8 - E-MU Digital Audio System
4 - E-MU 1010 PCI Card & Interface
The E-MU 1010 PCI card is the heart of the system and contains E-MU’s powerful E-DSP chip. The powerful hardware DSP
on this card leaves more power free on your CPU for additional software plug-ins and other tasks.

EDI
Connector
Connects to the AudioDock using EDI (E-MU Digital Interface) cable. This cable provides a
a two-way data link between the E-MU 1010 and the AudioDock as well as supplying
power to the AudioDock.
S/PDIF
Digital Audio
Input &
Output
Each RCA phono jack carries two channels of digital audio. S/PDIF digital I/O can be used
for the reception and/or transmission of digital data from external digital devices such as a
DAT machine, an external analog-to-digital converter or an external signal processor
equipped with digital inputs and outputs.
The S/PDIF out can be configured
in either Professional or Consumer mode, always with
24-bits of resolution. The S/PDIF input and outputs support 44.1kHz, 48kHz and 96kHz
sample rates, but are disabled for 192kHz.
ADAT
®
Optical
Digital Input
& Output
The ADAT optical connectors transmit and receive 8 channels of 24-bit audio using the
ADAT type 1 & 2 formats (at 44.1kHz or 48kHz). The word clock contained in the input data
stream can be used as a word clock source. The ADAT optical ports can also be switched to
carry optical S/PDIF.
ADAT can also be transmitted and received at 96kHz or 192kHz using the S/MUX standard
which encodes the extra data onto multiple channels.
FireWire®
(IEEE®
1394)
This port allows high speed data transfer between your computer and external storage
devices such as hard disks, CD-ROM drives, etc. With FireWire (IEEE 1394) ports you can
plug and unplug Firewire peripherals without turning off power.
This port does NOT support Firewire audio at this time. It is fully compliant with the OHCI
1.1 specification, supporting asynchronous and isochronous data transfers at 100,200 or
400 Mbit/s with multiple DMA channels.
