AUDIO SIGNALS

Audio
Filter Cutoff (/LED)
The B2000 Extended Video Slot offers a few additional audio sig-
nals.
These are the left and right audio channels before they're passed
through the low pass filter on output. For many applications, the
audio sampling rate is low, and as such requires a low pass filter t o
be in place at fc
=
6 kHz or so, t o prevent audio aliasing. However,
higher sampling rates are possible, and in such cases, a much higher
filtering frequency is required for best possible sound. This raw
audio. left on pin 33 and right on pin 35, is buffered but unfiltered.
This is the /LED port line. In the B2000, as per the A500 convention,
this signal is used t o cut out the two pole low pass filter on the stan-
dard audio channels. When asserted, the filter is in place; when ne-
gated the filter is bypassed. This is an input t o this Video connector,
useful t o allow any AudioNideo card t o monitor the audio filtering
state. Pin 31 .
