Activating VST System Link

Activating VST System Link
Before you proceed, you need to make sure that VST System Link is set as the
timecode source in the Project Synchronization Setup dialog and that the desired
Sync options are activated.
After setting up the inputs and outputs, you now need to define which input/output
will carry the actual VST System Link information.
The VST System Link networking signal is carried on only one bit of one channel.
This means that if you have an ADAT-based system which normally carries eight
channels of 24-bit audio, once you activate VST System Link you will have seven
channels of 24-bit audio and one channel of 23-bit audio (the least significant bit of
this last channel will be used for networking). In practice this makes no discernible
difference to the audio quality, since you will still have around 138 dB headroom on
this channel.
To set things up, open the VST System Link panel:
PROCEDURE
1. From the Devices menu, open the Device Setup dialog.
2. In the Devices list to the left, select the “VST System Link” entry.
The VST System Link settings are shown to the right of the Devices list.
3. Use the ASIO Input and ASIO Output pop-up menus to define which channel
is the networking channel.
4. Activate the Active checkbox at the top left of the panel.
5. Repeat the steps above for every computer in the network.
