Power User Tip: Word clock is the timing signal with which digital devices
sync frame rates. Proper word clock sync prevents digital devices from
having pops, clicks, and distortion in the audio signal due to mismatched
digital audio transmission. In general, you will use your Quantum 4848
interface as the master clock in your studio; it provides high-quality word
clock for this purpose. However, if you would like to use another device as
the master clock, you can set the input source for clocking in UC Surface.
See Section 4.1 for details .

用户提示：字时钟是数字设备同步帧率的计时信号。正确的字时钟同步可以
防止数字设备由于不匹配的数字音频传输而导致音频信号出现爆音、咔嗒声
和失真。一般你会使用 Quantum 4848 接口，作为工作室的主时钟，它提
供高质量的字时钟。如果你想使用其他设备作为主时钟，你可以在 UC Surface
中设置时钟的输入源。详见第 4.1 节。

Power User Tip: When using the BNC Clock input for external clock,
you will need to set “Wordclock” as the Clock Source in Universal
Control as well as to set the sample rate to be the same as the
external clocksource device. See Section 4.1 for details. A 75Ω BNC
word clock cable is required to achieve proper sync.
用户提示
:当使用 BNC
时钟输入作为外部时钟时，你需要在
Universal Control
中设置
"Wordclock "
作为时钟源，并将采样率
设置为与外部时钟源设备相同。 详见第 4.1 节 。为了实现正确
的同步，需要一根 75Ω 的 BNC 字时钟线缆。

ADAT – S/MUX In and Out. These are the ADAT – Dual S/MUX connections
for your external digital devices. When recording or playing back at 44.1
or 48 kHz, each ADAT I/O will provide 8 of the 16 available channels
consecutively, from left to right. When recording or playing back at 88.2
or 96 kHz, each connection will provide four of the available eight channels.

Power User Tip: You will need to set “ADAT 1” as the Clock Source in Universal
Control as well as to set the sample rate to be the same as the external
clocksource device when clocking external via ADAT. See Section 4.1 for details.
The ADAT 2 input cannot be used to receive word clock.
用户提示： 你需要在

Power User Tip: Quantum interfaces support clustering over Thunderbolt. In
addition to allowing you to use your Quantum-series interface as a Thunderbolt
hub, this allows you to chain up to four Quantum interfaces, aggregated over
Thunderbolt, for higher I/O counts. See Section 5 for more information.
