Soundcraft CUE Name
When a Snapshot is loaded remotely from a Sound-
craft Vi Console (via Ethernet), the Active Snapshot is
overwritten. When this occurs, [SOUNDCRAFT CUE] is
displayed, as shown at right.
Caution: When a Snapshot CUE is loaded from a Soundcraft Vi Console, the Active
Snapshot is overwritten, any unsaved changes are lost, and audio artifacts could
occur.
Clock Display
The Clock Display has three functions: It shows the currently se-
lected clock source, facilitates selection of a different clock source,
and indicates when the selected clock source signal is not detect-
ed.
Clock Source Menu
Realtime Rack can synchronize to external MADI clock, external
word clock, or Internal clock. To select a clock source, click any-
where in the clock display area to view the clock source pop-up
menu (shown at right), then select a clock source from the menu.
Tip: The clock source can also be specified in View
Menu>Settings>Hardware Tab>CLOCK SOURCE.
In typical use, Realtime Rack should be set to MADI clock (the default value) for syn-
chronization with the digital audio from/to the Soundcraft Vi console.
Note: The Clock Source cannot be modified in SAFE mode.
No External Clock
If the Clock Source setting in not set to Internal and the external
clock signal cannot be detected and/or resolved, then the text in
the Clock Display display flashes RED (shown at right) until a valid
clock is detected and/or an alternate clock source is selected. If this occurs, verify con-
nections and external device settings.
Important: Only one device in a digital audio system can be the master clock
source. The Realtime Rack clock setting, and the sample rate, must match the
MADI device settings or audio artifacts could occur.
No Hardware Detected
If the Realtime Rack hardware unit(s) is not properly connected
and/or the software is not properly installed, the clock source will
display OFFLINE as shown at right.
