Sample Clock Source
You can set the clock source to
Automatic
or
Internal
.
Automatic (default):
If a signal is being
input to the
DIGITAL IN
jack, its clock will
be used. If no signal is being input to the
DIGITAL IN
jack, the US-144’s internal
clock will be used.
Internal:
The US-144’s internal clock will
always be used.
This lets you choose either
AES/EBU
or
S/PDIF
as the digital output format.
Many professional devices use an XLR
connector for AES/EBU. Special adapters
may be purchased to convert between a
digital audio RCA connector and digital
audio XLR connector.
USB 1.1 Mode Input Selection
This item is shown only if the US-144 is
connected to a USB 1.1 port on the host
computer or to a USB 1.1 hub. In this case,
the US-144 functions as a 2-in / 2-out
audio device, rather than the usual 4-in /
4-out. You can choose either
Analog
or
Digital
as the input source.
