Audio Monitoring Options
 
 
 

When you are playing back audio with your video, you need to make sure your playback settings correspond to your audio configuration. Typically, each track is played through a corresponding port (e.g., track 1 passes through port 1, track 2 passes through port 2, etc.), but your system might be configured to have multiple tracks going through a single port (e.g., tracks 1, 3, and 5 pass through port 1). The Monitoring option allows you to set how the tracks are played back.

NoteIf you disable any audio tracks in the Playout menu, it will not be heard during playback.

To select a monitoring option, click the Monitoring option box to select the monitoring option you want.
