Clock Mode
Sample Rate
Sets the currently used sample rate. Offers a central and comfortable way of configuring the
sample rate of all WDM devices to the same value, as since Vista this is no longer supported to
be done by the audio program. However, an ASIO program can still set the sample rate by it-
self.
At ongoing record/playback the selection is grayed out, so no change is possible.
Clock Source
The unit can be configured to use its own clock (Internal = Master), or one of the digital input
signals (Word, ADAT, SPDIF coax., LTC = Slave). If the selected source isn't available, the unit
will change to the next available one (AutoSync). If none is available then the internal clock is
used. The current clock source is displayed to the right.
Pitch
More information on Pitch is available in chapter 7.3.
Input Status
Indicates for each input (Word, ADAT, SPDIF, LTC) whether there is a valid signal (Lock, No
Lock), or if there is a valid and synchronous signal (Sync). The second row shows the sample
frequency measured by the hardware. In Clock Mode the clock reference is shown. See also
chapter 30.1.
