Topic: Levels in TotalMix and Digicheck

I recall seeing a recent post which seemed to imply that there may be some error in displayed levels if Digicheck and Totalmix were in use simultaneously.  Despite a search through the forum, I cannot find this reference.   (It may have applied only to the Mac version of Digicheck.)

Perhaps the original poster could confirm this, or more probably, correct my aberrant memory.

Re: Levels in TotalMix and Digicheck

Ah!!! So that was where I saw it!  Sorry for the confusion.

A couple of thoughts:

It would be useful to be able to print the on-line help to a text based file (I have printed it to OneNote but it is an image, not text).  This means it can be indexed/searched along with the rest of our artificially-assisted knowledge base.  It means we can also study it when we don't have the computer on (yes there are some of us are not screen-engaged 24/7) - and we can do all sorts of memory enhancing things like manually highlighting/underlining personally important bits of information like this.

Secondly, in terms of the TotalMix/Digicheck level accuracy, consider the situation where I have two cards in the system - let us say a MADI card and an AIO card.  If TotalMix is displaying only the MADI card (and not for the AIO), does this mean I can use DigiCheck to monitor, say, hardware outputs of the AIO without impacting the accuracy of level display?

Sorry for the silly question:
Where can I find the so called "Online Help"?
Is it the simple helpfile which pops up when I press F1?

Yes, checking a different card does not influence the hardware level readout.

Re: Levels in TotalMix and Digicheck

As an afterthought - running two instances of Digicheck (say Vectorscope and Multichannel level meter) on the same card doesn't produce the same issues as running Digicheck and TotalMix simultaneously?

Re: Levels in TotalMix and Digicheck

Correct. The data is read only once from ONE instance running two (three and up) functions.
