On each LQ device within a Channel performs its own Local Audio Mix (LAM) or submix.
If two or more ports from the same LQ device are placed into the same channel then the LQ device will create a local audio mix (LAM). The LAM mixes audio at a very early stage of the audio transport which reduces the latency of the audio streams (below 4ms) and improves
audio processing. LAM is a way of improving latency, increasing the capacity of an LQ device in certain user cases
and reducing network usage.  LAM is performed automatically when ports are added to a Channel.




Network settings within a Channel are set on a per-device basis. To set differing network quality for ports from the same
device, put the ports in separate Channels. Click on blue green icon in the lower right hand side of the channel to access
the LAM transport settings. 
Note: The network setting is the bandwidth from the LQ device into the IP network.




Local Audio Mix/Transport Settings
Click a blue label to access settings.
Silence suppression. Default = Disabled
Enabling this option stops transmission and implement comfort noise whenever silence is detected. This is done to
conserve network resources.




Recommended network settings
• Internet - very low or low
• LAN / WAN - balanced or high
• LAN only - very high. This option enables 20 kHz bandwidth.
• Custom setting - The Custom option allows adjustment of the jitter buffer setting independent of bit rate and packet size.
Use the slider bar to select the desired network quality for your system. 

The jitter buffer setting is designed to buffer audio received to prevent loss if there is network jitter. The jitter buffer selection
directly affects the latency. This is because the lower number in the jitter range represents the amount the LQ unit will buffer
audio before delivering it to the port. A bigger jitter buffer setting increases latency in milliseconds.
Note: Within the Custom setting, selecting an Audio Bitrate of 128 Kbps automatically sets Bandwidth to 20 kHz.
