WORKFLOW

What it handles

The useful parts, without a generic feature checklist.

01

Direct LTC input

Installs a dedicated virtual audio input for Resolume—no Loopback or third-party audio router required.

02

Automatic rate following

Reads ArtTimeCode at 24, 25, 29.97 DF, or 30 fps and generates matching LTC.

03

Return-path verification

Decodes the generated LTC through the virtual input and compares it against the network source.

04

Show recovery

Monitors the sender, adapter, audio device, callback cadence, sample rate, and output confidence.

SETUP

Install it once. Check it before show.

The exact routes and health checks for both conversion directions are documented and ready to use.

GUIDE 01

Install and connect
