AUDIODESK

include or exclude the audio from the computer in

the stream being sent back to AudioDesk. For

details on how to do this, see “Mix1 Return

Includes Computer” on page 65.

☛ War n i ng: th e Mix 1 1-2 input can cause

feedback loops! DO NOT assign this input to a

track that shares the same UltraLite output pair as

MIX1.

24-BIT OPERATION

Yo u r U l t r a L i t e h a r d w a re fully supports

AudioDesk’s 24-bit recording capabilities,

including both analog and digital 24-bit recording.

If you would like to record and play back 24-bit

audio ﬁles, go to the Setup menu, choose Conﬁgure

Audio System>Conﬁgure Sample Format, and

choose 24-bit recording as the sample format. This

setting is saved with the AudioDesk project.

MIDI I/O VIA THE ULTRALITE MIDI PORTS

Once you’ve followed the procedure for enabling

the UltraLite’s MIDI features as explained in

“Software installation for Mac OS X” on page 25,

the UltraLite MIDI ports will appear as a input

source and output destination in AudioDesk’s

MIDI I/O menus.

PROCESSING LIVE INPUTS THROUGH

PLUG-INS

If you patch a live input (such as MIDI synthesizer)

through a plug-in effect in AudioDesk, you might

hear a slight delay. There are several ways to reduce

this delay. For details, see chapter 10, “Reducing

Monitoring Latency” (page 53).

EXCHANGING PROJECTS WITH DIGITAL

PERFORMER

To o p en Au d io D e s k Ve r s i o n 2 (or Version 1) ﬁles in

DP4, just use DP4’s Open command. (No

conversion is required beforehand in AudioDesk.)

To e x p o r t a D i g i t a l Performer project to

AudioDesk, use Save As in Digital Performer’s File

menu and choose the AudioDesk 2.0 ﬁle format.

Then open the resulting AudioDesk 2.0 document

in AudioDesk.

AUDIODESK AND MIDI SEQUENCING

AudioDesk can play audio as a background

application, allowing you to run a sequencer at the

same time in the foreground. However, there is no

way to continuously synchronize — or resolve — a

sequencer with AudioDesk, so the two programs

will eventually drift out of sync, even if you manage

to start them at the same time. If you’d like to do

integrated MIDI sequencing, your best bet is

Digital Performer, which offers pretty much all of

the same features as AudioDesk, along with

powerful, state-of-the-art MIDI sequencing. Talk

to your authorized MOTU dealer for details about

upgrading from AudioDesk to Digital Performer.
