Menu Options

Audio File Format: Sample Format

The audio data format that Mixbus uses internally. New recordings will be stored in this format, and files will be con- verted to this format when imported.

•Float (floating point 32-bit) (default value) Allows extra headroom above 0dBFS for JACK-enabled connections and/or bounces within Mixbus.

•24-bit: If you plan to record live sources from a A/D converter and do not use internal bouncing-to-disk, then

24-bit will save some disk space.

•16bit: If working with audio sourced from a CD, this uses half the storage space of "float" option.

Audio File Format: File Type

The file type that Mixbus uses internally.

•Broadcast Wave: Industry standard .wav files with an additional time-stamp that may be used in some soft- ware. File size is limited to 4GB.

•Wave: Industry standard PCM file. File size is limited to 4GB.

•Wav64: Industry standard PCM file. Uses 64bit length value in the header allowing nearly limitless recording length at any sample rate.

•CAF: Same as Wav64, but this format is only common on OSX.

Sync: Send MTC

Send MTC (MIDI Time Code) from a MIDI port. Can be used to maintain sync with an external drum machine, sequencer, video player, or other MIDI device.

Sync: Send MMC

Send MMC (MIDI Machine Control) from a MIDI port. Can be used to start/stop drum machines, video players or other MIDI devices.

Sync: Use MMC

Mixbus will respond to MMC machine commands (stop, play, record-arm, etc).

Sync: Timecode

This selects the SMPTE timecode format for the session, including "drop" formats and HD formats. For more infor- mation see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

Sync: Pullup

In professional video post-production, pullup/pulldown is sometimes required to accommodate the differences between film and video rates.

Sync: Subframes

SMPTE clocks may be separated into 80 or 100 subframes (for display purposes only).

Control Surfaces: Remote ID

•Remote User Defined: Remote controls, such as MMC, will number the tracks according to the user-specified Remote Control ID chosen for each track/bus.

•Remote Mixer Defined: Remote controls, such as MMC, will number the tracks according to their order in the Mixer window.

•Remote Editor Defined: Remote controls, such as MMC, will number the tracks according to their order in the Edit window.

Control Surfaces: Auto Rebinding

If using a MIDI fader controller, this should be ON.

Control Surfaces: Feedback

Some generic MIDI controllers have indications for the current setting of a knob. If you controller has this feature then this should be ON.
