Selecting your Audio Source
After plugging in your audio equipment to Blackmagic Audio Monitor, all you need to do is
select your connection by pressing the INPUT button on the control panel. When your input is
selected and audio is present, you’ll notice the audio level meter LEDs illuminated. The audio
level meter consists of 2 rows of colored LEDs and are brightly lit so you can easily confirm your
audio input is working.
The INPUT button lets you cycle through your audio connections and you can see them on the
color LCD with information including input type, audio channels and volume level. That’s all you
need to do to monitor audio with Blackmagic Audio Monitor.
Connecting Video Outputs
If you need video as well as audio monitoring, Blackmagic Audio Monitor’s video outputs let
you monitor video with audio on a large screen, or connect to more video equipment.
The HDMI output and SDI loop output can be used to monitor video and embedded audio.
You can connect to SD, HD, 2K and even Ultra HD capture devices such as DeckLink 4K
Extreme with a single SDI cable. Connect video with embedded audio to recording decks such
as HyperDeck Studio via SD/HD-SDI or the latest Ultra HD display and projectors via HDMI.
The selection buttons allow you to choose which input you wish to monitor, isolate left and right stereo
channels, move up or down through available audio channels, and mute the speakers or headphones.
