Switching a digital I/O card’s SRC on/off

LS9-16/32 Owner’s Manual

If a digital I/O card with SRC (Sampling Rate Converter) functionality (such as the MY8-AE96S)

is installed in the slot {slot 1/2}, you can use the SLOT SETUP popup window to turn the card’s

SRC on/off. In this window you can also check the operating status of the I/O card(s) installed in

the slot(s).

1In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the

[SETUP] key repeatedly to access the SYS-

TEM SETUP screen.

1SLOT SETUP button

2Move the cursor to the SLOT SETUP button

of the MIXER SETUP ﬁeld in the lower part

of the screen, and press the [ENTER] key.

The SLOT SETUP popup window will appear, allow-

ing you to make slot-related settings. This popup win-

dow contains the following items.

1Card type {Card type / Slot number}

This area shows the type of I/O card installed in the

slot. {On the LS9-32, this area shows the slot number

and the type of I/O card in each slot.}

BFREQ (Frequency)

This indicates the sampling frequency of the signal

being input to each channel of an MY8-AE96 or

MY8-AE96S digital I/O card, in sets of two channels.

CSRC buttons

For digital I/O cards that contain a built-in SRC (Sam-

pling Rate Converter), the SCR can be switched on/off

in groups of two channels.

DEMPHASIS

This area indicates whether emphasis processing is

applied to the input signals of a slot in which an AES/

EBU format digital I/O card is installed, in units of

two channels.

This indication is displayed as follows.

3To turn on the SRC that is built-into the dig-

ital I/O card, move the cursor to the corre-

sponding SRC button and press the

[ENTER] key.

The SRC can be turned on/off in units of two channels.

For channels whose SRC is turned on, input/output

can occur correctly even if the input signal is not syn-

chronized with the LS9’s clock source.

4To close the WORD CLOCK popup window,

move the cursor to the CLOSE button (or

the × symbol in the upper right) and press

the [ENTER] key.

You will return to the SYSTEM SETUP screen.
