DAW Setup

In your DAW's audio or device settings, select the Horizon audio device/driver installed for your system.

Horizon 8P DAW Setup

When Horizon is selected as the DAW audio device, changing the DAW session sample rate changes the Horizon system sample rate. Horizon supports 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 and 192 kHz, and the Horizon sample-rate setting is global across connected Horizon devices.

When other digital equipment is connected, keep the complete digital system to one clock master and use matching sample rates throughout. If you hear clicks, pops or distortion, or a digital input does not lock, check the selected clock source, sample rate, optical and BNC connections, and the Horizon 8P front-panel Status view. See Digital I/O & Clocking for ADAT channel counts, S/PDIF operation, word-clock setup and termination.

The Horizon Control Mixer monitoring faders control the monitoring path rather than the recorded input level sent to the DAW. This allows the Main Mix and Independent Mixes to be adjusted for listening without changing the source level being recorded by the DAW.
