Output Word Length
The indicated output word length can be set on the
right-hand side of the
format
menu page in the
SETUP
area. Your choices for output bits are:
16
,
20
, or
24
.
Unless a special "dithering" preset is in use, this setting will not indicate the actual output
word length, but may be useful for external equipment. S/PDIF outputs do not support
this word length indication.
Bypassing and Muting
Sometimes you’ll find it necessary to bypass the H8000FW using the
BYPASS
key. A
number of bypassing options exist in the
LEVELS
area. There are two "levels" of bypass,
system
and
machine
.
System
refers to the
H8000FW as a whole, whereas
machine
refers
to each DSP.
System Bypass
The three options that exist for
system
bypass are:
rly bypass
Uses relays to "hardwire" each input to its corresponding output, i.e.,
analog input 1 is connected to analog output 1, digital input 3 is connected to digital
output 3, etc. This may well NOT be the same as the current routed configuration. For
example, if Analog in 1 is routed to Digital out 3, this will differ from the connection
when bypassed. Be aware of the following:
•
When the H8000FW is powered down, it is in
rly bypass
state.
•
Because relay bypass directly connects the unit following the H8000FW to that
preceding it, the resulting impedance changes can cause a click or change in
output level.
•
Because the 1/4" analog inputs have no corresponding 1/4" analog outputs,
rly
bypass
effectively mutes those analog inputs that are mated with 1/4" plugs.
ADAT, AES11-17 and FIREWIRE are not bypassed in this state.
dsp bypass
Makes each output of each DSP the same as its corresponding input.
For example, DSP A’s output 2 will be the same as DSP A’s input 2, DSP B’s output 4
