Sample rate settings are made via the Dante Controller and MUST be mimicked via the dip switches
on the CDC MC Dante’s front panel.
ALL ports on a given Dante Network must be configured to the same sample rate via the Dante
Controller. This applies even if
you
are operating at 48 kHz and only connected to the left hand port.
