Advanced Settings

ASIO mode only

Allows the user to set the number of transmit and receive Dante audio channels available and advertised on the network. This enables the number of channels shown in the Dante Controller and the audio application to be limited to only the number the user requires. Allowed settings are 2 x 2, 4 x 4, 8 x 8, 16 x 16, 32 x 32 and 64 x 64.

Important:  The maximum number of Dante audio channels that can be reliably recorded or played out by Dante Virtual Soundcard is dependent on the network speed and sample rate. The maximum recommended number of Dante audio channels to be recorded or played out by Dante Virtual Soundcard is shown in the table below.

100Mbps

Note:  A Gigabit network is recommended for best performance.

Note:  For recording and playing back more than 16 audio tracks to and from disk, disk speeds of 7200rpm and above are recommended.
