Using the 882/20 I/O

 

7

 

▲

 

In stand-alone mode, the 882/20 only op-

erates at a 44.1kHz sample rate. If you wish 
to convert analog signals into 48kHz digital 
audio, you must launch Pro  Tools (or any other 
software which supports the 882/20 I/O) to 

 

change the default sample rate.

 

To use the 882/20  I/O as a stand alone D/A 
converter:

 

1  

 

Make sure that a digital device providing 

a word clock signal is connected to the 
S/PDIF input of the 882/20 I/O and that 
the device is powered on.

 

2  

 

Turn on the 882/20 I/O. The 882/20 I/O 

will search for a valid word clock on its 
S/PDIF input. 

 

3  

 

When a valid word clock lock is recog-

nized, the 882/20 I/O will enter digital 
sync mode and function as a stand-alone 
D/A converter using the S/PDIF input and 
analog outputs 1–2. 

The 882/20 I/O sample rate is determined 
by the sample rate that it detects on its 
S/PDIF input. 

 

To return the 882/20  I/O to Pro  Tools-based 
operation:

 

◆

 

Turn on your computer.
– or –

 

◆

 

If your computer is on, launch Pro Tools.
