This means that, in the very unlikely event of the master audio engine developing a problem, audio is automatically and transparently switched to the RE without any interruption in programme material. Audio processing can be switched back to the main console work surface at any time with the press of a single screen button. The D5 RE is flightcased, contains a complete D5 engine assembly, two PSUs and trackball keyboard for set-up procedure. An external monitor is required for console visuals.
