7.1 Universal Control
Since the control is bidirectional, fader moves and parameter
changes made on the StudioLive are reflected in VSL, as well.
So, for example, you can set up the StudioLive the way you
want it and then save your Scene or other presets in VSL.
As discussed in Section 6.4.2, VSL includes an auxiliary-inputs
router to allow you the freedom to choose which additional buses
to route to the eight stereo auxiliary FireWire sends. It also lets
you create a password for your StudioLive so that you can lock
out unauthorized users. (See Section 7.2.6 for details.) From the
Launcher window, you can set basic parameters such as buffer size
and sample rate. In addition, you can use the Launcher window
to configure your WDM outputs (PC only; see Section 6.4.4).
Note that the Meter Style and Meter Decay options
in the Launcher window are not active when only
a StudioLive is connected to a computer.

Universal Control: Launch Window
Sample Rate Selector
Changes StudioLive Sample Rate.
Set the sample rate to 44.1 or 48 kHz from the Launcher window when
your StudioLive is connected to a computer.
A higher sample rate will increase the fidelity of the
recording. It will also increase the file size and the amount
of system resources necessary to process the audio.
To ensure the safety of the audio equipment connected to it, the
StudioLive will mute all post-converter outputs for two seconds when
the sample rate is changed or when the mixer is connecting to a
computer. This includes the main and the control-room outputs, as well
as the aux and subgroup outputs. While this offers a good measure
of protection to your sound system, it could put the brakes on a live
show. Because of this, it very important that the sample rate be selected
and locked in prior to beginning any recording or performance.
Clock Source
Changes the Clock Source for Chained FireStudio-family Devices.
The StudioLive cannot slave to an external clock. However, if you are
cascading it with FireStudio-family products that do feature digital inputs,
the clock source becomes selectable.
The clock source setting will determine where the device chain is
receiving word-clock information. This keeps the chained devices
in sync with other digital devices and with each other. The menu
options are determined by the available digital inputs in the chain.
In general, you will want the StudioLive to be your Master
Clock, in which case set the clock to StudioLive-Internal.
