Apple Workgroup Server 6150/66 - Manual (Page 123)

Choosing audio output options
You use the Sound control panel to designate the audio output device and
options you want.
Follow these steps to direct the server’s sound to an output device:
1 If you want to use an external device for sound output, connect it to the sound output port,
following the instructions given earlier in “Connecting an Audio Device.”
2 Open the Sound control panel and choose Sound Out in the pop-up menu.
The Sound control panel is in the Control Panels folder in the Apple (
K) menu.
3 Click the icon that represents the source of sound output.
About the sample rate: Most of the time you will not need to change the
sample rate. Use the Rate pop-up menu to change the sample rate only if the
sound you wish to play was recorded at a sample rate different from the current
setting. For instance, if you play a QuickTime movie containing sound recorded
at 44.1 kHz, set the sample rate in the Rate pop-up menu to 44.1 to hear the full
quality of the sound. Increasing the sample rate slows performance.
m Do not set the sample rate higher than the sample rate of the sound you are
playing, since this slows your server’s performance without improving
sound quality.
m Do not change the sample rate if the Play-Through option is selected.
