BrightAuthor Version 4.6

Enhanced Audio zones provide similar functionality Audio Only zones, but allow cross-fading between audio files in the playlist: Fading occurs from silence at the beginning of the audio playlist and to silence at the end of the audio playlist, while cross-fading occurs between audio files.

Important

Cross-fading will not work between audio tracks if they have different sampling rates (for example, if the first file is sampled at 48kHz and the second is sampled at 44kHz).

Use the Zone Properties window of an Enhanced Audio zone to edit the following:

Audio Output: Configure audio outputs for the zone.
Note

The Analog Stereo and and SPDIF outputs are only available on certain player models.
- Analog Stereo: Check this box to enable audio output via the 3.5mm audio connector (or USB Type C connector on the LS423).
- HDMI: Check this box to enable audio output via the HDMI connector.
  - Pass through: Supplies the un-decoded audio signal through the HDMI connector. Use this option if the zone audio (for example, AC3 Dolby Digital) is being decoded on an external device.
  - Stereo: Supplies the decoded audio signal through the HDMI connector.
- SPDIF: Check this box to enable audio output via SPDIF.
  - Pass through: Supplies the un-decoded audio signal through the SPDIF connector. Use this option if the zone audio (for example, AC3 Dolby Digital) is being decoded on an external device.
  - Stereo: Supplies the decoded audio signal through the SPDIF connector.
Audio Mixing: Choose the mixing of the audio output:
- Stereo: Outputs both left and right audio signals.
- Left: Outputs the left audio signal only.
- Right: Outputs the right audio signal only.
Initial Volume: Set the initial volume for audio files (0-100).
Minimum Volume: Sets the minimum volume for audio files (0-100).
Maximum Volume: Sets the maximum volume for audio files (0-100).

Note

The Maximum Volume setting will be overridden by other volume settings in a presentation, including the Initial Volume setting for the zone and volume commands attached to events or states.

Fade(in seconds): Sets the duration of cross-fading between audio files, as well as the fade in and fade out durations at the beginning and ending of a playlist.
