Settings
Set the front panel switches as required by your situation and by the equipment connected to
the rear panel connectors. If you are driving a 16-bit device, then use the 16-bit noise shaping
to handle the lower eight bits of data.
Set your levels as you would for any digital audio processor. If you use a tone to line the meters
up with your console, then with your console’s meters at 0VU, set the level controls for
either -18dBFS or -12dBFS on the AD9624’s meters. This is just a starting point, and you may
want to alter this relationship. Set your levels low enough that the CLIP indicator
never illumi-
nates.
The LINK switch makes the Channel 1 level control affect both channels simultaneously.
When the switch is DOWN, the two level controls act independently.
