Setting the digital out format (Digital out)

The “Digital out” menu allows you to select the digital signal format (AES/EBU or S/
P DIF) of the signal fed from the outputs of the [DIGITAL I/O] connector.

1.

Select the “Digital out: ******” menu and press the [ENTER] key.

The currently selected option flashes (the default selection is “AES/EBU). You
are now able to select the option.

2.

Use the [SEL] dial to select the desired format (AES/EBU or S/P DIF), and then
press the [ENTER] key.

A digital signal is output by the IEC 60958 (AES/EBU) format.

A digital signal is output by the IEC 60958 (S/P DIF) format.

Digital input channel setting (Digital in)

The “Digital in” menu selects the input channel sources between digital and analog
in two channel pairs (channels 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6).

On the “Digital in” menu screen, select the channels to be edited, press the [ENTER]
key, and then select “Digital” or “Analog”.

You can make digital recording to channels which select “digital” in the “Digital in”
menu when the channels lock to a correct digital clock. If the channels do not lock to a
digital clock, the analog inputs are selected automatically regardless of the “Digital in”
setting. The digital input signal format (AES/EBU or S/P DIF) is automatically detected
by the PD-6.
