2.12 Ignore ANC
2.2 AUDIO INPUT
2.3 AUDIO CHANNELS
Ki Pro Quad v5.2r3
This parameter need only be changed if the incoming signal supplied to the Ki Pro Quad
is misidentified. Misidentified signal formats can be caused by inaccurate ancillary (ANC)
data. Typically, the VPID (video payload identifier) information in ancillary (ANC) data
being supplied by the video source is accurate, but when it is not, this menu parameter
may be configured to ignore the inaccurate ancillary (ANC) data or VPID information. The
Ki Pro Quad will then rely solely on the 2.1 Video Input selection to determine the correct
video format.
OFF (default)
ON
This parameter selects an audio input source from the audio input connections available,
including embedded SDI audio (which requires an SDI video source) or analog audio (via
the XLR connections).
SDI (default)
XLR
NOTE:
XLR input could be microphone level or line level, depending on the connector panel switch
setting.
This parameter selects the use of either two or eight audio channels. Generally, when
working with camera sources, there are only one or two audio tracks being produced,
and therefore 2-channel would be the appropriate selection. In post production use,
there are often more channels of audio required, so 8-channel audio may be the
appropriate choice in such situations. Ki Pro Quad only allows for the selection of either 2
channels or 8 channels of audio to be written to the QuickTime file that is recorded.
Therefore, if the source has more than 2 channels of audio, but less than 8 channels of
audio that need to be preserved, the CONFIG Menu parameter 2.3 Audio Channels would
need to be set to "8 Channels. "
NOTE:
Not all devices support 8-channel audio. Ki Pro Quad does not provide a "mixdown" option
for 8- channel recordings on output, so be sure to use devices that support 8-channel audio
via SDI if the 8 channels recorded are desired.
NOTE:
If 8 Channels are selected for 2.3 Audio Channels, but 2.2 Audio Input is set to XLR, a Warning
prompt will appear on the display: "Warning 2 Channel Format." Clear this warning by
selecting SDI audio as the input source in 2.2 Audio Input or by selecting 2-channel audio in
2.3 Audio Channels.
2 Channels (default)
8 Channels
The Ki Pro Quad uses VPID to determine the incoming video
format.
The Ki Pro Quad ignores VPID and instead uses the Video Input
selection.
Selects SDI embedded audio from the SDI input connector (if
SDI video input is selected)
Selects the XLR input for audio input
Selects recording of 2 audio channels
Selects 8 audio channels (valid for SDI embedded audio only)
