Unfortunately there is no way for the transmitting device to automatically
detect which format the receiving device is able to accept. If you have a
DAT deck that is not able to read the S/PDIF output from Layla, chances are
Layla is transmitting in the mode that the deck is not equipped to handle.
We have provided a software switch in the Layla driver that allows you to
select which mode Layla transmits. To access this switch go to the Windows
Start
button and select
Settings
. Select the
Control Panel
, double-click on
the
System
icon, and select the
Device Manager
tab. Now click on the
small plus sign to the left of the line labeled
Sound
,
Video
,
and Game
Controllers
. To view the settings for Layla’s driver, double-click on the
line that says
Layla by Echo
and select the tab entitled
Settings
. In the
window that appears you’ll see a pair of check boxes in an area labeled
S/PDIF Output Setting
; one box is labeled
Consumer
and the other
Professional
. Select the appropriate mode for your DAT (if you don’t know
which one to use, simply select the one that is not currently checked). Now
exit from the
Control Panel
and again try recording to your DAT.
Important note: Layla never transmits the SCMS bit, regardless of which
mode is selected.
Problem:
When the Windows start-up sound plays, it plays at an altered
pitch.
Solution
: When Layla is set to sync with an external device, it will playback
at the rate generated by that device. If the startup sound you are using was
sampled at 8 kHz, but you are synchronized with a device running at
44.1 kHz, the startup sound will play back at this faster rate. You have three
choices - ignore the altered pitch, switch to Layla’s internal clock, or use a
different device for the startup sound playback. We suggest that you never
use Layla for playback of any of Windows’ system sounds.
Problem:
Layla doesn’t seem to recognize the synchronization clock to
which it is connected.
Solution
: Although it may seem obvious, the first thing to check is that
there is a physical connection between the device generating the clock and
