DSP Configurations
The PCM96 Surround processor can be divided in up to four virtual machines, each of which can run its own algorithm. This lets you route sig- nals from each input through a variety of algorithm combinations.
The PCM96 Surround can use up to six physical inputs and six physical outputs at a time; configurations for the physical inputs and outputs are described below. The software
When using the PCM96 Surround in one of its surround modes, it is critical to know how audio is routed to the algorithm. This applies both to the way IO connects with the outside world and the way the signals are distributed within the algorithm.
The inputs and outputs relate to the following cables:

Preset availability within the various surround con- figurations
In almost all cases, a surround preset is usable in any surround configuration, whether four or
