HD I/O Guide

Analog In Page
The Analog In page of the Hardware Setup dia-
log lets you set the Reference Level for the phys-
ical analog inputs on HD I/O. You can also apply
a limiter to each of the available analog inputs.
If you have only a single HD I/O AD Expansion
card installed, a single
Analog In
tab is available.
If you have two HD I/O AD Expansion cards in-
stalled, the tabs
Analog 1–8
and
Analog 9–16
are
available. The
Analog In
, and
Analog 1–8
and
An-
alog 9–16
pages provide the same controls for
the corresponding physical inputs on the HD I/O
AD card. If no HD I/O AD Expansion card is in-
stalled, these tabs are not available.
Reference Level
Select the appropriate
Reference Level
for each
of the available analog input channels. This lets
you select the analog audio input source on a
channel-by-channel basis. The
+4 dBu
option
routes audio from the ph4 dBu Balanced
DB-25 Analog Input port on the card. The
–10 dBV
option routes audio from the physical
–10 dBV Balanced DB-25 Analog Input port on
the card.
Limiter
HD I/O provides options for soft limiting on
each of the available analog input channels. Se-
lect the desired option from the corresponding
Limiter
pop-up menu:
None
Applies no limiting to the incoming ana-
log signal.
Soft Clip
Attenuates the incoming analog signal,
providing extra protection from temporary clip-
ping transients that can cause digital distortion
when they exceed the maximum input of the
unit. With Soft Clip enabled, HD I/O supports an
additional 4 dB of headroom by rounding off the
top 4 dB to the clip point. This is useful for elim-
inating stray transients.
Curv
Attenuates the incoming analog signal us-
ing a soft knee limiter circuit. This guarantees
super soft limiting without becoming hard, even
with large overloads on input.
