4.5 Examples of usage (Playback)
MUSIC PLAYBACK IN STEREO
When the DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE is used as Power-
Mate input, the channels USB 1 and USB 2 or USB 3 and
USB 4 are assigned to a stereo input each, refer to the
following table:
The PowerMate functions as an external sound card of
the PC/Mac. In the system settings of your PC/Mac, se-
lect the PowerMate (DYNACORD USB-AUDIO) as the play-
back device. Audio signals are output from the PC/Mac
through input channels USB 1-2 of the PowerMate. You
can use the USB GAIN control to adjust the level and the
fader to control the volume, like it is explained in detail in
the Input Stereo section on page 12.
D
UAL STEREO PLAYBACK (DJ APPLICATION)
All common DJ applications can address the two stereo
USB channels (USB 1-2 and USB 3-4) via ASIO driver.
ASIO is a standard, which has been established in almost
all applications of multi-channel sound interfaces. The
ASIO driver was automatically installed together with in-
stalling the device driver, as described on page 33. For
assigning the sends to the playback channels of the Pow-
erMate, please mind the documentation of the software
program that you are using. The consistent 4-channel de-
sign of the DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE allows to pre-
listen the signal of the USB channels 3-4 via headphones
using the PFL button, while the current song is output
e. g. via USB channels 1-2. This facilitates determining
the fade-in point of the next song. A setup consisting of
PC/Mac, PowerMate and loudspeaker systems is all you
need as a DJ to entertain your audience.
P
LAY USB TO 2TRACK FUNCTION
Playback of background music or interludes with ac-
tivated STANDBY mode is possible, using a CD/MP3 Play-
er connected to the 2TRACK IN L/R jacks of the
PowerMate or a PC/Mac connected to the DIGITAL AU-
DIO INTERFACE.
By default, the STANDBY switch also mutes the USB ste-
reo channels. Therefore, audio signals played back on the
PC/Mac via USB 1-2 need to be routed (bypassing the
STANDBY switch) to the 2TRACK IN control. This function
has to be activated under the menu item Play USB to
2TRACK of the Device Setup Menu (see also page 31).
Canceling the STANDBY mode automatically deactivates
the bypass switching. This prevents sound distortion or
deterioration, which could occur when the USB signal is
simultaneously fed to the master via stereo fader and
2TRACK IN control.
HINT: Keep in mind that the 2TRACK IN level is inde-
pendent of the fader setting of the USB 1-2
channel.
An additional prompt for confirmation prevents that play-
back is inadvertently enabled when activating the
STANDBY mode. After pressing the STANDBY switch, the
display prompts you for a few seconds whether Play USB
to 2TRACK shall be activated. Press the MENU/ENTER
rotary encoder to confirm the prompt. The Play USB to
2TRACK function is automatically deactivated upon
canceling the STANDBY mode.
4.6 Examples of usage (Recording)
In the following applications, your PC/Mac is used for
recording while the PowerMate functions as premium A/
D converter, without the need for an external sound card.
The USB Record Routing Dialog (see also page 29) allows
choosing between the Live or Studio recording configura-
tion.
L
IVE: LIVE-RECORDING OF EVENTS
In Live mode, the mixer master signal is transmitted to
the PC on USB channels 1-2 of the DIGITAL AUDIO INTER-
FACE. This is the basic setting for a live recording of your
event.
If the AUX ways are not yet reserved or occupied for mo-
nitoring, effect applications or other purposes, you can
use them instead to record two additional signals, which
