transmitting device is paused.

Mode - Select “Consumer” to send information in S/PDIF format. Select “Professional” to send information in AES format.

Confidence Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates the PCM96 is detecting excessive jitter or noise on the digital audio line. No data has been corrupted, but corrective action should be taken.

Sample Slip - An unchanging number indicates you are not slipping samples. An increasing number indicates samples are misaligned with the window defined by the Input Source. This may occur when an external master changes sample rate, or when it is just powering up, but should not occur in normal operation.

Bi-Phase Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates that at least one bit (and therefore at least one audio sample) was corrupted.

CRC Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates a Cyclic Redundancy Check error in the incoming data.

Parity Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates that at least one bit (and therefore at least one audio sample) was corrupted.

Machine Config

The Machine Config menu lets you configure the PCM96 processor as one, two, three, or four virtual machines in a new preset. Note that once you’ve selected a configuration, you must then populate each virtual machine with a Machine Preset (see page 11 for more information).

Choices include:

Single Mono In Stereo Out

Single Stereo

Dual Mono

Cascade Stereo

Cascade Mono

Cascade Mono to Stereo

Combined Stereo Mono In

For more detailed descriptions of each configuration, see page 14.

MIDI Control

The MIDI Control sub-menu lets you adjust the following MIDI-related options:

MIDI

Turns MIDI processing on or off.

Device ID

Select the connected MIDI device’s ID here. Choose from 0-126.

Base Channel

Select the connected MIDI device’s base channel here. Choose from 0-15.
