Channel Status; Asio (Windows) - TerraTec PHASE 22 Manual

Channel Status

Here, you can define whether a signal you send via the digital interface conforms to the
S/PDIF protocol and should contain certain copy-protection information. It is possible to
add copy-protection information (original) to your recording when transferring it to another
device. This can be useful when recording a composition to DAT or a MiniDisk as a demo
to prevent (digital) copies from being made.
n S/PDIF Enable defines the outgoing signals as S/PDIF data stream. This is the most
commonly available transfer protocol and is "understood" by most professional and
consumer devices.
n
Copyright adds a (S/PDIF) copy-protection ID to the signal or filters it out when deac-
tivating copy protection. This function sets the so-called "copy protection bit" which
ensures that no digital copies can be made of the signal. Please note that this "protec-
tion process", like other similar processes, only provides extremely marginal protec-
tion of your work.
n
NonAudio adds information to the data stream that defines it as "anything, but not
only audio" so that it can be reproduced in RAW format (e.g. for AC-3 / DVD Audio,
see below).
n
Original activates the so-called "generation bit", permitting exactly one digital copy to
be made. Disabling this function sets the bit to 0 - you can then copy to your heart's
content.

ASIO (Windows)

Programs that support Steinberg's ASIO feature dialogs containing special settings for
