Default Avid MTRX Dante card SRC

Hi all,

This is a question for those people using the MTRX's Dante card.
I am struggling to get the SRC to work.

I want the Focusrite Rednet PCIER card to be able to connect to the Dante card (the slotted card, not the daughterboard card, but I have that too) at various sample rates controlled by the Rednet PCIER card.

My MTRX stays at 48khz always.
But the Rednet card is always changing sample rate.

So say I am in Logic and I open a session that is a 44.1khz sample rate I want the Dante card to SRC convert what is coming out of Logic at 44.1khz and resample it to 48khz.

Should work right?
Except that it doesn't.

I am assuming user error but I have tried all sorts of different configurations here.
When Logic clicks over to 44.1 the audio is disappears.

Some screen shots of how I have it configured.







Should Dante Card 7 be set to 'free' or 'follow'?
I've tried both.

Greetings,

Do you have multiple Dante networks? You should create multiple Dante rings, your default network (which is presumably your largest IP network) set to 48k. Ring 2 -> could vary or be set to 44.1k in this case. The Dante-128 can be used to bridge the 2 IP networks and sample rates. Within DADman Con (patchbay) you should see the SR represented vertically when looking at the source / input exploded patch view. You could keep the Dante-64 on the 48k net and put the Dante-128 on ring 2 (44.1) - for example.


Jeff

Ah of course.
No, I do not have different Dante networks, they are all on the same subnet.

I'll create a VLAN in the switch and it should work.

Thanks Jeff.

You must set "Sample rate" to Free, otherwise the samplerate of the Dante card will follow the samplerate of the MTRX.

It might sound strange that the card can follow the samplerate of the MTRX when you use SRC, but it can be used in cases where the Dante network uses a different clock source than the MTRX but you want to use the same samplerate.

Thanks Jan, understood.
