stereo devices down further to "left" and "right" mono devices. Therefore
you may see them as "Left WavOut 1/2 Delta-TDIF, Right WavOut 1/2
Delta-TDIF", or "Left WavOut S/PDIF Delta-TDIF, Right WavOut S/PDIF
Delta-TDIF", etc. from within your music software. Other software will
handle the outputs as stereo pairs, but allow you to pan audio left or right
within the pair.
Note that each device name begins with "WavOut." This is to remind you
that these are software devices, and not always connected directly to
output hardware. Instead they are connected to the Delta TDIF’s internal
patchbay/router and may be sent to one of many destinations. For more
on the patchbay/router, see the Patchbay/Router section of the Delta
Control Panel software discussion.
MACINTOSH SOUND MANAGER INPUTS AND OUTPUTS: The
Apple Sound Manager limits the user to one stereo pair for input and one
stereo pair for output. Within your music software, the device selection
when using the Sound Manager drivers for input and output will be
“Sound Manager” both for input source and for output port.
To select the Sound Manager driver, open the Apple Menu and go to
Control Panel | Sound. For both “Sound In”and “Sound Out,” click and
highlight the Delta icon, then exit. You may select which Delta hardware
stereo input pair and stereo output pair will be used for the Sound
Manager’s Sound In and Sound Out in the Delta Control Panel
“Hardware Settings Page” (see section, “Hardware Settings Page”under
“Delta Control Panel”). Whichever stereo pair you select, the software
input and output device selection within your music program will
remain the same (i.e., “Sound Manager”).
The Delta TDIF Audio Card is by nature a multichannel card. You can see
how using only the Sound Manager drivers can be limiting. Therefore,
we recommend the use of a music program that is ASIO compliant.
ASIO DRIVER INPUT DEVICES : When using the ASIO audio drivers
with PC or Macintosh music programs that support ASIO-style audio,
the input devices are displayed as mono devices. Within ASIO software
applications, the names of the Delta TDIF audio input devices are:
TDIF In1 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In2 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In3 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In4 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In5 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In6 Delta-TDIF
TDIF In7 Delta-TDIF
