96i I/O Guide 6
Loop Master LED
The LOOP MASTER LED indicates which
Pro Tools|HD audio interface is the master
Pro Tools peripheral. Loop Master defaults to
the first Pro Tools|HD I/O connected to the
“core” Pro Tools|HD card. On Pro Tools|HD (for
PCIe) this is the Accel Core card. On
Pro Tools|HD (for PCI) this is the HD Core card.
Loop Master will always be lit in systems with a
single interface.
In expanded systems, only one Pro Tools|HD
I/O can be Loop Master at a time. When you
change the clock source to an external clock on
a particular Pro Tools|HD I/O or a SYNC I/O,
that Pro Tools|HD I/O (or SYNC I/O) will auto-
matically become the Loop Master and all other
Pro Tools|HD I/Os in the chain will be switched
to Loop Slave mode.
Sync Mode LEDs
The SYNC MODE LEDs indicate the current
Pro Tools Clock Source and Sync mode. Choices
include the following:
INT (Internal) Indicates the 96i I/O is the
Pro Tools clock master.
DIG (Digital) Indicates the 96i I/O S/PDIF port is
providing master clock to Pro Tools.
LOOP (Loop Sync) Indicates 96i I/O is in Loop
Slave mode, and is clocking to the current Loop
Master device (which will either be another
Pro Tools|HD audio interface, a Digidesign
SYNC I/O, or equivalent device). See also “Loop
Master LED” on page 6.
EXT (External) Indicates the 96i I/O EXT
CLOCK IN port is providing master clock to
Pro Tools.
For more information on Pro Tools clock op-
tions, see the
Pro Tools|HD Getting Started Guide .
Input and Output LEDs and Meters
16 sets of four-segment LEDs indicate signal
level for each of the 96i I/O input channels.
These LEDs are calibrated at –42 dB, –18 dB,
–6 dB, and 0 dB, respectively, referenced to Full
Scale digital.
Two additional LEDs, located to the left of the
meters, indicate whether the meters display in-
put or output levels; the meters indicate input
levels by default, and can be switched from
within the Hardware Setup dialog in Pro Tools.
Full Scale digital (0 dBFS) does not always
indicate signal clipping levels. Use the on-
screen meters in Pro Tools to determine
whether a signal is clipping. For more infor-
mation, see the
Pro Tools|HD Getting
Started Guide
