AudioSystem EWX 24/96
31
The Analog Outputs of the EWX 24/96.
The EWX 24/96 analog outputs work with a line level of –10 dBV
or +4 dBu. Connect your active loudspeakers, auxiliary input
from your amplifier, or a mixer here.
The Basics.
The AudioSystem EWX 24/96 is equipped with 2 high quality analog outputs in RCA
jack form (RCA). They are mentioned in the software as 1 stereo pair, but can be regu-
lated separately.
The accompanying audio driver is represented with the name “EWX 24/96 WavePlay
Analog”.
The playback volume level for this driver can be managed using the “WavePlay Ana-
log” controller. This is also the controller for software driven audio signals (like Direct-
Sound, MME, GSIF and ASIO).
The output volume of all (in or connected to the card) signals can be managed using
the “Analog Out” controller. The output level can also be switched between -10 dBV
und +4 dBu in the EWX Control Panel (more to that later).
Safety Instruction
.
Please remember to switch off all (analog) devices before con-
necting them. This is to avoid the danger of an electric shock -
even a weak one - it also protects your speaker membranes and
your hearing from sudden signal spikes. For digital devices, the
volume of your playback system should at least be turned to
low.
Stuff Worth Knowing
The stereo output pair is surely the most important part of your soundcard. Connect
your preferred listening device here – active loudspeakers for example, or a free input
on your Hi-Fi-system (but please don’t use the Phono input, because it’s routed to
another controller!), or a studio/DJ mixer board.
The EWX 24/96 outputs operate using normal line/level controllers, which means the
cards voltage output is as a rule compatible with all known consumer or studio de-
