D-108 Owner’s Manual (Changing the initial setting )
Digital Output Track Setting ("Digi. out ? ")
This mode sets up the outgoing digital signal from the D-108 with what type and which recorded tracks. The D-108 can digitally
transmit the recorded audio as it is to external digital equipment. When you use this function, set the identical sampling frequency
on the external digital equipment as the D-108 sampling frequency.
* Initial setting : adat
* Available setting : adat, Lch 1 ~ 8, Rch 1 ~ 8
* This setting is commonly applicable to all programs.
* This setting cannot be saved or loaded.
* The setting is memorized even when the power is off.
Again, remember that you need to set the D-108 sampling frequency to match the
incoming digital signal sampling frequency.
1. Press the DISP SEL key and choose the flashing SETUP
mode on the display. Then, press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The SETUP display will stop flashing.
2. With the JOG dial, choose “Digi.out?”.
The “?” display will start flashing. The display will also show
the current setting. In the case of the initial setting, it will
show “adat”.
3. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current setting will start to flash which indicates it is
ready to change setting.

4-A. If you want to choose an SPDIF digital signal, when the
Lch display is flashing, choose the track you want with the
JOG dial.
Then, use the HOLD/> key or SHUTTLE dial to move to the
Rch. Using the same method for choosing the Lch, choose
the track in the Rch. If you choose normal numerical pairs
such as “L: 1, R: 2”, “L: 3, R: 4”, ........“L: 7, R: 8”, a two channel
stereo signal will be transmitted in SPDIF digital audio
format. In this case, the odd channels will be directed to the
Lch and even channels to the Rch accordingly.
You cannot assign the same track to both Lch and Rch. If you
accidentally do this, the Lch setting will be effective and the D-
108 will automatically cancel the Rch track assignment to “ - ”
as nothing is assigned. For example, if you chose channel 02
for both Lch and Rch and pressed the EXECUTE/YES key,
the D-108 would automatically assign as “L: 2, R: -”.
4-B. In the case that you want to choose an adat signal, when
the Lch display is flashing, choose “adat” with the JOG dial.
As you cannot choose “adat” while the Rch display is
flashing, use the HOLD/> key or SHUTTLE dial to move to
the Lch. All 8 track signals will be transmitted in adat digital
format.
5. Press the EXECUTE/YES key to register the tracks you have
chosen.
The display will go back to the display of Item 2.
6. Press the STOP button or EXIT/NO key to come out of this
mode.
* Press either the STOP button or EXIT/NO key to return
from the second step menu to the first or to quit SETUP
mode. The menu will go backwards each time you
press either key so that you can correct the setting,
choose some other SETUP mode or eventually return
to the normal time base display.
* All the analog output tracks are available regardless of
the above settings.
