AudioSystem EWX 24/96
!
The Card Connections and their Application.
After your audio card’s successful installation we now come to
the most important part – the connection of usable devices and
their matching software settings.
One thing to mention first: The goal in the development of the EWX 24/96 was to cre-
ate a soundcard with the least amount of extras allowing the focus to be placed on the
sound quality. The AudioSystem exuberates a sense of purity with which you can be
certain: Incorrect usage is next to impossible and you obtain the maximum quality all
the time – so have fun!
Overview.
The AudioSystem EWX 24/96 is equipped with stereo in-and outputs for both analog
as well as digital components. Analog devices (like an amplifier, tape deck, active
loudspeakers or mixer) can be integrated using the RCA jacks. For devices with digital
hook-ups there are the optical connectors – they work using the S/PDIF standard and
allow for a completely loss-free 1:1 transfer of audio signals in all relevant resolutions.
Connector options at a glance.
Additionally you have the option to connect a MIDI adapter kit (optional accessory)
and the TerraTec phono PreAmp (also optional) to the included slot hook-up. The
connector uses the standard PC gameport format. But the configuration is only for the
use of the above-mentioned optional accessories, not for the use of a joystick. Con-
necting a joystick is, however, not dangerous.
