Configure InstaRecorder
Setting the DigaSystem parameters for the InstaRecoder has the following sections:
Each parameter is described in the complete list.
Audio Format
The Audio format is the one used for all recordings in InstaRecorder.
It specifies the resolution and the sample rate.
Parameters:
- Resolution
- SampleRate
Audio level scales
The Audio level scales can be configured separately for the faders and the level meter, which shares one scale with the level trigger.
Each scale value to be displayed can be defined. They can be represented in logarithmic or linear scale.
Parameters:
- LinearDbScale
- Segments
Recorders
Any amount of recorder strips can be defined to appear by default.
Parameter: RecorderCount
Configure each Recorder
Each Recorder gets a set of parameters defining the defaults for device, channels, DigaSystem table and title:
Its parameters are placed in a sub-folders Recorders\Recorder_<x> (<x> subsequent from 1 to the number of recorders), which contains:
- Device
- Table
- Title
- a sub-folder Channels with one key for each channel
- CH<x> (<x> is the indicated channel number)
Automated Start Trigger
The Start Trigger mechanism is used to automatically start a recording when the audio level of a source device reaches a certain level for at least a defined amount of time.
Parameters:
- StartSignal\LevelDb
- StartSignal\DurationMs
