Outputs (Wave Play 1/2, 3/4, Digital Play)
Here you can adjust the volume of the output signals, provided you have selected “
Digital Mixer” as the input signal in your routing. All other signals are sent straight
to the output, bypassing the faders. As with the input, a separate fader is available
for each mono channel. The individual channels can be joined using the switchable
stereo link function. A “Mute” button can be used to mute the playback. If two mono
channels are linked, clicking the mute button for the stereo pair is suffi cient.

The overall playback level can be set with the Master control of the digital mixer.
Master Clock
Here we’re dealing with the sample rate used by the UF400e. This is a very
important point, as the Board can be clocked by an external signal (External, e.g.
from a DAT recorder) or it can set a sample rate itself and provide this signal to other
devices.
When choosing “Internal”, you can choose from all commonly used sample rates
from 32 to 192 kHz—the actual bit rate is not important at this point. The external
sample rate, when applicable, is displayed in the box next to “External”. If no signal
is available or the connection has been interrupted, the message “--------” will be
Note:
If you are working with common audio/MIDI sequencers,
you should also use this software for volume control. The
advantage: the settings are usually saved together with your
project (song, arrangement etc.).
Note:
Unlike PCI Boards, the UF400e cannot automatically
synchronize the required sample rate. Select the sample rate
manually using the dropdown menu in the Control Panel to avoid
a sample rate conversion and attendant loss of quality.
