96 I/O Overview
96 I/O Front Panel
The 96 I/O has the following front panel
features:
Power Switch and LED Ring
This button turns the 96 I/O on and off.
The LED ring around the power button will light
green to indicate that the unit has powered up
successfully and is connected to an active HD
system. If the LED ring is orange, the unit has
power, but the computer it is connected to is
shut down.
Sample Rate
These LEDs display the current sample rate of
the 96 I/O internal crystal oscillator, which can
be 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, and 96 kHz. The
sample rate can be set when you create a new
session, or in the Hardware Setup or Playback
Engine dialogs if no session is open.
Loop Master LED
The LOOP MASTER LED indicates which HD au-
dio interface is the master Pro Tools peripheral.
Loop Master defaults to the first HD I/O con-
nected to the HD Core card. Loop Master will al-
ways be lit with a single interface, regardless of
the synchronization mode.
