Step 3 - Setting a Conversion
do this: If you need bit-for-bit operation in a different output format, proceed to the
Format Conversion section.
do this: If you want to change the sample rate or the word length or process the data in
some other way, proceed to the Sample Rate Conversion section.

Figure 3 – Pure Format Conversion
do this: Press the
button, scroll down to Format Conversion , press the
button
and press the Set button. This sets Pure Format Conversion to On and
disables the Sample Rate Conversion menu.
do this: If the “Fs In not Fs Out” information box appears on the display, press the Set
button to make the Output Sample Rate match the Input Sample Rate.
do this: Scroll down the Format Conversion menu to Output Mode and press the
button. The cursor should be beside Normal. Choose one of the settings from
the following list, scroll to it and press Set:
Normal. The Input & Output Sample Rate must not be higher than
96kS/s. Bit-for-bit data will be available on all of the AES, SPDIF or SDIF-2
outputs.
Dual AES. The Input & Output Sample Rate must be 88.2, 96, 176.4 or
192kS/s. Dual AES bit-for-bit data will be available on the AES 1 / AES 2
output pair and the AES 3 / AES 4 output pair. Do not use the other outputs.
Quad AES. The Input & Output Sample Rate must be 176.4 or 192kS/s.
Quad AES bit-for-bit data will be available on the AES 1, AES 2, AES 3 and
AES 4 output group. Do not use the other outputs.
DSD SDIF-2. The Audio Input Select setting must be DSD or DSD Quad.
DSD SDIF-2 bit-for-bit data will be available from the DSD/SDIF outputs
(lower block) and DSD Quad data from the AES 1, AES 2, AES 3 and AES
4 output group. Do not use the other outputs.
DSD SDIF-3. The Audio Input Select setting must be DSD or DSD Quad.
DSD SDIF-3 bit-for-bit data will be available from the DSD/SDIF outputs
(lower block) and DSD Quad data from the AES 1, AES 2, AES 3 and AES
4 output group. Do not use the other outputs.
do this: Proceed to Step 4.
