Appendix A: Example of Simple System Test Setup 

 

This is the simplest test to configure, as it requires no DAW or digital audio on the PC and no virtual 

soundcard software (this is licenced software and costs money!). It also enables a back to back 

analogue audio test to be performed using the dScope.
