do this: Press the Recall button. When the display changes to the Recall screen, press
the Recall button again.
The display will change to:
do this: Select Store A (the default setting) with the rotary control and press the Enter
button.
A message window will appear in the display to confirm that the unit is reading
the setup. Then, when complete, the message will go away, the unit will lock
and the Unlocked LED will go out. The display then shows the status screen for
the default setup as overleaf if you have a 96 kS/s source connected to AES 1 –
otherwise the left hand number will adjust to what you have connected.
The (converted) input signal will now be available at all of the outputs.
do this: Connect the output of your choice to the input of a 44.1 kS/s recorder, DAC or
other equipment you wish to drive. It will now lock to the dCS 974.
Note that all the outputs are active when the dCS 974 is locked. They may all be
connected to external equipment simultaneously if required. Similarly, all of the
inputs may be connected as the active one will be selected by the Audio Input
Select menu.
Now you will need to familiarise yourself with how the control software and
menu system work.
do this: Read the short section on Navigating through the Menu – what the On-
Screen symbols mean, page 36 so you know how the buttons and cursor
work.
You may also find it convenient to refer to the Quick Start Guide while you are
getting to know the unit.
