11. Configuring the MADIface
11.1 Settings Dialog
Configuration of the MADIface is done via its own settings dialog. The panel 'Settings' can be

The mixer of the MADIface (TotalMix) can be opened:

The hardware of the HDSPe system offers a number of helpful, well thought-of practical func-
tions and options which affect how the card operates - it can be configured to suit many differ-
ent requirements. The following is available in the 'Settings' dialog:
•
Configuration of digital I/Os
•
Synchronization behaviour
•
State of input and output
•
Current sample rate
•
Latency
Any changes made in the Settings dialog are applied immediately - confirmation (e.g. by click-
ing on OK or exiting the dialog) is not required. However, settings should not be changed during
playback or record if it can be avoided, as this can cause unwanted noises. Also, please note
that even in 'Stop' mode, several programs keep the recording and playback devices open,
which means that any new settings might not be applied immediately.
The status displays at the bottom of the dialog box give the user precise information about the
current status of the system, and the status of all digital signals.
