AUDIO TAB
The Audio tab (Figure 6-10) provides access to the
HD Express's audio features. The HD Express
provides 12 channels of audio input and 16
channels (two 8-channel banks) of simultaneous
audio output. For a summary of audio bank
formats, see "Connect audio inputs and outputs"
on page 19.
Sample rate
Choose the audio sample rate (Figure 6-10) for
capture or playback. Make sure this setting
matches the rate of the audio being captured or
played back. Sample rates up to 96 kHz are
supported, with the following restriction:
☛
The HDMI input and output are stereo at
sample rates above 48000 Hz when playing SD
video.

You can alternately make the sample rate setting in
Final Cut Pro.
Downmix to Output 1-2 on Capture
If Downmix to Output 1-2 on Capture is selected
(Figure 6-10), all audio inputs are mixed down to
outputs 1 and 2. This lets you monitor any/all input
channels while capturing. For example, you could
monitor S/PDIF input (channels 11-12) and/or
HDMI input (channels 3-10) on headphones (and
analog outs 1-2) while capturing in Final Cut Pro.
Analog input trims
Use the analog input trim controls (Figure 6-10) to
apply up to +18 dB of gain or -10 dB of cut to each
individual analog input.
