17.4.2 Class Compliant Multi-channel mode

With USB connected all digital and analog inputs (6 channels) are routed to USB recording. In
the same way USB playback will feed all outputs separately (8 channels).

In 6/8 channel mode all I/Os can be used separately. Phones output 3/4 provides USB playback
of channels 1/2 when its Source is set to Auto (default).

The option

Digital Out Source - Line Out

(SETUP

– Options – Device Mode / DSD) sends the

processed signal Line Out 1/2 to the digital outputs AES, SPDIF and ADAT, for example to con-
nect active monitors having digital inputs. The USB playback channels 5/6 and 7/8 can not be
used anymore.
