Setting Up Audio
About Recording Levels and Inputs
When you connect your equipment, you should make sure that the impedance and
levels of the audio sources and inputs match. Typically, different inputs may be
designed for use with microphones, consumer line level (-10 dBV), or professional
line level (+4 dBV), or you may be able to adjust input characteristics on the audio
interface or in its control panel. Refer to the audio hardware documentation for details.
Making Settings for the Audio Hardware
Most audio cards come with one or more small applications that allow you to
configure the inputs of the hardware to your liking. This includes:
- Selecting which inputs/outputs are active.
- Setting up word clock synchronization (if available).
- Setting levels for each input. This is very important!
- Setting levels for the outputs, so that they match the equipment you use for
monitoring.
- Selecting digital input and output formats.
- Making settings for the audio buffers.
In many cases all available settings for the audio hardware are gathered in a control
panel, that can be opened from within Sequel as described below. If Sequel is not
running, the control panel can also be opened separately. In some cases, there may be
several different applications and panels. Refer to the audio hardware documentation
for details.
Selecting a Driver and Making Audio Settings in Sequel
The first thing you need to do is select the correct driver in Sequel to make sure that
the program can communicate with the audio hardware:
1. Launch Sequel.
2. Open the Settings Page in the Multi Zone.
3. In the Audio Settings section, click on the “Audio Connection” field, and select
your audio hardware driver.
4. Bring up the control panel for the audio hardware and adjust the settings as
recommended by the audio hardware manufacturer.
Under Windows, you open the control panel by clicking the “Setup…” button.
The control panel that opens is provided by the audio hardware manufacturer and
not Sequel. Hence it is different for each audio card brand and model.
The control panel for the ASIO DirectX driver is an exception, as it is provided by
Steinberg. It is described in the dialog help, opened by clicking the Help button.
!
Using the correct types of input is important to avoid distortion or noisy recordings.
Ö
Sequel does not provide any input level adjustments for the signals coming in to your
audio hardware, since these are handled differently for each card. Adjusting input
levels is either done in a special application included with the hardware or from its
control panel.
