Option +CQS provides automatic audio muting during switching transitions from one SDI input source to another to provide silence between input switches. Clean and Quiet Switching allows SDI input selection to be changed from one source to another while ducking audio during controlled input video switching transitions to provide silence between input switches. The cross-fade is queued for the next available RP168 switch line following the switch command.
(Please note that Clean and Quiet Switching is intended for PCM audio only, and only for intentional, controlled switches via user control. Clean audio switching cannot be assured for failover switches.)
The software can be ordered with card purchase, or activated later using a downloadable feature key via free DashBoard™ remote control/monitoring software (no need to remove or replace card.)
