This section provides brief, step-by-step instructions for the major
functions of the 1212 I/O. Many of these can be performed using the
simple 1212 I/O Utility program. Digital audio software written for use
with the 1212 I/O should allow you to access to all of the parameters
provided in the Utility program, so these tricks should work in those
programs as well.
All of the following instructions assume that you've followed this single,
very important step:
1.
This is necessary for almost any operation using the 1212 I/O.
Auto-Routing Mode
The 1212 I/O Utility can be used for routing audio directly from the card's
inputs to the card's outputs. For instance, you can route ADAT channels
through the card for doing dubs between ADATs, you can route ADAT
inputs to S/PDIF outputs (or vice versa), and so on.
Even when the 1212 I/O Utility isn't active, however, the 1212 I/O will
route audio from input to output whenever it is not otherwise in use; this is
called the Auto-Routing Mode. On startup, the 1212 I/O will load a setup
from the 1212 I/O Preferences file. By default, this routes each input to the
same output, with internal clock source, 48kHz sample rate, and analog
input trims all the way up.
You can change these preferences by using the 1212 I/O Utility's "Save As
Defaults..." command, as described on page 29.
When the 1212 I/O is being used by a 1212 I/O-compatible digital audio
application (such as Deck II or Cubase VST), the Auto-Routing Mode will
be disabled. 1212 I/O-compatible applications can use the routing for their
own purposes, including record monitoring.
When you quit the application, the Auto-Routing Mode will be restored.
On MacOS computers, with some Sound Manager applications, the
enabling and disabling of the Auto-Routing Mode works slightly
differently. These Sound Manager applications use the card only when
actually playing a sound; when the sound stops, the Sound Manager will
"quit" the 1212 I/O. At this point, the 1212 I/O will go into Auto-Routing
Mode.

Enable Digital In on the ADAT system, and enable digital I/O for
any connected S/PDIF devices. If you are using an Alesis BRC, set
the digital I/O source and destination to ADAT.
