Monitor Mixer Page - M-Audio Delta 1010 Manual

controlled from within that program, such as master clock setting
and sample rate, so it is desireable to launch the music program
first, and then the Delta Control Panel from the the program's
"launch" or "control panel" button. Without the music program
open however, it is okay to open the Delta panel from your desktop
or other location.

Monitor Mixer Page

The Monitor Mixer is the first page that appears when the Delta Control Panel is
opened, and controls the digital mixer built into the Delta 1010's PCI controller
chip. As described in previous sections, the output of this mixer may be assigned
to the OUT1/OUT2 analog outputs and/or the S/PDIF Out digital output (this
selection is made in the Patchbay Router page). At the same time, the mixer
outputs may be recorded in stereo by software.
The Monitor Mixer Page is essentially a collection of volume level faders, audio
level (or 'peak') meters, and solo/mute controls. For each mixer output and input
channel there is one of each: a volume fader, a peak meter, a solo control, and a
mute control.
LEVEL FADERS: Each volume fader may be controlled by dragging the fader
'handle' vertically with the mouse, or by clicking on the 'handle' to make it
active and then adjusting it with the up/down cursor keys of your computer
keyboard. Because the mixer has no gain, these faders only attenuate (reduce)
the signal levels. The highest setting is 0dB, or 'Unity Gain.' The default fader
setting is the quietest setting, –144dB, which essentially mutes the audio. A pair
of level faders may be "ganged" so that both channels may be adjusted together
as a stereo pair.
