The MasterControl contains a hardware-based, DSP mixer which enables you to route the inputs to the
outputs directly, bypassing any latencies associated with sending the audio to and from the computer.
This hardware-based routing provides the minimum possible latency - only the time required for audio to
be converted between analog and digital formats and then back again to analog. This time is essentially
■ Configuring the GLOBAL menus_
In the Global menus, choose whether you want to hear the direct signal via the MasterControl's MON /
LINE OUTPUT pairs 1/2, 3/4, and/or 5/6.
■ Creating a Direct Monitoring Mix
Press the DIRECT MONITOR button on the left side of the MasterControl. The button will light, and the
faders will snap to their Direct Monitoring positions. Press the BANK LEFT (<) and BANK RIGHT (>)
■ Special Considerations at Double- and Quad-Speed Sample Ra
At dual rates - 88.2kHz and 96kHz - the first optical port's inputs are
halved, from eight ADAT channels to four channels. The second
optical port only operates as an optical S/PDIF input at these rates;
ADAT is disabled. To avoid hearing glitches in the input audio
caused by data mismatches, disconnect any ADAT devices from the
second optical port at 88.2kHz and 96kHz.
