to the actual audio, it just turns the flag on and off (so, in this sense, your Eclipse can misinform). Setting the emphasis to
thru
simply mirrors the out-
put flag so that it matches the input flag.
Assuming that you’ve set (CS-TYPE) to Cns, you can select copy status at
SETUP DIG-OUT FORMAT (SCMS). Your choices are:
copy OK This will allow subsequent digital devices to make unlimited copies of the output audio. You
should leave it set to
copy OK unless you feel justified in doing otherwise…
1 more This will allow only one subsequent digital device to use the output audio. After that, no
more digital copies are permitted. We’ll let you decide when this would be useful.
no copy This will allow no subsequent digital devices to use the output audio. …a good way to pro-
tect your wares from flea-bitten pirate varmints!
Select
SETUP DIG-OUT FORMAT (BITS) to choose the output word
length: 24, 20, or 16 bits.
ADAT Output or Two-Channel Optical Output?
The optical output can be made to send eight-channel digital audio in the
ADAT protocol (
ADAT) or two-channel digital audio in the protocol cho-
sen above (S/PDIF). Select between the two at SETUP DIG-OUT
(OPTICAL). (You would not normally select ADAT for sampling rates above
50kHz).
If you select
ADAT, proceed to SETUP DIG-OUT (ADAT-OUT). Repeatedly
press ADAT-OUT to select each channel and turn the knob to change the
status of its output. Your choices are:
Thru The selected ADAT channel will carry the same signal that the corresponding Adat input
carried.
Mute The selected ADAT channel will carry silence.
Ch 1 The selected ADAT channel will carry the Eclipse’s channel 1 output.
Ch 2 The selected ADAT channel will carry the Eclipse’s channel 2 output.
If you select Adat for the optical output, the other digital outputs send the
format selected at SETUP DIG-OUT FORMAT (CS-TYPE) as described
above.
