Working With Host Audio Software - MOTU UltraLite AVB User Manual

Specifying the number of computer channels
In the web app Device tab (page 13), in the
Computer Setup section, specify the number of
computer channels for streaming audio to and
from your host audio software. You might want
enough channels to cover the following:
Physical inputs you want to record on your
■
computer.
The physical outputs you want to send audio
■
playback to.
Any audio streams going to and from the
■
on-board mixer in your MOTU device.
Any audio streams going to and from the AVB
■
network, if you have multiple networked MOTU
AVB devices.

If you aren't sure how many channels you'll need,
visit the Routing tab, as explained below.
Making inputs and outputs available to your
host software
In the web app, use the Routing tab (page 14) to
map inputs and outputs to computer channels, as
demonstrated in Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2.
Configuration presets
The presets menu (item #7 in the Devices tab on
page 12) provides many useful presets for various
host routing scenarios. These presets are a
convenient shortcut for the routing grid setups
discussed in the next few sections.
