UNIDEX is an acronym for Universal Desktop with EXternal adapters. The design basis was to make a digital console without the complexity of an IP console (which requires everything to be connected through a dedicated data network) but that allows great connection and configuration flexibility, including audio over IP compatibility.
This is how the external adapters were born, which connect directly to the console through a new universal input designed by Solidyne called UNIDEX. In this way, the user can expand the console by acquiring external modules for telecommunications, microphones, other audio interfaces, and intercoms.
The outputs for headphones and studio monitors will be in the console (and not in a distant rack …)
The 4-channel and 16-channel USB connections used by PCs (in front of the operator) will be on the console
The Main microphone inputs will be on the console
The AES3 / Spdif Inputs / Outputs of the control table devices are in the console (and not in a remote rack)
The inputs for Studio microphones (which are in front of the operator) are also on the console
In this way, the existing wiring in a studio is preserved without changes. Flexible cables attached to the tiny RJ45 connectors disappear from view because they are covered by the removable aluminium termination of the console
