M-AUDIO Delta RBUS User Manual

If recording from the S/PDIF output, make sure the S/PDIF output
format is correct. Open the S/PDIF page of the control panel software.
Under Digital Output Format, choose "Consumer." Uncheck "Advanced"
if it is checked previously. Now click on the "Restore Defaults" button to
set the default S/PDIF outgoing status bits. This will disable copy
protection and also set the emphasis to "none," allowing the DAT to
accept and record the audio properly.

Transferring from Computer to Roland R-BUS,
monitoring with Analog Outs

1. Connect the Delta R-BUS’s 25-pin R-BUS connector to the Roland

multitrack’s R-BUS connector using an R-BUS cable.

2. Connect the Delta R-BUS’s analog outputs to some type of amplified

sound system. The sound system should be equipped with speakers
or headphones. Set the line level switch in the Hardware Settings
page for the analog outputs to be compatible with that sound system’s
inputs (see section “Hardware Settings Page”).

3. Because you will be playing back at the recorded sample rate, you will

want to set the Delta R-BUS’s master clock to use the internal crystal.
Do this by opening the Hardware Settings page of the Delta Control
Panel software and under Master Clock, select "Internal Xtal." Also,
under the Codec Sample Rate section you may uncheck "Rate Locked"
if it is previously checked. This allows for more flexible sample rate
playback. Consequently, you will need to set up your Roland
multitrack to receive external sync, since the Delta R-BUS is now the
master clock.
