I/O Settings - E-Mu 404 Owner's Manual

I/O Settings

The 0404 PCI card is optimized for signal levels of -10dBV (consumer standard) for the
analog inputs and outputs. -10dBV levels are compatible with most consumer audio
gear.
Setting correct input and output levels is important! You can measure the level of an
input by inserting a meter into the first effect location in the strip. Adjust your external
equipment outputs for the optimum signal level. See
for details.

out is always transmitted on both the coaxial and
optical outputs.
Selects between S/PDIF or AES/EBU format for S/PDIF .
This sets the S/PDIF-AES status bit, but does not affect
the signal level.
