CLARITY M/CLARITY M STEREO User Manual
Take Over
Take over on focus - When this is selected, a newly-created instance of the
plug-in within a DAW project will automatically be connected to the hardware
unit. Otherwise, an instance of the plug-in that was already active will take
priority and remain connected.
Take over on insert - When selected, this allows any instance of the plug-in that is
currently in focus to be automatically connected to the hardware unit.
Sample Rate
The Clarity M supports 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz sample rate, both with the
digital inputs as well as plug-in metering. However, when monitoring surround
sound material with the physical inputs, sample rates are limited to 44.1
and 48 kHz.
Offline Plug-in Mode
By importing your track into the DAW of your choice, you can get a quick overview
of the levels without letting the entire track play in real time.
Offline bouncing/rendering/processing is different with each DAW. Pro Tools
has a dedicated Audio Suite menu, and if you use Logic Pro X, Selection-Based
Processing can be used. With other DAWs, the Clarity M plug-in will need to be
inserted on a track and then that track can be bounced. Consult the manual of
your DAW for further instructions on how to make offline processing in that DAW.
When Clarity M goes into offline mode, a pre-set fixed screen layout will be
displayed. Only metering types that are relevant for offline mode will be shown,
so no real time meters will appear. The offline mode screen layout can not be
altered by the user.
Once the offline measuring has finished, the result is displayed on the screen.
To reset and exit offline mode, press Reset. Upon exiting offline mode, the screen
layout will revert back to the configuration prior to entering offline mode.
