Level Sets input gain level for an audio channel. At -96dB, the signal is completely muted.
You can mouse over the level setting to see the available range. The range is always -96 to
12dB and can be set in 0.5 dB steps. By default no gain level is applied (0 dB).
This setting has no effect on a non-PCM audio channel except if this level is set to -96dB
(signal is muted).
This feature requires the
XIP - 3901 - UDC - AUD option. See Options Panel , on page 166 for
details about how to activate card options.
Delay You can delay or advance audio from the nominal value, in order to deal with problems
such as lip-sync errors and audio phase alignment in the incoming feed.
You can delay of up to 500 ms in steps of 1ms. To advance audio, you need first to delay
the video. Video can be delayed up to 6 fields/frames. As an example, if you delay
1920x1080p59Hz output by 2 frames, you can advance the audio by up to 66ms.
At any time you can mouse over this field to see the current available fixed delay range. By
default no fixed delay is applied (0ms).
A fixed delay can still be used with non-PCM signals, but you must use the same delay
values for the left and right channels to preserve signals such as Dolby E.
This feature requires the
