M-AUDIO DELTA 1010-AI - Manual (Page 7)

Any device that transmits or receives the ADAT optical format may be used
with the Delta 1010 ADAT Interface. Many digital mixers use this ADAT
“standard” 8-channel format, as do other computer interface cards. The audio
you wish to transfer may come from or go to devices such as these.
The Delta 1010-AI Block Diagram below gives you an overview of the signal
flow possible with your Delta 1010-AI. As shown, with all of the
Delta 1010-AI
’s switches in the “Off” position, the Delta 1010 PCI card’s
hardware outputs 1 through 8 are routed to the ADAT Optical out of the
Delta 1010-AI
in addition to the Delta 1010 analog outs 1 through 8 on the
1010’s rack mount unit “by default.” All other Delta 1010-AI modes are
bypassed. MIDI I/O simply passes through the Delta 1010-AI to the Delta
1010 rack unit.
This default setting may be useful during mixdown. If, while mixing, you use
your ADAT Out from the Delta 1010-AI to send audio to a digital mixer (for
example), the analog outs may be used as additional sends to effect units or
dynamics processors.
