ANTEX MIXER
The ANTEX Mixer allows you to control the volume of the inputs and outputs on the ANTEX digital audio
cards. The Mixer is also the way you route audio sources to either the record bus, for recording to hard
disk, or to the play bus, which diverts signals to the line outputs.
Features of the Antex Mixer include:
SLIDE CONTROLS for adjusting input or output volume levels on all active components and the master
volume control. With your mouse, drag the slide control bar up to increase the volume level, and drag
the slide control bar down to reduce the volume level.
BUTTONS that toggle for recording or playing on the individual devices available. Clicking on the
REC/PLAY button lets you select the destination for each input device.
SOUND LEVEL METERS to show input or output levels when recording or playing in digital audio or
Wave audio.
MIXER BUSES
Each mixer input may be routed to either the record or play bus by toggling the bus button directly above
each pair of input sliders.
RECORD MODE
The record bus is a composite mix of all audio inputs with their REC buttons pressed. This mix is routed
to the A/D converter and digitized for recording to hard disk. You can then minimize the ANTEX Mixer
and use the Antex Demo, Microsoft Sound Recorder, etc. to record.
Note:
You will not hear any audio until the recording has started. For instance, pressing the REC button
in the Antex Demo.
