Digital Recording System

elta 1010 is a professional audio interface with a total of 10 inputs and 10
outputs. The interface features eight 1/4” balanced/unbalanced analog inputs
and outputs as well as a pair of coaxial (RCA) S/PDIF I/O. Delta 1010 can create
pristine 24-bit recordings at sampling rates of up to 96 kHz.
Connect line-level audio sources (i.e., keyboards, mixers, preamplifiers, etc.) to the 1/4”
input jacks on the rear of the interface. Set the operating line level for each input using
the +4/-10 switch located next to each jack. Connect your DAT recorder, MiniDisc
player, or other digital device to Delta 1010’s S/PDIF ports on the PCI Host card.
Control all routing and hardware settings using the Control Panel software.
The sturdy 1U rack-mount chassis houses all of the A/D and D/A converters, keeping
them away from the electrically noisy environment inside your computer and assuring
the best audio performance. The rack unit features Word Clock I/O connectors, which
allow you to synchronize Delta 1010 with all of your other Word Clock capable devices.
Also, the interface features MIDI input and output ports, allowing you to connect MIDI-
capable devices (synthesizers, drum machines, etc.) to your computer or to synchronize
external devices with your interface using a sync protocol such as MIDI Time Code
(MTC).
Finally, the Delta 1010 PCI Host Adapter card features a flexible digital mixer. This
mixer handles routing within the interface and gives you control over volume, pan, solo,
and mute just like on a hardware mixer used for monitoring.
