Hint: When the Proc Amp is enabled for a specific source, a small yellow indicator is displayed in
the upper-right corner, just above the corresponding monitor in any of the three main monitor
tabs. (This indicator is itself also a toggle switch.)
7.2.4 AUDIO SETTINGS
Figure 77
The lower part of the Input Configuration panel is devoted to Audio Configuration.
The Input Type menu offers the following audio connection options:
Mic
Mic + Phantom
Line
SDI Embedded (shown only when the video connection is SDI).
The neighboring Gain slider adds a range of adjustment beyond the basic level established by the
Input Type selection, permitting you to benchmark individual sources. Finally, the Mute switch
prevents the audio source from being heard at all in captured files or on output.
Note: The Input Type menu for Input 7 is ghosted when the input is in use for timecode (LTC) input
(see Section 7.2.5).
The audio VU meters (VU stands for Volume Unit) above each of the video input monitors serve
several purposes. At the simplest level, as you record audio with your video (or pass it through
to output), the input meters assure you that audio is arriving at the audio inputs.
