3. In the Devices list, select VST System Link.
4. Use the ASIO Input and ASIO Output pop-up menus to dene which channel is the
networking channel that carries the VST System Link information.
NOTE
The networking signal is carried on only one bit of one channel. For an ADAT-based system
7 channels of 24-bit audio and 1 channel of 23-bit audio will be used for networking. You
will still have around 138 dB headroom on this channel.
5. Activate the Active checkbox at the top left of the VST System Link setup.
6. Repeat the steps for each computer in the network.
RESULT
The sending and receiving indicators on each active computer ash, and the name of each
computer appears in the list in the Self test section of the dialog. Each computer is assigned a
random number.
The name will be shown in the VST System Link window of every computer on the network. You
can double-click the name of the computer and enter another name.
NOTE
If you do not see the name of each computer, go through the procedure above again and make
sure that all ASIO cards are listening to the digital clock signals correctly, and that each computer
has the correct inputs and outputs assigned to the
VST System Link network.
