This mode can be activated manually by selecting
Basic Mode
– AD/DA.
The device enters
AD/DA mode automatically when Basic Mode is set to Auto and a digital input signal is detected.
The detected digital input signal will also become the signal source. In case more than one digital
signal is found the user has to manually select the source to be monitored (
I/O
– Output Channel
- Settings
– Source
). The SRC is active by default, assigned to SPDIF, but switched off automat-
ically if a DoP signal (DSD) is detected. Clock mode is slave to AES in, but will adapt to the
detected source (Auto).
Note: To simplify the diagram and to maintain overview USB record is not shown. In all modes all
input signals are sent over USB to the host. In multi-channel mode three separate stereo pairs,
in stereo mode only the stereo analog input.
USB Playback channels 3/4 can only be monitored in multi-channel mode. In stereo mode select-
ing USB 3/4 plays channels 1/2.
The option
Digital Out Source - Main Out (SETUP
– Options – Device Mode / DSD) sends the
processed signal Line Out 1/2 to the digital outputs AES, SPDIF and ADAT, for example to con-
nect active monitors having digital inputs.
