For advanced users, the S/PDIF In option may be used to operate the Audiophile 2496
at non-standard sample rates. When the Audiophile is set to derive its master clock
from S/PDIF In, the Audiophile's sample rate will automatically match that of the
incoming S/PDIF data stream. Therefore, sample rates anywhere between 22kHz and
100kHz are possible.
NOTE:
source, the Delta Audiophile 2496 mixer's frequency response will
be affected by whatever sample rates you inject at the S/PDIF In.
This is because (1) the digital mixer operates at the same sample
rate as the rest of the board, and (2) sample rate and frequency
response are directly correlated.
Using the Audiophile 2496 with your Software
Application
Once the Audiophile 2496 hardware and software drivers are properly installed, the
Audiophile is ready for use with your music application software. Some software
applications may require you to highlight or enable the Audiophile 2496 drivers within
the program in order to use the Audiophile, while others may have a utility that
analyzes or profiles the audio cards in your system and enables the drivers. Your
software should have an audio device driver setup page and if you have problems
locating it you should consult your software's documentation.
WINDOWS MME AUDIO INPUT DEVICES: All Audiophile 2496 analog and
S/PDIF inputs may be used simultaneously for a total of 4 input channels. Within your
software application(s), the names of the Audiophile 2496 audio input devices are:
PCM In 1/2 Delta-AP
S/PDIF In Delta-AP
Mon.Mixer Delta-AP
"AP" in these names stands for "Audiophile." The PCM In device allows recording
a stereo stream directly from the analog input pair. The S/PDIF In device allows you
to record a stereo stream directly from the S/PDIF input. The Mon.Mixer device
allows stereo recording from the digital "monitor" mixer built-into the Audiophile.
The audio data recorded from this device is the mix of input and output streams set
up in the Delta Control Panel software's Monitor Mixer (see 'Audiophile 2496
Control Panel Software' section).
Note that all of the input devices are stereo. Your application
software may break these down further to "left" and "right" mono
devices.
Delta-AP, Right PCM In 1/2 Delta-AP", "Left S/PDIF In Delta-AP,
Right S/PDIF In Delta-AP", or "Left Mon. Mixer Delta-AP, Right
Mon. Mixer Delta-AP," etc. from within your recording software.
When the S/PDIF In is selected as the master clock
Therefore you may see them as "Left PCM In 1/2
