Clock Mode

Sample Rate

Sets the currently used sample rate. Offers a central and comfortable way of configuring the

sample rate of all WDM devices to the same value, as since Vista this is no longer supported to

be done by the audio program. However, an ASIO program can still set the sample rate by it-

self.

At ongoing record/playback the selection is greyed out, so no change is possible.

Clock Source

The unit can be configured to use

its own clock (Internal = Master), or

one of the input signals (Word,

ADAT, SPDIF, TCO). If the selected

source isn't available, the unit will

change to the next available one

(AutoSync). If none is available

then the internal clock is used. The

current clock source is displayed to

the right.

Pitch

More information on Pitch is

available in chapter 7.3.

Input Status

Indicates for each input (Word,

SPDIF, ADAT 1/2, TCO) whether

there is a valid signal (Lock, No

Lock), or if there is a valid and

synchronous signal (Sync). The

second row shows the SPDIF sam-

ple rate measured by the hardware.

In Clock Mode the clock reference

is shown (Current…). See also

chapter 30.1.
