AudioSystem EWX 24/96

The Settings (below).
The Master Clock.
At this point we would like to discuss sample rates, with which you use your
EWX 24/96. This is a very important point, because the card can be synchronized by
other devices (
External
, e.g. a Minidisk recorder), or the value can be set (
Internal
)
and forwarded to other devices. When a valid S/PDIF signal is sent to the digital input
the sample rate is shown in the EWX Control Panel and the EWX 24/96 sample rate
can be synched to the (
External
) signal.
Please note that when recording over the S/PDIF port, that the cards sample rate must
match that of the sending device. To ensure an error free synchronization to the exter-
nal device, set the
MasterClock
in the EWX Control Panel to “External”.
If you forget this step, then among other things, you
will hear errors (drop-outs, popping) in your record-
ings as a result. And also vice versa (an external de-
vice should be synchronized with the EWX24/96) you
need to make the corresponding settings to your
peripheral devices. The EWX Control Panel then needs
to be set (as is during operation without connected external devices) to “Internal”. If
you have devices
permanently
connected in both directions then you have to decide
which end should determine the synchronization.
