The
Sync Source
menu sets the clock source individually for each Upsampler input.
Set to
Audio
, the unit extracts the clock from the selected digital input and
locks to it. The Sync icon appears on the front panel, greyed-out during
locking. When locking is complete, the Sync icon firms up. The Upsampler’s
PLL will reduce the clock jitter, but this mode does not give the best jitter
performance. Sync to
Audio
is not available when the USB input is selected.
If the
USB
input is selected but a Master Clock is not available, the Upsampler
may be set to
Master
mode. In this mode, the Upsampler’s internal clock
controls the system timing, so Sync does not appear on the display.
Set to
WClk
, the Upsampler locks to an external Word Clock connected to the
W/Clk In
connector. The Sync icon appears on the front panel, greyed-out
during locking. When locking is complete, the Sync icon firms up. This setting
gives best results when using a Master Clock to sync the whole system.
This icon is displayed if the Word Clock input is not connected, or if
the Word Clock frequency is not recognisable.
