Setting the "Master Clock" to "Input Pin" in SSI_LDD results in this code in Audio0_Init (default name):
/* I2S0_MCR: MOE=0 */
I2S0_MCR &= (uint32_t)~(uint32_t)(I2S_MCR_MOE_MASK); /* Disable MCLK divider */
while ((I2S0_MCR & I2S_MCR_MOE_MASK) != 0U) {} /* Wait for MCLK disable*/
/* I2S0_MDR: ??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,FRACT=0,DIVIDE=0xF9 */
I2S0_MDR = (I2S_MDR_FRACT(0x00) | I2S_MDR_DIVIDE(0xF9)); /* Configure Mclk divide ratio */
/* I2S0_MCR: DUF=0,MOE=1,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,MICS=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0,??=0 */
I2S0_MCR = (I2S_MCR_MOE_MASK | I2S_MCR_MICS(0x00)); /* Configure Mclk source */
Last line: MOE is set, making the MCLK line an output.
