allocated to the controls are adjusted in accordance with operation of the controls.

Abstract: A controller includes a plurality of channel strips to which are allocated any one of a plurality of channels to be handled in a DAW. Each of the channel strips includes a channel strip display section, a movable fader capable of indicating a sound volume level of the allocated channel by means of a knob position of the fader, and a slide operation reception section operable to successively change the allocated channel. During a slide operation on the reception section, a CPU continuously updates only displayed content on the channel strip display section of each of the channel strips by a variation amount corresponding to the slide operation. Upon completion of the slide operation on the reception section, the CPU moves, through automatic control, the knob position of the movable fader of each of the channel strips.

Abstract: A method of controlling a plurality of external devices is performed on a computer which is set up with a plurality of remote control processes corresponding to the plurality of the external devices, and a management process for managing the remote control processes while communicating with the remote control processes. The management process is called to display icons corresponding to the remote control processes in a display field provided by the management process. Further, the management process acts when a specified operation is applied to one of the icons on the display field for sending a screen open instruction to one of the remote control processes corresponding to the icon to which the specified operation is applied. The remote control process which receives the screen open instruction is activated to display a control screen for use in remotely controlling the corresponding external device.

Abstract: In an audio signal processing device having a plurality of tracks recording an audio signal supplied from any of a plurality of buses, when a track is selected in accordance with an operation by a user, a bus supplying the audio signal to the track is searched, and when an appropriate bus is found and it is judged affirmative that a signal input device having an indicator whose display contents can be controlled by the audio signal processing device supplies the audio signal to the found bus, control data for making an indicator corresponding to a transmission port supplying the audio signal to the found bus perform a display indicating that the transmission port is connected to the selected track.

Abstract: A controller includes a plurality of channel strips to which are allocated any of a plurality of channels to be handled in a DAW. Each of the channel strips includes a slide operation reception section that receives a slide operation. The slide operation reception sections of the plurality of channel strips are constructed to function as a single slide operation reception unit and to receive a slide operation performed in an arranged direction of the channel strips. Thus, by the slide operation, a user can intuitively and collectively change the allocated channels of the strip channels with a feeling as if merely changing (shifting) the allocated channel of a given channel strip to another channel strip.

Abstract: In a mixer system having a digital mixer having functions of processing an audio signal in an input channel and outputting the signal via an ST bus, and a PC executing a DAW application realizing a function of plural tracks to record waveform data, a WET button corresponding to the input channel is provided to the digital mixer to select a DRY mode for inputting signal which is inputted from outside the device to the input channel, to the ST bus without sending the signal to the DAW application, or a WET mode for inputting signal which are inputted from outside the device to input channel, to the ST bus after sending the signal to the DAW application for processing and being sent back to the digital mixer, in response to a pressing of the WET button.

Abstract: In a mixer system having a digital mixer having functions processing waveform data in plural input channels and outputting the data via an ST bus, and a PC executing a DAW application realizing a function of plural tracks to record and reproduce waveform data, it is made possible to set a first mode instructing the digital mixer to process waveform data inputted from outside the system in all input channels and the DAW application to mix the waveform data in all tracks to supply to the ST bus of the digital mixer, and a second mode instructing the digital mixer to process waveform data received from the DAW application in all input channels and the DAW application to send the waveform data in all tracks to corresponding input channels of the digital mixer.
