Using The Digitiser/E-MU 0204
The E-MU 0204 may start up with the sample rate set to 48000
samples/second. Before the Digitiser can be used, this must be set to
192.0kHz in the E-MU control panel.
If you attempt to use the Digitiser with the sound card set to the
wrong sample rate, the Digitiser software may show the message
“Undefined External Error”. If the error does not occur, the audio will
be very poor quality and lacking high frequencies.
Stereo Digitiser Users:
When using a stereo Digitiser, ensure that both cards are set to
192kHz, the devices can be selected as shown.
Set Windows Sample rate
(Windows Vista only)
Click on start menu and browse to Control
panel – Sound, Click on the 'Recording' tab,
select the E-MU0204 Microphone icon and
click on 'Properties'.
In the properties window, click on the
'Advanced' tab. Select the default format as 2
Channel, 24 bit, 192000Hz (Studio Quality)
Stereo Digitiser Users - ensure that both
sound cards are set to this value.
Set Audio Level (Important)
In the Sound card properties, set the level to 3
for Windows 7, and 23 for Windows Vista.
This should give a standard line level for the
Digitiser. It may be necessary to adjust this
level control to compensate for poor levels on
cassette.
The Audio input level controls on the front of
the E-MU 0204 USB interface should always be
set to zero.
Please note: It is not necessary for the Digitiser
sound card to be the default.
