Additional notes

Ovation 10 Product Changes

• Windows 7 no longer supported

MassCore Technical Notes

• MassCore not supported on Core2Duo. Minimum requirement is a QuadCore. Find system recommendations here: http://www.merging.com/support/pc-config
• MassCore is supported under Windows 10 (64bit).
• Ovation 10 runs on Ovation 9 keys for the duration of the Ovation 10 beta cycle
• Ovation 10 runs on the same MassCore (RTX64 3.7.4) as of Ovation 9 Hotfix 3 and 4.
  MassCore is now protected by Merging key security.
• MassCore Ultra Low latency mode can generate noise if used on some configurations (Turnkey recommended).
  In such cases we recommend instead the use of the AES67 mode or Extra Low latency mode.
• Ovation Core indicator overloading (red) issue. Recommendation:
  • Under a 64 bit OS: MassCore RTX 64bit users are allowed to run with Hyperthreading enabled. In such case users will by default have 2 Core allocated to MassCore RTX64, as we leave a pair number of Cores for Windows.
    Merging recommends to having an SMP key under such configurations.
  • If, under the Bios power options, you have entries such as the Intel SpeedStep and CPU C State make sure that these options are disabled, as they are potential problems for MassCore. Refer to installation guide or the Windows Configuration guide for all details.
• MassCore & CPU load indicator range (as of Pyramix v10.2 and above)
  • Green from 0% to 74% = Safe mode*
  • Orange from 75% to 84% = Moderate Risk*
  • Red from 85%->100% = High Risk
    *MassCore users will have enhanced Core stability when using recommended dedicated Graphic Cards.
    *Native users: Recent laptop owners are often confronted with performance problems when the CPU load is near the mid-point of load, where random CPU jumps can cause sudden glitches. This has also been seen when benchmarking with Non-Merging Applications on recent laptops.
• When the Core indicator blinks (red), it indicates a drop. Only be concerned if it occurred during Playback/Mix down or Record. To reset the Core drop simply click on the Core indicator. For more information please refer to the appropriate section in the User Manual.
• If you have VST Core peaks under MassCore, users should increase their VST Engine Buffer size value, located under the Ovation Settings. More information is available in the User Manual.
• External Insert plug-ins: The same input and output cannot be used in the External Insert plug-in and the Mixer at the same time, as they are exclusive to either one.

Plugin Engine Notice

The plugins engine Core distribution is done automatically for optimal performance. The total Core load of the Strips plugins will be processed first, followed by the total Core load of the Bus plugins. The engine is sequentially performing those two processing tasks. Meaning that a high Core load on the Strips plugins side is not summed with a high Core load on the Bus plugins side.
Changing a designated Core load to another one is not possible (unless modifying the Mixer configuration) and in no way would it change the total sum of processing passed to the engine for the chosen plugins.

About the Plugins Distribution Core Reading
We measure the time duration of the plugin itself. Time to process Audio Frame / Duration of the plugin itself * 100 = Load for a single plugin. We then compute the multiple plugins (on a chosen Strip or Bus by example) and we calculate the summation of those.

Do not to confuse with the readings below :
Pyramix CPU reading:
The CPU load displayed in the Pyramix bottom bar is not the CPU usage as computed in Windows task manager. CPU load in Native is computed in this way: (time to process audio frame) / (duration of one frame) * 100. Thus, it is the percentage of time used to process in one audio frame duration; this indicator is more useful than CPU Usage because it takes in account CPU stall during processing time.
In MassCore based systems the CPU: load indicator is supplemented by a VST: Core load indicator in the Title Bar. Refer to the Pyramix User Manual for more details.
Windows Task Manager:
Then windows will on its Task Manager CPU measures the CPU time as a percentage of the CPU's capacity.
So, in the end you just cannot open those 3 Windows and expect to have the same readings.

Merging Audio Device (MAD) 2.0

This ASIO RAVENNA/AES67 device supports Multi ASIO Clients and integrates WDM Support.  With this new Device Driver multiple applications running ASIO can be launched in parallel on a same system, sharing the same sampling rate and at the same time multiple applications running WDM can be launched in parallel and have their own sampling rate automatically converted to the ASIO sampling rate. This allows monitoring the Windows system sound and any application (such as Spotify, YouTube, PC Sounds files,…) along with any ASIO applications.
Refer to the online MAD documentation for all details https://merging.atlassian.net/wiki/display/DSI/MAD+Docs

• • Two different modes supported
    • Unite Mode (Automatic Simplified connectivity for Anubis Music Mission, Horus and Hapi). Unite does not support the Anubis running the Monitor Mission.
    • RAV/AES67 mode (Pro usage for Anubis, Hapi and Horus)
    • NADAC mode (HiFi usage for NADAC users)
    • MassCore mode
  • Multi-Client ASIO and thus hosts supported  
  • Bridge channels support between ASIO clients
  • WDM Support and second AUX WDM (as of MAD 2.0)
  • Bridge channels support for WDM and Host.
    Note: One sampling rate at a time supported for ASIO (The default host one). WDM supports SRC.

MAD Infrastructure Pack (PSO-MAD-INF) required for:

• • Virtual Machine Support
  • ST2022-7 Support
  • NMOS Support

ANEMAN

Important: The ANEMAN comes as a separate installer.
Please download and install the latest ANEMAN in order to manage and monitor your AoIP devices from https://www.merging.com/products/aneman

Ambisonic

Since Pyramix 12/Ovation 8  we include a complete hybrid Channel Based/Ambisonic workflow, allowing for encoding, mixing, rotating and decoding Ambisonic signal directly in the mixing console.

Ambisonic Decoders:

• • Ambisonic Decoders supported up to 7th in v12, and the b<>com Decoders are now integrated within the Pyramix mixer as of Pyramix 12.0 and upwards.

 VR Pack Key option:

• • Ambisonic Strips and Ambisonic Groups of 1st and 2nd order are always decoded even if the VR Pack key is not present
  • Ambisonic Strips and Ambisonic Groups of 3rd to 7th order are properly decoded if the VR Pack key is present
  • Ambisonic Strips and Ambisonic Groups of 3rd to 7th order are decoded using a 2nd order decoder if the VR Pack key is NOT present

To summarize, a user will need the VR Pack key to encode and/or decode HOA, meaning 3rd to 7th order. 1st and 2nd orders are free of charge for both encoding and decoding.
Note: HOA to Binaural is not available into Pyramix but users can run the B<>COM Binaural encoder licence, available in trial. Follow the instruction here for more information https://merging.atlassian.net/wiki/display/PUBLICDOC/Bcom+plugins

RAVENNA Technical Notes

• Windows 10 (64bit) is supported by Ovation 10 MassCore RAVENNA and Native
• Ovation 10 system recommendations. Details here: http://www.merging.com/pages/pcconfig
• For ultimate performance we recommend that under ANEMAN you only connect the necessary I/O connections, as every extra RAVENNA connection will use some bandwidth (Core or Network)
• The Network must be Layer 3 compliant and must be a Gigabit network
• Merging has certified new Network Switches for use with Horus/Hapi – Ravenna users will find all details along with the configuration guide here:
  https://merging.atlassian.net/wiki/display/PUBLICDOC/Network+Switches+for+RAVENNA+-+AES67
  http://www.merging.com/products/horus/downloads
• RAVENNA users should avoid connecting multiple Horus or Hapi units to any a router/Network not certified by Merging. Refer to the Merging RAVENNA Network Guide for details on the certified RAVENNA switches and their configuration. http://www.merging.com/products/horus/downloads
• Only RAVENNA devices can be connected to the Merging PCIe Ethernet Controller Card NET-MSC-GBEX1. Avoid connecting non-RAVENNA devices to this network, such as Tango/Isis/Euphonix controllers or other network devices.
• Don’t connect a 100MB Ethernet device if the switch is not multicast; otherwise, the flow control will reduce the bandwidth drastically.
• RAVENNA I/O Connections:
  In order to create RAVENNA I/O connections please refer to the ANEMAN User Manual (installed along with Pyramix). ANEMAN Quick Connection Guide here below.
  https://merging.atlassian.net/wiki/display/PUBLICDOC/ANEMAN+-+Quick+Connection+Guide
  Refer to the ANEMAN User Manual for more details.
  Recalling RAVENNA connections for a complete setup.
  Despite not yet having a complete recall of IO Connections it is possible on certain setups to recall the Presets store in the device (Horus, Hapi, Anubis) that holds one end of the RAVENNA connections and at the same time recall the ANEMAN save connections that holds the other connections end.
  Warning: It is strongly advised that before recalling connection that users clear the existing connections.
• Firewall:
  Firewalls can block communication between the computer and the Ravenna devices.
  The Merging installers automatically opens the required communication ports in the Windows Firewall.
  If you don’t use the Windows firewall or if you encounter connection issues, we recommend to disable the Network Firewall.
  Windows Firewall Procedure:
  Go in Windows Control Panel > Windows Firewall.
  Click on “Turn Windows Firewall on or off”
  Go to the Public Network section and select “Turn Off Windows Firewall”
