Digital Aes3 Left/Right Input/Output - Orban Optimod-PC 1101 Operating Manual

OPTIMOD-PC
•
Inputs and outputs passing through the computer's PCI bus, using operating sys-
tem multimedia sound drivers, such as Microsoft Windows DirectSound WDM
WAVE drivers.
These inputs and outputs are controlled by the OPTIMOD-PC Mixer appli-
cation, which can be launched from the Tools menu on the OPTIMOD-PC
control application, and can also be remotely accessed.

Digital AES3 Left/Right Input/Output

The digital inputs and outputs follow the professional AES3 hardware standard re-
garding impedances and levels, although their data streams can also be configured
to follow the consumer SPDIF standard.
In most practical situations, AES3 and SPDIF are interchangeable and can
be interoperated with each other without difficulty; you usually do not
have to concern yourself with which standard you are using. Generally, if
the equipment to which you are connecting has pin jacks, set OPTIMOD-
PC to use the SPDIF standard. If the equipment has XLR-type connectors
