Multichannel WAVE Files

2 channels of WAVE recording and 8 channels of multichannel WAVE playback are supported. The WAVE channels are available for the following types of WDM devices:

•Classic MME

•DirectSound

•Direct WDM / Kernel Streaming (KS)

DirectSound and the WDM/KS interfaces allow up to Eight channels of Wave Out while the classic MME interface only exposes 2 channels.

The WAVE channels operate at all sample rates. For additional information about WDM behavior at high sample rates, see “WDM Recording and Playback Behavior”.

192kHz/96kHz DVD-Audio disks are protected against digital copying. However, most DVD-Audio disks contain duplicate 48kHz audio tracks which will play back on the Digital Audio System.

Windows Media Player/DVD/Surround Sound Playback

Select DirectSound as the output format when using Windows Media Player and other DVD player applications.

Eight channel WAVE playback supports 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 surround audio.

The chart below shows how to connect the outputs for surround sound playback. Use outputs 1-3 for 5.1 surround; use outputs 1-4 for 7.1 surround.
