6.1 Meter Page
This is the first page that the Aurora
(n)
will display upon start up. On the Left side of the meters, operational
specifics are displayed:

The current Sample Rate.
 The current Sync Source.
 The SynchroLock Status (if Sync Source is not Internal) or the SD card dropout
counter (not shown).
If an SD card is inserted
 The active Session name. This can be a session that’s already been recorded, or
just a session that has been named and has not yet been recorded into.
 The active Take. This can be the take that is being recorded, or the take that is
selected for playback. When multiple takes are present, you can use the Up or Down
arrows buttons to move select the take you wish to play.
 The current file position. When recording or playing back, this counter shows the
current record or play position. When idle, the rotary encoder allows shuttling the
start position of playback. Turning the rotary encoder slowly allows for changing
the position in 0.1 second increments, and turning the rotary encoder faster changes
the position faster.
 When recording, this counter increments down the remaining record time
available at the current settings and SD card capacity. For playback, this counter
increments down the amount of time remaining in the selected take.
The default meter type is the All I/O page. To change METER types, press the Meters/Exit button.
6.1.1 All I/O Meter
The All I/O page is the ideal place to get a “wide-angle” view of where signals are coming from and going to
in the Aurora system. The number of channels that will appear here is relative to the number of channels in
your Aurora
(n)
. Individual meter width will vary by total channel count.
The Settings page allows customization of the All I/O page to showing the LSlot channels either on the same
page or a separate page, depending on how many channels are available.
