5.2 Quick Start
After the driver installation (chapter 6 / 13) connect the TRS jacks or the XLR inputs with the
analog signal source. The input sensitivity of the rear inputs can be changed in TotalMix (Input
Channel Settings, LoGain / +4 dBu and Gain), assuring the highest signal to noise ratio will be
achieved. Also try to achieve an optimum input level by adjusting the source itself. Raise the
source’s output level until the peak level meters in TotalMix reach about –3 dB.
The signal level of the front inputs can also be optimized directly at the
Fireface. The key MIC/GAIN gives direct access to this setting, which is
then controlled by the encoders 1 and 2. A two-colour LED beside the
sockets signals overload by a colour change from green to red.
The digital outputs of the Fireface UFX+ provide AES/EBU (SPDIF
compatible) and ADAT optical signals at the corresponding ports.
On the analog playback side (the DA side), a coarse adjustment of the
analog output level at the rear jacks is again available in TotalMix
(Output Channel Settings, Level), or the Channel Settings directly at
the device. The big Volume encoder controls the Main Out volume
(default: Analog 1/2).
The output signal of channels 9/10 and 11/12, Phones 1 and 2, can be
controlled directly from front by the small encoders 1 and 2.
The Fireface UFX+ can store and load its current state in 6 different
memory slots, called Setups. With this, the Fireface UFX+ can be
used stand-alone after setting it up accordingly, replacing lots of
dedicated devices (see chapter 24).
In online mode some settings are greyed out, as these should be changed only at the computer,
in the Settings dialog or in TotalMix FX. These include the choice of sample rate and the mix
settings.
The factory setting for the Interface Mode, Auto, makes sure that any
connected computer connection is recognized automatically.
Thunderbolt, USB 3, USB 2 and Class Compliant will usually work
without any further user interaction. In case of problems the current
interface mode can be set manually to a fixed one. This is done under
SETUP/REV, Options, Hardware/Diagnosis, Interface Mode.
