DANGEROUS MUSIC
2. USB AUTO DETECT
[AUTOMATIC USB SAMPLE RATE DETECTION PICTURED ABOVE ON THE LEFT (192 LED WOULD BE BLINKING IF THIS WERE A VIDEO). OFF MODE PICTURED ON THE RIGHT.]
Feature: Automatic USB Sample Rate Detection
Benefit: Open a session and the sample rate will be selected automatically. This is especially useful when the CONVERT-AD+ is
part of an aggregate device group with CONVERT-2 or CONVERT-8 D/As, thus allowing users to create a system that will
function like a singular, virtual interface.
Operation:
ON
- The selected sample rate LED will blink slowly, the other LEDs will all light solid, and sample rate selection from the
front panel will be locked out.
OFF-
The selected sample rate LED only will remain lit. Sample rate selection changes can be executed from the front
panel manually.
Note: By default, the CONVERT-AD+ ships with this feature ON. To turn this feature OFF: press and hold the sample rate
SELECT button for three seconds. To re-enable the automatic mode, plug in a valid USB connection to CoreAudio (Mac)
or ASIO (Windows) and hold the sample rate SELECT button for three seconds.
Note: This mode is only available in internal word clock mode (i.e. WORD CLOCK button is dimly lit). This mode will be
overidden if the CONVERT-AD+ is clocked from the word clock input (brightly lit WORD CLOCK button) or used as the
word clock master (blinking WORD CLOCK button).
Tip:
,
In Internal Wordclock Mode (WORD CLOCK button dimly lit), the CONVERT-AD+ will generate and output word clock
signal. This means it can be used as the word clock master while in the USB Auto Mode. Thus all devices connected to
the word clock port or clocked from the digital output(s) can follow software prompted sample rate changes.
3. CALIBRATION
[CALIBRATION SELECT SECTION PICTURED ABOVE]
Feature: Selectable Calibration Level via the Select Switch
.
Benefit: Cycle through the three calibration levels for compatibility with other devices. For example, while Avid is generally -18dBFS,
