SuperRack SoundGrid / User Guide
69
There are three Patch Views:
Device-to-Device Patching
Patches between assigned I/O devices in the SoundGrid network.
Latency Groups
Assigns racks to latency groups. It provides an overview of all assignments and allows you to make
latency group assignments to several racks at once.
Link Groups
Assigns racks to link groups. It provides an overview of all assignments and allows you to make link
group assignments to several racks at once.
Patching Frameworks
When you select a Patching View, the frame around the Patch Grid changes to provide the connections necessary
for the type of patch selected. The Patching Framework displays the specific I/O devices and their channels, racks,
link groups, or delay groups.
1–Device-to-Device
The Device-to-Device frame displays the same I/O
device information on both axes.
Certain patches are not possible (e.g., a device cannot patch to itself). Should you attempt to create a patch that is
not possible, you will see this prompt:
I/O Device Select Click on a device icon to display or hide its channels on the
framework. This makes for a tidier patch view.
Device name
Channel format: digital, analog
Connector: mic, line, phones, AES, S/DIF, ADAT, Core Audio, etc.
I/O Channel number A number indicates a mono channel; L or R indicates stereo.
