Port Options
The port configuration area of each port (A-D) contains two control sections: Input Routing
and
Input Sens:

•
Tick the Direct
processing by your computer. This function is intended for analog mixing, where you
may want the incoming signal (e.g., when mixing in records from a turntable) to
be sent directly from the port's input to the port's output channels. Note: When
using the soundcard for analog mixing in stand-alone mode (without a computer),
Direct Thru has to be activated. See the Temporary and Default Settings subsection
below for instructions on how to configure the soundcard's behavior on initial start up.
•
Deactivate the
timecode CDs). The signal has to be sent through your computer for the timecode
data to be processed by your DJ software.
•
Input Sens:
•
Select Phono for when connecting a turntable to the port (no matter if digital mixing
with timecode vinyl or analog mixing with records; both need phono amplification).
•
Select Line for when connecting a CD deck to the port (or other line level equipment
such as a synthesizer, an MP3 player, a tapedeck, etc.).
Each port A through D may be used by one of the following devices: a turntable with ana-
log records, a turntable with timecode vinyl, a CD deck, a CD with a timecode disc, or any
other line device.
By default, the soundcard is set to Phono
