8.3 Option WDM Devices
The area WDM Devices gives configuration access, a status display showing the number of
currently enabled WDM devices, and a listbox to select between
Stereo
or
Multi-Channel
devic-
es.
The number represents both record and
playback devices, so ‘1’ means one input
and one output device.
The screenshot to the right shows the stereo
WDM devices available with the HDSPe
RayDAT, and that only ADAT 1/2 has been
activated. Any number can be activated. Also
only higher numbered devices might be ac-
tive. For example using the output ADAT 5/6
for system based audio does not require to
activate any other stereo device. Only ADAT
5/6 will show up in the Windows Sound con-
trol panel.
The checkbox
All
to the right allows for a
quick check/uncheck of all devices.
The screenshot to the left shows the multi-
channel WDM devices available with the
HDSPe RayDAT
after selecting ‘Multi-
Channel’ in the WDM Devices listbox and
hitting
WDM Configure
. In this example the
device
ADAT 9 to 16
is active.
Using a multi-channel WDM device allows for
the use of multi-channel playback with spe-
cialized software as well as Surround sound
from DVD or Blu-Ray player software.
Changing to the tab
Speaker
presents a list
of all currently activated WDM devices. Any
of these can now get the Speaker property.
Please note that defining more than one device as Speaker usually makes no sense, and the
speakers also don’t get numbered or renamed in Windows, so it is impossible to find out which
one is which.
Multichannel devices can be addressed as 2-channel, 4-channel, 6-channel or 8-channel device.
After leaving the dialog with OK the WDM devices are reloaded so Windows sees their new
properties.
