Ukusebenzisa i-Universal Control Mixer

I-Loopback
Loopback audio is the industry term for routing audio from one application to another. Applications that use audio interfaces, like your Quantum interface, are designed to receive audio from one audio device and send audio to one audio device. This means that most applications can only send to and receive from an audio interface, but not from other applications. This can present a challenge in certain situations. Fortunately, Quantum HD audio interfaces allow you to take audio from any of Universal Control’s mixer inputs (mics, guitars, computer audio, etc.) and send the combined audio to another application for the purpose of recording or live streaming.

Ungayisebenzisa kanjani i-Loopback
Uma ufisa ukusebenzisa isici se-Loopback, landela iziqondiso ezingezansi:

1. Make sure that your Quantum HD is selected as the Windows or macOS playback device.
2. In your DAW or software application, choose the channel input labeled Loopback 1 or Loopback 2. Any audio sent to Loopback 1 or 2 will be available as a virtual input in your DAW or other software applications (not all software applications support multichannel inputs).
   Note: Loopback inputs are disabled at sample rates ye-176.4 kanye ne-192 kHz.
3. In Universal Control’s mixer window, adjust the send level to whichever Loopback send you’ve selected in Fender Studio Pro.
   • I-Loopback 1 Thumela Izinga. Lungisa inani lomsindo ongathanda ukulithumela ku-Loopback stream 1.
   • I-Loopback 2 Thumela Izinga. Lungisa inani lomsindo ongathanda ukulithumela ku-Loopback stream 2.
4. Ngemva kokulungisa izinga lokuthumela le-Loopback, uzoqaphela ukuthi amazinga okulinganisa avela ngaphakathi kwe-DAW noma isiteshi sohlelo lwesofthiwe osimisile. Uma ukulinganisa sekuvela, usulungele ukuqala ukurekhoda umsindo.

ISEXWAYISO:
Qiniseka ukuthi isiteshi esiku-DAW yakho sithulisiwe ngaphambi kokuthi urekhode usinike amandla ukuze ugweme izihibe zempendulo.

I-Quantum Multichannel
Multichannel is a hardware and software operating mode that can be configured using Universal Control. Quantum HD 2 and HD 8 interfaces can be used as an all-in-one monitoring hub for some multichannel formats (depending on the amount of analog outs per device).
Uma imodi yeziteshi eziningi ikhethiwe, inkinobho izolawula yonke ivolumu yesipikha ehambisanayo ngesikhathi esisodwa. Ukuze uthole ulwazi olwengeziwe mayelana nenketho ngayinye ye-Multichannel, review uhlu olungezansi:

• None: Knob control is disabled and unity audio will be sent out of all outputs.
• All: The knob will control the output volume for all outputs at the same time.
• 1 – 2: The default Main Encoder mode. The knob will control the output volume for Main Outputs 1 and 2.
• 1 – 4: The knob will control the output volume for Outputs 1, 2, 3, and 4 all at the same time.
• 1 – 6 (Quantum HD 8 only): The knob will control the output volume for Outputs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 all at the same time.
• 1 – 8 (Quantum HD 8 only): The knob will control the output volume for Outputs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 all at the same time.
• All + ADAT: The knob will control the output volume for all outputs (including the ADAT connected HD 8) at the same time.

ISEXWAYISO:
Full-scale audio will be sent out of Main Outputs 1 and 2. Main Outputs 1 and 2 will be muted when this mode is selected to avoid damaging speakers or other equipment.

Using Your Quantum Interface

Njengesixhumi esibonakalayo somsindo

• The Quantum HD functions like other audio interfaces when used without the Universal Control application installed. Quantum HD’s class-compliant (macOS) and WDM drivers (Windows) enable it to be used for computer audio I/O routing with any compliant software with some limitations.

Ukusetshenziswa Okuzimele (HD 8 ADAT Preamp Ukunwetshwa)
The Quantum HD 8 can be used to add mic pres to another Quantum HD running in audio interface mode (with Universal Control installed) or a third party audio interface that supports ADAT optical inputs as well as S/MUX and its variants. To use a second or third Quantum HD as a standalone preamp through ADAT, access the secondary or tertiary Quantum HD’s Global Settings when not connected to a computer and set the Standalone mode to “ADAT.” By default, this mode is set to “Mixer.”

• As long as the additional HD 8 is put into ADAT mode, and the clock source is set to externally clock via SPDIF, ADAT, or Word Clock, the 48V and Gain Knob controls will be present at the top of each ADAT fader.
• Note: When in ADAT mode, the knob of the HD 8 expansion will no longer control volume and will blink 3 times if turned in either Main or Headphone control modes.
• The knob will still control gain level if a channel is selected.
• If you select “All + ADAT” from the Main Encoder settings, the knob will control the output volume for all outputs (including the ADAT connected HD 8) at the same time.
• Note: As with any of the other Main Encoder link modes, as outputs get assigned to be controlled by the knob, those outputs paths become unavailable as Sends for cue mix routing, etc.

 Send Routing Options
Quantum HD interfaces have two send options located in the Universal Control settings panel. Depending on which option is selected, ADAT Sends and computer playback channels (ex., USB 5/6) will become available or unavailable. In either mode, Loopback 1 and Loopback 2 are available as Sends on any input channel.

• Analog Out (default). When analog out is selected, Sends can only be routed to the physical analog outputs of Quantum (for example, Out 3/4, Out 5/6, etc.). When this option is selected, ADAT signals can be easily routed from your DAW.
• Analog + ADAT. When Analog + ADAT is selected, the mixer is reconfigured so that all analog and ADAT outputs are available as Sends on input channels. When this option is selected, the computer playback input channels (USB 5 – 10) will no longer be available in UC’s mixer and all ADAT signal routing must be done through Universal Control. In other words, ADAT will not pass if routed from a DAW.

QAPHELA:
Ngo sample rates greater than 96 kHz, all digital inputs are disabled as well as Loopbacks 1 and 2.

Nge-Universal Control

• Quantum HD and Universal Control can be used without a DAW or any other software. Using Universal Control without a DAW provides access to all Quantum HD functionality and simplifies the use of Quantum HD’s digital mixing and monitoring when a DAW is not needed.

• Each Quantum input and output has a channel number and name provided by the Quantum HD drivers on macOS and Windows. If an audio software application can access Core Audio / ASIO devices directly, it may be possible to designate specific inputs and/or outputs within the application.

Izilungiselelo Zokulawula Konke Ezigcinwa ngemva komjikelezo wamandla

• All currently active Main Mix settings (channel volume level, pan position, solo, mute, and stereo link) and monitor settings (main and headphone output levels) are saved to internal firmware before your Quantum HD are powered down, and recalled when power
  is reapplied.

Qaphela:
Izinguquko azilondolozwa ngaso leso sikhathi. Sicela uvumele kufika kumasekhondi angu-10 ukuze izilungiselelo zilondolozwe kudivayisi ngaphambi kokucisha amandla.

Nge-DAW (ngaphandle kokulawulwa kwendawo yonke)

• Uma isetshenziswa ne-DAW kodwa ngaphandle kohlelo Lokulawula Konke, i-DAW ilawula wonke umzila wesignali we-I/O nokuqapha isofthiwe.

Ukuqapha nge-DAW

• Umsebenzi oyinhloko we-Universal Control ukuqapha okokufaka kwe-Quantum phakathi nokusebenza okubukhoma. Uma ukuqapha kwesofthiwe kunikwe amandla ku-DAW, ukuqapha okokufaka kwe-Universal Control kumele kukhutshazwe ukuze kuqedwe amasignali aphindwe kabili.
• Qiniseka ukuthi ukhubaza ukuqapha kokufaka ku-Universal Control lapho uqapha isofthiwe nge-DAW. Uma ukuqapha kokufaka kwe-Universal Control kungakhutshaziwe (isiteshi esithulisiwe, i-fader down, noma i-mixer edluliwe), i-phasinUkuphindaphinda kwesignali (izi) eqashwe kuzokwenzeka ngoba isignali yokufaka izwakala kabili - okokuqala kusuka ku-low-latency DSP mix (Universal Control) bese kuthi ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho kusuka ku-higher latency software mix (DAW).

Ungakukhubaza kanjani ukuqapha okokufaka ku-Universal Control

• Ukuze ukhubaze ukuqapha okokufaka ku-Universal Control lapho usebenzisa ukuqapha kwesofthiwe ku-DAW, vula i-Universal Control futhi uthulise wonke amashaneli okokufaka ngaphakathi koLawulo Lwendawo yonke noma wenze kusebenze “Isihlanganisi Se-Bypass” Ezilungiselelweni. I-Universal Control ingase ivalwe.
• Ukusebenzisa i-DAW ngaphandle kokulawulwa kwendawo yonke wukugeleza komsebenzi okuvamile phakathi nokuxubana, lapho kungadingeki ukuqapha ukubambezeleka okuphansi futhi ukubambezeleka kwebhafa akuyona inkinga ngoba amathrekhi aserekhodiwe kakade. Lapho uqopha amathrekhi amasha, ukugeleza komsebenzi kwe-DAW kanye Nokulawulwa Komhlaba Wonke (njengoba kuchazwe esigabeni esilandelayo) kuyanconywa.
• Kulesi simo, i-Quantum isebenza njengesixhumi esibonakalayo somsindo. I-DAW ifinyelela futhi ihambise isixhumi esibonakalayo somsindo we-Quantum I/O ngamashayeli edivayisi. Ukubambezeleka kwe-I/O yomsindo kunqunywa isilungiselelo se-I/O Buffer size.

• Qiniseka ukuthi ukhubaza i-Software Monitoring ku-DAW uma usebenzisa i-Universal Control. Uma i-Universal Control isetshenziswa ekuqapheni okufakwayo bukhoma nge-DAW, isici sokuqapha isofthiwe se-DAW kufanele sikhutshazwe. Uma kungenjalo, thumela i-imeyiliasinUkuphindaphinda kwesignali (izi) eqashwe kuzokwenzeka ngoba isignali yokufaka izwakala kabili - okokuqala kusuka ku-low-latency DSP mix (Universal Control) bese kuthi ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho kusuka ku-higher latency software mix (DAW).

I-Loopback
Quantum’s device drivers carry virtual (software only) input and output channels in addition to those directly associated with the hardware inputs and outputs. Loopback facilitates highly flexible signal routing via the DAW, without needing to reach behind the gear rack for manual cable patching. Additionally, since the loopback audio streams are in the digital domain, a pristine audio signal path is maintained without requiring additional A/D – D/A conversions. Loopback sends enable any input to be routed directly into Universal Control’s FlexChannel (see section 2.3.2 in this manual for more information).

Setha Kabusha Idivayisi
Uma uhlangabezana nenkinga nge-Quantum yakho futhi udinga ukusetha kabusha idivayisi, ungasetha kabusha izilungiselelo zedivayisi ezizenzakalelayo noma ubuyele ku-firmware yangaphambilini.

Izilungiselelo Zedivayisi Ezenzakalelayo
Uma kunesidingo, ungabuyisela i-mixer ezenzakalelayo (preamp gain, output levels, etc.) and system settings (speaker switching modes, headphone mix sources, etc). To restore the default system settings:

• Ku-Universal Control, zulazula uye kokuthi Izilungiselelo (isithonjana segiya)
• Cindezela inkinobho ethi “Factory Reset”
• Ibhokisi lokuqinisekisa lizovela
• Khetha okuthi “Setha kabusha” ukuze uqinisekise noma “Khansela” ukuze ukhansele ukusetha kabusha

Your Quantum HD interface can be controlled directly from Fender Studio Pro (only compatible with version 6.6.1 or higher). After configuring the inputs and outputs of your interface within Fender Studio Pro, you’ll have easy control over various channel parameters, including channel Preamp Gain, Phantom Power, High Pass Filter, Auto Gain and Pad (HD only). To set up your Quantum Interface in Fender Studio Pro, follow the directions below. Once all cable connections are made and you have updated the Quantum’s firmware:

1. Launch Fender Studio Pro.
2. Navigate to Studio Pro/Options/Audio Setup/Audio Device (macOS: Preferences/Audio Setup/Audio Device) to open the Audio Device settings window.
3. Khetha i-Quantum njengedivayisi yokudlala kanye neyokurekhoda.
4. Lungiselela noma iyiphi enye idivayisi yomsindo noma izilungiselelo zokucutshungulwa njengoba uthanda.
5. Chofoza okuthi KULUNGILE.

I/O Ukusethwa

• Before creating your first song, it’s recommended that you first configure your Quantum Interface for input and output routing in Fender Studio Pro.
• To route Inputs and Outputs, go to Fender Studio Pro Preferences, then select “Audio Setup”. In the bottom left corner, select “Song Setup” to enter the Audio I/O Setup tab.

Ukwabela I-Hardware I/O Kumashaneli e-I/O Yesoftware

• Okokufaka kwezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha kanye nokuphumayo kwabelwa amashaneli e-I/O esofthiwe kumzila we-matrix, okuwumfanekiso obonakalayo womzila. Amashaneli e-software (i-mono ne-stereo) ngalinye linikezwa umugqa ovundlile, futhi okokufaka kwezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha kanye nokuphumayo kunikezwa amakholomu aqondile. Amaphoyinti lapho le migqa namakholomu ehlangana khona amelela ukuxhumana okungaba khona, noma imizila, phakathi kwezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha ze-I/O kanye namashaneli e-I/O esofthiwe.
• By default, Fender Studio Pro creates three Input Channels: one stereo and two mono. These channels are labeled Input L+R (stereo), Input L (mono), and Input R (mono). By default, the stereo Input Channel receives input from the first stereo hardware input pair of your selected audio device. The two mono Channels receive input from the same stereo hardware input pair. The Output Channel is labeled Main Out (stereo) and is routed by default to the first stereo hardware output pair of your selected audio device.
• Ukuze udale umzila phakathi kwamashaneli e-software ye-I/O ne-Hardware I/O, chofoza isikwele esingenalutho empambanweni yokokufaka noma okukhiphayo kwezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha oyifunayo kanye nokokufaka noma okukhiphayo kwesiteshi sesofthiwe. Kuvela isikwele esinombala esinelebula engu-M, L, noma R, ebonisa ukuthi umzila ungumzila we-mono (M) noma ohlangothini lwesobunxele noma lwesokudla lomzila we-stereo (L noma R).
• Qaphela: Phezulu sample rates, the number of available ADAT Inputs and outputs is reduced for each port. At 88.2/96 kHz, only ADAT channels 1–8 are available, and all digital is disabled at sample rates ingaphezulu kuka-96 kHz. Iziteshi ze-ADAT ezingatholakali zikhonjiswe embhalweni we-ithalikhi emakhasini Okokufaka, Okukhiphayo, Ibhasi, kanye ne-Insert Okusethwa kwe-I/O.

Ukusethwa Kokufaka Kwe-Quantum
From the Inputs tab, you can enable any or all of the inputs on your Fender Quantum audio interface that you’d like to have available. Use the “Add” button options below the matrix to add new inputs.

Izici ezihlanganisiwe ze-Quantum

Ukusethwa kokuphuma kwe-Quantum
Ukuze uhlele umzila ophumayo, chofoza kuthebhu "Okukhiphayo" bese wengeza okuphumayo usebenzisa izinkinobho zokungeza ngezansi kwerutha ye-matrix.

Ukusethwa Kwedivayisi Ezenzakalelayo
We recommend that you create a default Audio I/O Setup that can be a starting point for all new Songs. This lets you immediately begin working on your new Song, with little or no preliminary setup. To do so, create software I/O channels for all of your audio device’s commonly used inputs and outputs and name them appropriately. Then, click on the “Make Default” button in the Audio I/O Setup menu, and a pop-up window appears to confirm that you wish to make the current I/O setup the default for new Songs. Click “Yes”, and from that point forward, all new Songs will be created with this audio I/O setup. You can always use the “Reset to Default” button to apply this configuration to a song.
