4. Open the WSS mixer. Verify that the Volume Control fader is set loud
enough and “mute all” is not selected.
5. After verifying that your sound system is set to safe levels, start your
DAT material playing. You should immediately hear the DAT material
monitoring through the sound system. If the monitored sound is
extremely noisy, you will need to reconfigure the S/PDIF input. To do
this, open the DiO 2448 Control Panel. Change the “SPDIF-IN Format”
manually, or click the “Analyze” button and let the driver do the
configuration automatically. Once you’re happy, rewind the DAT to the
start of its material.
6. Within your recording software, select “DiO-2448 Record” as the audio
input device (see the section “Using the DiO 2448 with your Software
Application”). Also, set the sample rate to match that of your DAT
player, and set the data width to 16- or 24-bits. Most likely you will use
48kHz, 44.1kHz or 32kHz sample rates and 16-bit data widths with a
DAT machine.
7. Start your software recording and then start your DAT material playing.
You should again be able to hear the DAT material through your sound
system once more — you are now monitoring exactly what is being
recorded. Once the recording is complete, stop or pause your software
recording.
