Power connector:
For connection to the Calf’s external “wall-
wart” power supply. The Flying Calf uses a 9 Volt DC, 300
milliamp (or larger), center-pin positive supply.
5.
Analog Out (Right and Left):
These are the analog audio out-
puts from the Flying Calf’s D/A converter. These 1/4" jacks
provide unbalanced line-level signals. Each jack provides a
"tip/sleeve" type of connection.
6.
S/PDIF In:
This female RCA jack accepts a standard S/PDIF
digital audio input. The S/PDIF signal is "stereo," containing
both left channel and right channel audio data. The S/PDIF
data rate also determines the audio sample rate. The Flying
Calf will lock to S/PDIF sample rates of 50 kHz and below.
