3.3 | DAW and TM3-Primus
With the USB audio interface of TM3-Primus, audio data streams can
directly be used and displayed from a digital audio workstation (DAW)
without conversion.
Input Routing
Inside a DAW always use channel pair “1 + 2”, if you have selected USB
audio 2.0 (Stereo) as input domain.
If you want to use USB audio 5.1 (Surround) as input domain, create a
new surround bus and route channel pairs “1 + 2”, “3 + 4” and “5 + 6”
to this bus. Please note the correct panning and channel layout on your
DAW as well as on TM3-Primus.
Output Routing
DAWs support only one input/output interface at a time. Therefore no
audio will be output when TM3-Primus is used in USB mode.
However, if you want to monitor signals during USB mode, activate the
Monitoring instrument of TM3-Primus (details see chapters
3.5 | Select
Instruments
and
4.10 | Monitoring
). Then, a 2-channel stereo downmix
can be output via S/PDIF output connector and be used for monitoring.
By default, the signal is looped through (Unity Gain), and the position of
the onscreen fader is set to 0 dB on the instrument’s scale. The fader can
be used to adjust the output volume to individual needs.
