Linear Acoustic AERO.mobile User Guide
Downmx Ls/Rs Level - Allows adjustment of Ls or Rs from 0dB to OFF for LoRo
mode only, default is -3dB.

Clock Source (Output Reference)

AES 1, AES 4, AES Reference, SDI or Internal 48kHz can be selected as the clock refer-
ence for the outputs. Note that if a selection is made for a source that is not applied, the
front panel Ref LED will be red, and the AERO.mobile will revert to internal 48kHz to
maintain audio. All inputs have sample rate converters so asynchronous audio can be ac-
cepted as long as the reference is set correctly.
4.4.7

Input Sources (Channels 1-8)

Selects audio source for each of the four input pairs to the processing engines. Each cor-
responding AES pair (i.e. AES 1/2 for Input 1/2) or any de-embedded pair from SDI can
be selected. Default is corresponding AES inputs for each pair.
4.4.8

SDI Embed

Selects whether to enable audio re-embedding or pass the SDI signal through the
AERO.mobile untouched. Note this does not affect de-embedding which is active at all
times.
WARNING: If SDI Embed is enabled, Clock Source should be set to SDI.
4.4.9

SDI Out Destination (Channels 1-16)

Selects source of audio for re-embedding into an applied SDI signal. Choices are Mute,
AES (i.e. the processor output pair), and any of the SDI pairs. This menu can also be used
as a router or pair shuffler within SDI. Default is AES Out 1/2 for SDI Out 1/2, AES 3/
4 for SDI Out 3/4, AES Out 5/6 for SDI Out 5/6, and AES Out 7/8 for SDI Out 7/8.
Remaining SDI outputs are source from their corresponding inputs (i.e. pass through).

4.4.10 Metadata Setup

The AERO.mobile has been designed to take best advantage of metadata. The incoming
Dolby or Dolby-compatible metadata stream is parsed on a program-by-program basis,
and the dialog loudness and audio coding mode (channel count) parameters are used to
scale processing and control upmixing respectively. Setup of metadata can be accom-
plished in the AERO Setup -> I/O menu.
AERO.mobile Metadata Setup Procedure:
Source: RS485/VANC- Selects between the RS-485 serial metadata input and meta-
