Software application notes

Since much of the FW-1884’s operation pertains directly to your DAW software, TASCAM has prepared a series of application notes on using the FW-1884 with a number of different DAW programs.

Channel SEL Keys and LEDs

In COMPUTER Control mode, these keys select the associated channel as active in the host application. The EQ controls will typically address the host application’s SELected channel. In most cases, holding the REC key and pressing one or more channel SEL keys will arm the host application’s associated channels for recording. Refer to the Application Notes for your software for details.

Stereo LED level meters

The twelve-segment stereo LED meters display the level of the monitor buss stereo output, before the Monitor Level output. The signal are metered before the Monitor Level control, so its position will not affect the level at the LEDs The meters can monitor Inputs only, DAW channels only, or both sources simultaneously.

Three metering modes – Instantaneous, Peak Decay or Peak Hold – are available. For more information on metering functions, refer to section 3.7, “Monitoring and Metering Modes”.

Audio Monitoring

This setting determines how the Monitor Level control affects the FW-1884’s monitor outputs. The Audio Monitoring selection is used to specify which of the analog outputs will be affected by the FW-1884’s Monitor Level control. For stereo monitoring applications, only the Analog 1 and Analog 2 outputs will be connected to an amp and speakers.

By setting this control to “Monitor Level Affects Analog 1:2″ the Monitor Level control will only affect those outputs, leaving the remaining outputs 3 through 8 available for use as effects sends or direct outputs, with the digital streams from the computer passed through to them at unity gain.
