DANTE SECONDARY INFO
This submenu displays additional information about the SECONDARY Dante connection.
DANTE INPUT CHANNEL NAMES
This submenu displays the names given to the VENU360-D’s Dante input channels.
DANTE INPUT CHANNEL STATUS
This submenu displays the status for the VENU360-D’s Dante input channels.
DANTE OUTPUT CHANNEL NAMES
This submenu displays the names given to the VENU360-D’s Dante output channels.
NOTE:
Dante settings cannot be edited in the VENU360-D submenus. These settings must be edited using
Audinate’s Dante Controller software which is available on Audinate’s website.

ANALOG INPUT/OUTPUT CLIP LEVELS
[INPUTS: +14, +20, +24, +28 dBu / OUTPUTS: +4, +8, +12, +14, +17, +20,
+22 dBu]
Adjust these settings to optimize the analog gain structure between the VENU360 and the connected mixer and
amplifiers or powered speakers. This provides optimal analog signal-to-noise performance and device operation. For
example, if your mixer outputs a maximum level of 28 dBu, you can set the VENU360’s Analog Input Clip Levels to +28
dBu to match. Conversely, if you had your amplifier attenuators maxed out, you could set the Analog Output Clip Levels
to 4 dBu to attenuate the analog output levels and prevent the amplifier from clipping.
WARNING!
The Analog Output Clip Levels will be set for you automatically when selecting your amp models
in the Setup Wizard. To prevent amplifier clipping and loudspeaker damage, use caution when manually changing
these settings. If changing the Analog Output Clip Level settings, it’s advisable to drastically lower your mixer output
level before doing so and then recalibrate the gain structure and Limiter threshold’s before running the system at
performance level.

XLR INPUT FORMAT
[XLR 1/XLR 2 FORMAT: ANALOG, AES 1&2/AES 3&4, SAMPLE RATE CONVERSION: OFF,
ON]
This menu allows you to set the input format for the XLR 1 and XLR 2 input jacks. Each jack can be configured for
analog or digital AES connections. Note that 110 ohm balanced cable should be used for AES connections.
When the AES format is selected, sample rate conversion for each XLR jack can also be independently enabled/
disabled in this menu. This allows the VENU360 to accommodate connections from multiple clocks or devices operating
at sample rates other than 48 or 96 kHz. See
‘Configuring Inputs, Master Clock Source, & SRC’ on page 20
for further information on clocking and using sample rate conversion.
•
CLOCK SOURCE
[INTERNAL 48 kHz, INTERNAL 96 kHZ, AES 1&2, AES 3&4, BLU LINK (VENU360-B model only),
DANTE (VENU360-D model only)]
Selects which clock the VENU360 will sync to and the sample rate of the internal clock. See
Master Clock Source, & SRC’ on page 20
for further information on clocking.
