9. Sample rate select switch This specifies the sampling frequency at which audio data will be recorded and played back. In order to get this
setting to take effect, you must exit all of your software, then cycle the power to the FA-101 (switch it off, then
back on again).
* If you are using Macintosh and want to change the sampling frequency, you must first power down the FA-101. Then, access the Mac
OS
System Preferences
–
Sound
, and verify that
EDIROL FA-101
has disappeared from the
Input
and
Output
panes.
Then, power up the FA-101 again. For information on how to display the Mac OS

, refer to
“Input/output device settings”
(p. 14).
You must set the
sample rate select switch
to match the sampling frequency selected in the software you
are using. If you use external synchronization mode (i.e., the DIGITAL IN switch turned on), the external
device’s sampling frequency must also be the same.
[ Limitations when using the FA-101 at 192 kHz ] •
Input/output level indicators
The
input/output level indicators (4)
will not function during output.

Direct monitor
You can monitor only the signal input through the
combo input jacks (1)
.
10.Direct monitor soft control switch (direct monitor mixer section) Turn this on ( pressed inward) if you want to control the direct monitor mixer (see block diagram
➔
front
cover) from your ASIO 2.0 compatible software. If this is on, your software will be able to control the monitor
volume, pan, and on/off status of each input jack.
If this is off, all settings of the direct monitor mixer will be ignored (= bypassed), allowing you to monitor the
input signals from all input jacks. This is convenient if you want to check the connections while temporarily
ignoring the software settings.
* This function is available only on Windows.
11.STEREO/MONO select switch (direct monitor section) This selects whether the input signal will be monitored in stereo (STEREO) or monaural (MONO). Turn this on
( pressed inward) if you want to monitor in monaural.
Even if this is set to monaural (MONO), the audio signal is sent via FireWire (IEEE 1394) to your computer in
stereo.

12.Direct monitor volume (direct monitor section) This adjusts the monitor volume.
Turning this knob toward the left (OUT 1/2) will decrease the
level of the sound being input through the input jacks. Turning
the knob toward the right (MONITOR) will decrease the level of
the sound being output from your computer. At the center
position, the sound being output from your computer and the
sound being input via the input jacks will both be at 100% of
their level.
13.Headphone volume This adjusts the volume that is output from the
headphone
jack (15)
. This does not affect the volume that is output from the rear panel
main output jacks (MAIN
OUT) (24)
.
14.Headphone jack This jack outputs the mixed sound being input via the input jacks and the sound being output from the
computer (WAVE OUT 1/2 (in the case of WDM,
OUTPUT 1
➔
see p. 22)). The balance of these two is adjusted
by the
direct monitor volume (12)
.
Even if headphones are connected, the sound being sent from the rear panel's
main output jacks (MAIN
OUT) (24)
will not be cut off.
15.FireWire (IEEE 1394) indicator Lights when the FA-101 is connected to your computer via a FireWire (IEEE 1394) cable.
16.Power indicator Lights when the power is on.
