  • Page 4: Maintenance: Dust Guards

    Clocking in General The Live console has a very high quality internal clock that can be used to clock an entire system with multiple Live consoles and stageboxes connected, so no external clock source is needed unless a specific application requires it.
  • Page 5: Clocking Via A Blacklight Ii Concentrator

    SSL Live Help System. Dante uses its own “Clock Election” process to determine the most appropriate Leader Clock for the Dante network and a Leader Clock will be chosen automatically. For more information on the Dante Clock Election process please see the Audinate website: dev.audinate.com/GA/dante-controller/userguide/webhelp/#clock_synchronization.htm...
  • Page 6: Setting Up The Console As A Master Of The Dante Network

    Setting the Sample Rate The Live system can run at 96 kHz (recommended) or 48 kHz sample rates. Use the 96 kHz and 48 kHz buttons in the System page (MENU > Setup > SYSTEM) to change the console's sample rate.
  • Page 7: Clocking Madi Stageboxes

    AES/EBU Connections All AES/EBU connections on the Live console's local I/O and D32.32 stageboxes have sample rate converters (SRC's) available. These are enabled via the console's local/MADI I/O menu (MENU > Setup > I/O > Local/MADI Configuration).
  • Page 8 SSL Live Installation Information For inputs, you will be presented with a single SRC In button to the right middle of the screen for the selected port. The console supports the input rates listed in the Input fs column in the table below and will convert the incoming audio to 96 kHz (or 48 kHz).
  • Page 9 This is useful if the external device has issues clocking to an external clock. This setting will allow the external device to use its internal clock, with the Live console's AES SRC locked to the external device, allowing the device to clock itself thus avoiding clocking errors.

    The switch is located on the rear of the PSU next to the AC power switch. SSL Live consoles always ship with this mode disabled (Off) so that the fan is permanently running, however because of the low-noise nature of the fan, under low loads it is unlikely to be heard and so it is the choice of individual users whether this is enabled or not.
