Standalone Routing

When audio interface mode is set to Standalone, only one routing tab (called the Standalone Routing tab window,
unsurprisingly) is displayed. The Standalone Routing tab window determines how hardware inputs (on installed I/O Modules)
are routed to hardware outputs. In Standalone mode, the PC-32 audio streams (to and from a Symphony 64 card) are not
active, and thus don't appear on the grid. If multiple Symphony I/O in Standalone audio interface mode are detected, a
separate Standalone Routing grid is displayed for each interface.
1. Hardware Output Row - The hardware analog and digital outputs of the
Symphony I/O are displayed in this row.
2. Hardware Input Column - The hardware analog and digital inputs of the
Symphony I/O are displayed in this row.
Audio connections between hardware inputs and outputs are made by positioning markers on the routing grid at the
intersection of the desired hardware input and output. By default, analog inputs are routed sequentially to digital outputs and
digital inputs are routed to analog outputs, the desired routing to use Symphony I/O as a standalone A-to-D and D-to-A
converter. Similar to the Input and Output Routing grids (Symphony audio interface mode) marker movement is restricted
based on the routing capability of the system. One hardware input may be assigned to multiple hardware outputs (in effect
splitting the signal) but multiple hardware inputs may not be assigned to one hardware output (an operation which would
require the summing of input signals). Each marker's range of motion is indicated by the vertical shading on the routing grid,
as depicted above by arrows on the Standalone routing grid.
