Changing The Sampling Rate/Clocking - Neumann.Berlin MT 48 Instruction Manual

Changing the sampling rate/clocking

To set the sampling rate for the MT 48, go to MENU → GENERAL → SAMPLING RATE
With AUTO setting activated, the MT 48 follows the sampling rate setting in your recording
software . Or if the MT 48 is in slave mode, it will automatically follow the master clock .
FRAME MODE | LATENCY sets the buffer size in a AES67/RAVENNA setup . Ignore this point if
you're not using any AES67 devices with your MT 48 .
Per default, the MT 48's sync source is its internal clock (INTERNAL) . To change the clock set-
tings, go to MENU → GENERAL and scroll down to CLOCK .
When set to RAVENNA/AES67 the MT 48 follows an external PTP Master .
Note: The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol used to synchronize clocks throughout a
computer network . Also known as IEEE 1588 or IEC 61588, it is a protocol designed to synchro-
nize real-time clocks in the nodes of a distributed system . PTP Clocks allow for time resolution
to the nanosecond .
When set to OPTICAL, the MT 48 follows the clock embedded in an ADAT or S/PDIF input sig-
nal .
Color indicators
BLUE indicates a sync source is available; WHITE means this source is unavailable .
GREEN indicates Sync is working; RED means Sync is impossible .
ASIO CLOCK is deactivated by default – this is not a mistake! This setting is only relevant to
AES67 setups, where the PTP master has to generate its clock according to the ASIO clock . In
setups without AES67 network devices, leave ASIO CLOCK deactivated .
