ConfiguringAudio
Whenyoufirstinstallthematrixtheunitisinsinkmodeinpassive.Therearetwomodes,oneisSource
Mode,andtheotherisSinkMode.SourceModeisthelegacyroutingwheretheaudiooutputs1to8
arelockedtoHDMIinputs1to8respectively,withaudiooutputs9and10linkedtoaudioinputs9and
10.SinkModeallowsaudioroutingtoanyoftheaudiooutputzones,enablingtheaudiotobecontrolled
completelyseparatelyfromthevideo.Thesystemhasanaudiolockingfeaturetoenablecontinuous
audiotoanoutputzoneregardlessofswitchingvideosources.
Audiowillnotbemanipulatedatthisstage,howeverifaudiooutputareconnectedtostereo/phono
jacks,thevideomatrixwilldownmixtheaudioautomatically.Theprocesswilldownmixmultichannel
audio(Dolby5.1,notDTS)tostereo(2ch).
SomechangesespeciallychangebetweenOptical/HDMIARCrequiretorebootneo:X+inorderforthe
changestotakeeffect.
