Note about transmission modes
This unit connects using HIGH SPEED asynchronous mode.
The sampling frequencies that can be transmitted are 44.1 kHz,
48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 192 kHz and 352.8 kHz.
2.8MHz, 5.6MHz and 11.2MHz DSD are also supported.
o 11.2MHz DSD is only supported with DSD Native playback. It is not
supported with DoP (DSD Audio over PCM Frames) playback.
If the proper connection has been made, you should be able to
select “ESOTERIC USB AUDIO DEVICE” as the computer's audio output.
In asynchronous mode, the audio data sent from the computer will
be processed using this unit's clock, enabling the amount of jitter that
occurs during data transmission to be reduced.
