10.2 Monitoring NetAudio Server Status 89
VU Levels
These indicate the current record or playback levels after any ltering
or sample-rate conversion. Each '*' represents a 6 dB step in level. Levels
that will result in clipping are represented by '+' marks.
Buering
This indicates the utilization of the
DAT-Link
's internal buer. When
playing a le, an underrun error will o ccur if the buer empties completely,
thus having close to a full buer, as shown in Figure 10.1, is desirable. When
recording, an overrun error will o ccur if the buer ever lls completely. Thus,
in this case, an empty buer is most desirable.
Sampling Rate
This is the sampling rate of the les on the host side. If sampling
rate conversion is b eing used, then the converted rate will also be displayed
as shown on the playback side in the example.
