The Patchbay / Router

In addition to the built-in Monitor Mixer, Delta 1010 also provides virtual signal patching and routing capabilities. This “Patchbay/Router” is accessed through the Control Panel software and allows a variety of sources (including your music software, the analog and digital inputs of the interface, or the Monitor Mixer output) to be linked to various physical outputs on the interface. This ﬂexible routing capability allows you to use Delta 1010 in a variety of different situations and to quickly reconﬁgure the interface without having to physically disconnect and reconnect the hardware inputs and outputs on the rear of the interface.

Synchronization

For proper operation, all digitally interconnected audio systems (including the Delta 1010 interface) must be synchronized to a single master clock. If your digital audio systems are not conﬁgured in this way, you are likely to hear clicks, pops, and other glitches in your audio streams. The Control Panel software allows you to synchronize the interface to its internal clock or to “lock” to an external clock source being received at the S/PDIF or Word Clock inputs. This allows you to easily install the Delta 1010 hardware into any kind of digital environment where S/PDIF or Word Clock are being used.

This type of cable is commonly available through computer and professional audio stores and M-Audiohas successfully tested Delta 1010 with cables up to 25 feet in length.
