Figure 14 – Upsampling a CD to 24 bit / 192kS/s

do this: Set the dCS 972 Input Frequency to Auto, Output Frequency to 192kS/s, Output Mode to Dual AES, Sync Source to Word Clock.

do this: Set the dCS 954 to Dual AES on AES1 & 2, Mute to Off and select a filter.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT lock the dCS 954 to the dCS 992 or the audio output will be full scale noise!

The Master Clock is optional – it helps reduce jitter. If you don’t have a Master Clock, you can slave the dCS 972 to the CD player by setting Sync Source to Audio Input.
