16.4.1 CONNECTION TYPE
Naturally, only one connection can be active for a given audio input at any moment. To access
the
Connection menu, move the cursor into the label of an input, and click the Configure (gear)
button that appears just at right. The Advanced Audio Configuration panel will be shown.
The drop-down Connection menu at the top of this pane allows you to assign any one of the
supported sources connected to the system to this Audio Mixer control column.

• Local
o Physical inputs on the system’s backplane or faceplate listed, usually as Input # , but in some
cases as “Mic” or “Line”.
Local sources support different connection types, as determined by a menu at right in the
same group. This option typically defaults to
Auto-detect , but depending on model may
include Line, Mic, or Embedded (which is the correct setting for audio included with an SDI or
NDI video connection).
o Network audio from supported protocols (such as Dante; may require third-party drivers).
o Skype TX Caller 1, 2 (sound from these two special input types, further discussed in the next
sub-heading).
• Follow (Video Source) – this is the default selection, and causes the control column to follow the same
numbered video Switcher input.
• All available NDI audio sources.
Note: Channels 1 and 2 from Master and Aux 1 are always placed on Dante output channels 1-4, respectively.
SECTION 16.5
LOCAL SKYPE TX CALLERS AND MIX MINUS
The default Connection option for external Audio Mixer inputs is Follow Video Source . When an audio input
set this way is assigned to a Local>Skype TX Caller channel, the audio control group is automatically assigned
to govern incoming audio from that remote Skype caller.
