DD8
plus Version 2.20 - September 1998
88.2KHZ AND 96KHZ SAMPLE RATES
These high-resolution sample rates are available for applications such as DVD authoring. These
options are intended for use when connected to external equipment using the IB-D8MA24
(8-channel AES/EBU digital input/output board). When either of the “88.2kHz (2-ch)” or “96kHz
(2-ch)” options are selected on the DIGITAL SETTINGS page, the DD8 enters a special ‘dual-
channel’ mode where inputs and outputs are paired:

This is similar to the high sample rate support provided by the Nagra-D and several external AD/
DA convertors. When this mode is selected, the INPUT ROUTING page will change to show you
the pairs of inputs that are assigned to each track:
