    Note : The panel will indicate that the Bridge is not initialized and MassCore not running, that is normal.
    Warning : when switching mode, the audio streams will stop and the inputs - outputs will be disconnected.

  3. Click on the Advanced Settings button at the bottom of the UI.

  5. This will automatically open the VS3 Control Panel.
    Please make sure that Pyramix or Ovation Platform is set to MassCore.

  6. In the Audio Bridge section at the bottom of the panel, activate the MT ASIO bridge Host.
    Set the required Number of Channels (I/O)
    Press OK to confirm and close the panel.


    Note : the number of channels values will be updated automatically in the MAD panel.

  7. Start your MassCore Pyramix / Ovation.
    The MT ASIO bridge inputs and outputs are now available in your mixer.
    Note : Currently the MT ASIO Bridge is not compatible with DSD sampling rates (please use DXD projects with Hepta SRC)

  8. Start your third party ASIO Application(s) and set it to use the Merging Audio Device driver.

  9. The buffer size can be modified in Pyramix/Ovation Settings > Hardware > MassCore.
    The available values depends on the Latency mode in the VS3 Control Panel (AES67 : 48,96,192,... / Low : 64,128,256,....)

...

In MAD - MassCore mode, the bridge channels are pure virtual channels, and cannot be routed to the MassCore mixer.
Those virtual channels are designed to connect third party ASIO applications between them ;  e.g. a soft synth audio is routed to a MIDI sequencer - ASIO application, then routed into PMX Mixer.


Rewire Mode

MAD MassCore mode and Rewire Mixer mode cannot be used at the same time, as both use the same MTASIO Bridge.
If you need to run MassCore with Rewire Mixer mode, please change the MAD running mode to RAV/AES67.
