System Configurations
NOTE: This is only recommended when using the OASYS PCI as a stand-alone
synthesizer and/or effects processor. When using OASYS PCI in conjunction with
digital audio software, we recommend setting these parameters from within the
audio software instead, as described below.
Setting the word clock source in digital audio software
When using the OASYS PCI with ASIO-compatible digital audio programs (or
other programs which directly support the OASYS PCI), you should set the
sample rate and clock source within the audio program. This will ensure that the
audio program and the OASYS PCI agree on the current settings.
The OASYS PCI Editor's settings will reflect the clock and sample rate settings
made within the digital audio program.
For information on setting the clock source within a specific digital audio
program, please refer to the program's manual.
Using only the OASYS PCI's analog input and output
You can use the OASYS PCI via only the analog inputs and outputs, if you like,
without any digital connections. In this case, you should generally set the OASYS
PCI's word clock source to Internal.
Using the OASYS PCI with ADAT -compatible digital mixers
You can connect the OASYS PCI to an ADAT-compatible digital mixer in various
ways, depending on your other equipment and your personal preference.
Mixer as word clock master
The simplest way is to use the mixer as the word clock master. In this case:
1.
2.
3.
OASYS PCI as word clock master
In some cases, you may wish to use the OASYS PCI as the master clock. In this
case:
1.
2.
3.
External word clock generator as master
You may also wish to use a stand-alone word clock generator or SMPTE-to-digital
audio converter as the master. In this case:
34
Connect the OASYS PCI's ADAT optical input and output to the mixer.
Make sure that the mixer is set to use its internal clock.
Set the OASYS PCI's word clock source to ADAT.
Connect the OASYS PCI's ADAT optical input and output to the mixer.
Set the OASYS PCI's word clock source to Internal.
Set the mixer to use the OASYS PCI's ADAT output as the master clock.
