Digital I/O
This lets you set the format of your S/PDIF outputs.
Layla3G and Gina3G can transmit digital information in either of two formats:
“professional” or “consumer.” The primary difference between the two is in the
implementation of the SCMS copy protection bit, which, in the Consumer format,
prevents the user from making digital copies of a digital copy.
The S/PDIF output defaults to the Consumer format. If you are recording from
your Echo hardware into a professional DAT deck, CD recorder, or Mini Disc
recorder, the device may not be able to recognize the signal until you switch the
output to Consumer.
Select the appropriate format for your DAT, CD recorder, or Mini Disc recorder (if
you don’t know which one to use and are having difficulties, simply try the one
that is not currently checked).
Note:
No Echo hardware transmits the SCMS bit, regardless of which
format is selected.
