and Source B) can be established for each output. For these custom monitor sources to be
active, the TO ANALOG OUT switch on the Digital I/O & Settings page must be set to
“Remote”. In this state all three LEDs for the TO ANALOG OUT button on the Aurora
front panel will be illuminated.
t These buttons allow individual monitor sources to be selected for each analog output
when using Remote Routing. Clicking a button allows selection of any Analog, Digital or
LSLOT input source (LSLOT = MADI). Holding down the CTRL key while selecting a
source causes the remaining channels to be set sequentially (i.e. if you select LSLOT In 1
as the monitor source for Analog Out 1 while holding down the CTRL key, LSLOT In 1-
16 will be assigned to Analog Out 1-16).
y These faders allow control over the output level of each monitor source when in Remote
Routing mode. This level attenuation occurs in the digital domain, so it is recommended
to leave these faders in their default, maximum position in situations where the highest
fidelity is required. Holding down the SHIFT key on the keyboard while adjusting a
fader, will cause adjustment of channel pairs.
u This display reveals the amount of attenuation, in dB, of a monitor source.
i This button enables the mute function for the associated monitor source.
Any input sources assigned to an output can be assigned multiple times, for instance, a stream
coming in to MADI inputs 1 and 2, can be routed to Analog outputs 1 and 2, as well as Analog
outputs 9 and 10. With an Aurora 16 it is important to be aware of whether the Aurora is
operating in 16 or 32-channel mode. This will determine the number of MADI input channels
that will be available for routing.
Some examples of possible routing combinations would be:
Routing MADI input streams to Analog outputs AND routing Analog inputs to Analog outputs:
TO ANALOG OUT = “REMOTE”
Source A = LSLOT 1-16
Source B = Analog In 1-16
Routing 16-channels of MADI input streams to Analog out 1-16 AND Digital out 1-16:
TO ANALOG OUT = “Remote”
TO DIGITAL OUT = “Remote”
Analog Source A = LSLOT 1-16
Digital Source A = LSLOT 1-16
Sending a stereo MADI stream to 16 MADI outputs:
TO DIGITAL OUT = “Remote”
Digital Source A = LSLOT 1/2, LSLOT 1/2, etc.
