M-AUDIO Delta TDIF - Manual (Page 22)

1. The default setting, "WavOut 1/2", connects TDIF ports OUT1 and OUT2 to
your music software or Windows multimedia applet. In other words, when
music software plays audio to the device named "WavOut 1/2 Delta-TDIF" it
will be routed directly to the "hardware" TDIF outputs 1 & 2 of your TDIF 25-
pin connector.
2. The second option, "Monitor Mixer", connects TDIF ports OUT1 and OUT2 to
the outputs of the Delta TDIF monitor mixer. For more information of the
capabilities of the monitor mixer, please see the section "Monitor Mixer Page".
3. The third option, "SP/ANA In", connects TDIF ports OUT1 and OUT2
directly to the hardware Analog or S/PDIF inputs on the Delta TDIF PCI host
card (whichever input is selected in the Hardware Settings page will be the
active input). The left channel of the S/PDIF In is routed to OUT1 and the
right channel of the S/PDIF In is routed to OUT2.
4. The fourth option, "SP/ANA In (L/R Rev.)", functions identically to the third
option, except that the left and right channels are swapped. Therefore in this
mode, the left channel of the Analog or S/PDIF input (as selected in the
Hardware Settings page) is routed to OUT2 and the right channel of the
Analog or S/PDIF input is routed to OUT1.
5. Selections five through eight connect the hardware TDIF inputs 1 & 2, 3 & 4,
5 & 6, or 7 & 8 (respectively) directly to the Delta card’s hardware TDIF
outputs 1 & 2. For example, if "H/W In 1/2" were selected, any signal present
at the IN1 port will be copied to OUT1, and any signal present at the IN2 port
will be copied to OUT2. This same behavior applies to "H/W In 3/4", "H/W
In 5/6", and "H/W In 7/8" when selected.
The next three vertical columns of the Patchbay/Router page (from left to
right), "H/W Out 3/4," "H/W Out 5/6," and "H/W Out 7/8," connect these
hardware TDIF outputs to one of seven sources. Since the three columns
function identically, we’ll use "H/W Out 3/4" as the example:
1. The default setting, "WavOut 3/4", connects TDIF ports OUT3 and OUT4
to your music software or Windows/Macintosh multimedia applet. In
other words, when music software plays audio to the device named
"WavOut 3/4 Delta-TDIF" it will be routed directly to the "hardware" TDIF
outputs 3 & 4 of your TDIF 25-pin connector.
2. The second option, "SP/ANA In", connects TDIF ports OUT3 and OUT4
directly to the hardware Analog or S/PDIF input on the Delta TDIF PCI
host card (whichever input is selected in the Hardware Settings page will
be the active input). The left channel of the S/PDIF input is routed to
OUT3 and the right channel of the S/PDIF input is routed to OUT4.
3. The third option, "SP/ANA In (L/R Rev.)", functions identically to the
second option, except that the left and right channels are swapped.
Therefore in this mode, the left channel of the Analog or S/PDIF input is
routed to OUT4 and the right channel of the Analog or S/PDIF input is
routed to OUT3.
