Software Audio Analyser - RME Audio ADI-96 PRO User Manual

11.3 Software Audio Analyser

Function
Visualization of the audio signal according to level and frequency.
Application
Connect the COM-port of your Windows PC and the RS-232 interface of the ADI-96 PRO
using the supplied D-type 9-pin cable. Use Boot other function at the ADI-96 PRO to boot
the DSP software Audio Analyser. Another way is to start the Windows software adipro.exe
and choose Boot other function/Audio Analyser in the Options menu of the software. Don't for-
get to check the currently used port of the PC (COM1/COM2).
Operation/Settings
The visualisation on the screen is not mainly set by the ADI-96 PRO, but by the Windows
software. That's why only some parameters are directly configurable at the device. After start-
ing the software use F2 or the right mouse key to open the window Analyser Settings. Here all
parameters can be adjusted in a convenient way. The guidelines of using Remote Control (see
chapter 9.9) are the same for this software.
Analyser Settings
The window Analyser Settings includes four function areas:
INPUT
Choice of input (Mic, Mic phantom powered, Line) per channel, invert phase (180°) per chan-
nel, activation of M/S processing. See chapter 7.1.
SPECTRUM ANALYSER
Holds all parameters controlling the display of the audio signal in the analyser window. Addi-
tional the display modes are set. See chapter 10.4.
LEVEL M.
Activation of display and configuration of the the RMS/Peak Level meter: Peak Hold Time 0.1 s
to 9.9 s, Release 1 dB/s to 100 dB/s
OUTPUT
Configuration of the signal at the digital output: Sample frequency, word length, Dither, word
clock and Channel Status. See chapter 7.2.
Storing / Loading / Editing of Setups
The software allows to store, load and edit setups from and to the PC's storage media. No set-
ups will be stored to or loaded from the ADI-96 PRO.
