SAMM - RML Labs

SAMM's interface is designed to give you quick access and total control of every aspect of the hardware. The program is intuitive, easy to use and allows live hands-on mixing as well as powerful automation and cue control of mix sequences. It emulates the look and feel of a traditional hardware console, so mixing with SAMM is straight forward and easy to learn.

Powerful 32-bit assembly language programming allows SAMM to do what others have said is impossible in the Windows environment. Limited Windows resources make it very difficult to animate hundreds of live controls on-screen with standard programming techniques. SAMM is a virtual assembly language engine that lifts the program from the Windows bottlenecks and allows incredibly fast and detailed graphics to be smoothly handled without taxing Windows at all. SAMM will easily co-exist with other Windows programs, including Sequencers and Innovative Quality Software's SAW and SAWPlus systems. Imagine building a complete multitrack digital audio hard disk workstation with fully automated and SMPTE-locked MIDI sequencing and mixing for less than you might pay for one high-end laptop computer! "Never before in the history of audio has so much power been so affordable!"

SAMM can be configured to run up to 16 ProMix 01 consoles, allowing you to simultaneously control up to 288 inputs from one PC!

In live performance applications the benefits are tremendous. There's no need to take up precious real estate with bulky consoles. The mixers can remain backstage and easily be controlled from a small computer station. Unlimited numbers of presets can be saved to hard disk and recalled instantaneously. Entire setups for different acts can be selected instantly with the press of a button. The mixer can also be triggered by footswitch or SMPTE time code, allowing complex show automation sequences to be performed effortlessly and perfectly, every performance. SAMM's, ability to generate SMPTE and MIDI Machine Control commands allows it to become the center of a show control situation, controlling lighting consoles, hydraulics, video decks, etc., all for a fraction of the cost you would expect to pay for such power.

In small studio applications, the advantages again are numerous. Now that 'Sweet Spot' in your studio can be used more by listeners and less by reflection-creating consoles. Multiple mixers can be easily stacked in a closet, providing a unique low cost solution to the need for many inputs to control MIDI modules for example. A MIDI sequencer can be run on the same computer and you can control and automate your entire session using SAMM. Mix in live audio tape tracks and also control these signals at the same time, bringing incredible flexibility to your production facility.

Keep in mind that SAMM is not only controlling faders and mutes, but EQ level, frequency and bandwidth as well. All aux/cue sends and returns and built in reverbs and compressors are also part of the interface.

Other industries, such as lighting, have had computer control for years. Now its time for the audio industry to jump in and go beyond.  SAMM truly is a Vision Of Tomorrow.
