Port A or B operating as MASTER
Apply analogue audio source to local Mic IN on the console (alternatively connect dScope OUT)
Connect speaker to local Line OUT on Console (alternatively connect dScope IN)
Select CH1 routing on the console GUI:
Input set to analogue audio source port
Send set to Dante 1 port 1
Select CH1 routing on console GUI
Input set to Dante1 port 33
Send set to speaker port
At this point an audio path should now exist between the two analogue ports on the console. This will
be utilising both Dante Port A and B on the CDC MC Dante.
*Important Note: Where audio is routed from Port A to B this method is the only way the audio
loopback will work on the CDC MC Dante. You cannot connect between channels on the same
ports!!!!
