Monitoring
New, more flexible input signal monitoring is now available via ASIO driver support.
Monitoring > Input monitoring on/off
This function activates/deactivates the input monitoring (corresponds with “Rec M”
button on the transport control). When actively monitoring, the input signal of the
tracks for active monitoring (loudspeaker button in the VIP or mixer is activated) are
played according to the selected monitoring type at the output. Furthermore, the LED
peak meters in the VIP and mixers react according to the input signal.
Note: If the "Rec" button is activated on a track, then the loudspeaker button is
activated simultaneously in order to switch on monitoring.
Monitoring > Tape player monitoring
The preset method for monitoring, similar to tape players and familiar from earlier
versions of Samplitude Music Studio 2013:
When "Stop" is displayed, the input signal is rendered, "Play" renders the track
contents, "Record" renders the input signal. If the option is deactivated, the user has
to choose whether the input signal is shown or not. Use the "Force monitoring" button
(small loudspeaker symbol beside/above the peak meter in the VIP/mixer).
No audio monitoring (only peakmeter)
This corresponds with the normal characteristic of the VIP: The peak meter of the
tracks displays the level at the sound card input.
Monitoring > Software monitoring / Software FX monitoring
Software monitoring for cards with ASIO drivers is also possible if the card does not
support hardware monitoring (ASIO direct monitoring).
Software FX monitoring also calculates the track effects into the monitoring signal
with the exception of all high latency-affected FX inserts. The amp simulator,
however, is applicable. Samplitude Music Studio 2013 can therefore also be used as
an effects device to play live directly.
If you need all of the mixer effects, then use the conventional live input mode
(functions without ASIO, but is afflicted with higher latencies).
Furthermore, software or software FX monitoring must be active to be able to play
VST instruments live using the "MIDI in" port.
