Options
EQ+D for Record
Switches EQ and Dynamics of all input channels into the recording path. In case Loopback has
been activated the EQ and Dynamics of the Output channel are within the recording path. See
also chapter 27.5.
Word Clock In Term.
Checking this option terminates the
word input internally with 75 Ohms.
TMS
TMS activates the transmission of
Channel Status data and Track
Marker information from the AES
and MADI input signal.
Redundancy Mode
With redundancy mode active the
number of input channels is reduced
to 66 (AES plus 1 MADI). The two
other MADI ports serve as fail safe
inputs, used as soon as the signal
on the 'Current MADI Input' fails.
This setting is also a perfect choice if
the card is used as single MADI I/O,
saving resources and providing
simpler channel selection dialogs.
Mirror MADI1 Output to MADI2/3
This option provides a quick and
simple solution to mirror the first
MADI output to outputs 2 and 3. The
outputs are reduced to 2+4+64
channels (AES, 2 x analog, one
MADI port). All the data routed and
mixed to MADI port 1 is sent to
MADI port 2/3 as well.
Isochronous Streaming (USB 3 only)
The XT uses a special transmission mode with error correction to record data. In case the XT’s
default mode does not work Isochronous Streaming can be tried. This is the standard’s native
mode for audio transmission and should work with any USB 3 controller. See also chapter 30.4.
WDM Devices (USB 2/3)
Reduce the number of WDM devices to the ones really needed to improve performance. See
chapter 7.2.
Input Status
Displays the state of the current input signal:
• Clock state (No Lock, Lock, Sync)
• Sample rate (coarse)
• MADI Frame format (48K or 96K)
• Channel format (64 or 56 channels)
Sync Check
RME’s exclusive SyncCheck technology provides an easy to use check and display of the cur-
rent clock status. The clock state column indicates whether no signal (No Lock), a valid signal
(Lock) or a valid and synchronous signal (Sync) is present at each of the digital inputs.
