Timing master playback?

[Leander]

Hey!

What does timing master playback mean and do (in the driver settings)? I have a Motu M4 with Out1+2 and Out3+4. 1+2 is connected to my speakers, 3+4 is connected to my phone amp. When I want to work with my headphones, I need to select Motu 3+4 in the DAW OR in Windows for e.g. music playback. However, Sonar works with both timing master playback settings regardless of speakers or headphones. Why? I can use 1+2 for speakers AND headphones...and also 3+4 for both. The only option I need to change is the master output of Sonar from 1+2 to 3+4.

Can't you plug your headphones into the MOTU?

I used a method that I don't know whether it's reasonable or not, that is to send the 12 of the main line to 34
