Auricon 2.2+ Manual
Configuration
There are four configuration settings for the Auricon 2.2+, these being stereo/mono mode,
nominal line level, input topology and input coupling.
The
mode
may be configured as either stereo or mono. In mono mode the number of input and
output channels that Windows sees is doubled.
The nominal
line level
can be set to +8dBu, +4dBu or 0dBu. In each case the clipping level is
16dB above the nominal level.
The
input topology
can be configured as either a mixer or a selector. With
mixer
topology, any
or all of the physical inputs can be mixed down into any of the wave input streams, whereas
with
selector
topology only one physical input can be selected for each wave input stream.
Note:
The input topology is always set to
selector
under Windows 8, 7, Vista and Server 2012,
2008-R2 and 2008, as these platforms do not support input mixing.
The
input coupling
can be set to either DC or AC (the default is AC). The AC coupling corner
frequency is approximately 0.1Hz. Note this is applied after the A/D converters, so a differential
DC offset on the inputs can cause premature clipping.
To change the configuration, right-click on the
My Computer
icon on the desktop (or in the Start
menu in the case of XP, Server 2003, Vista, Server 2008 and 7), select
Properties
, then click
on
Device Manager
. On Windows 8 and Server 2012, open the
Control Panel
, go to
System
and Security
and then
System
, and open
Device Manager
from the link in the left hand pane.
Open
Sound, video and game controllers
, then right-click on
Auricon 2.2+
and select
Properties
. Now click on the
Configuration
tab and select the desired mode, line level and/or
topology. Under Windows 2000, XP and Server 2003 it may take a minute or so for Windows to
reconfigure itself and the screen may flicker during this time. Be patient!
