NOTE: All outputs are muted if:
1. external clock is selected but not present.
2. Digital input with no input signal is selected.
This is done on purpose to avoid interference of unsynchronized clocks which could degrade the sonic
performance of the interface.
Workstation AD/DA is more than just a digital audio converter. It is a complete front end for you computer
workstation. We will call it here "the Interface". The chart below and on the next page explains the basic
setup and functions of the interface. On the next pages you will find diagrams of the signal flow and basic
steps for a quick start.

There is a 5 secs delay
before the interface starts
to operate after the power up.
