M-AUDIO Delta RBUS - Manual (Page 16)

Using the Delta R-BUS with your Music
Software Application
Once the Delta R-BUS’s hardware and driver software are properly
installed, it is ready for use with your music application software. Some
of these applications may require you to highlight or enable the Delta
R-BUS drivers within the program, and others may have a utility that
analyzes or profiles the audio cards in your system and enables the
drivers. Your software should have an audio device driver setup page, as
well as a MIDI driver setup page.
WINDOWS MME AUDIO INPUT DEVICES: All of the Delta R-BUS
card’s R-BUS inputs, plus either the Analog or S/PDIF In, may be used
simultaneously for a total of 10 input channels. Within your software
application(s), the names of the Delta R-BUS audio input devices are:
PCM In 1/2 Delta-R-BUS
PCM In 3/4 Delta-R-BUS
PCM In 5/6 Delta-R-BUS
PCM In 7/8 Delta-R-BUS
SP/ANA In Delta-R-BUS
Mon. Mixer Delta-R-BUS
The “PCM In” devices allow recording a stereo stream directly from the
specified R-BUS input pairs. The “SP/ANA In” device allows you to record
a stereo stream directly from either the Analog or S/PDIF input, as selected
in the Delta Control Panel’s Hardware Settings page (only one pair of these
inputs, analog or digital, can be used at one time, and the “active” input
must be selected in the control panel). The “Mon. Mixer” device allows
stereo recording from the digital "monitor" mixer built-into the Delta
R-BUS card. The audio data recorded from this device is the mix of input
and output streams that is set up in the Delta Control Panel software’s
Monitor Mixer (see Delta R-BUS Control Panel Software section).
Note that all of the input devices are stereo. Your application software
may break these down further to "left" and "right" mono devices.
Therefore you may see them as "Left PCM In 1/2 Delta-R-BUS, Right
PCM In 1/2 Delta-R-BUS", "Left SP/ANA In Delta-R-BUS, Right
SP/ANA In Delta-R-BUS", or "Left Mon. Mixer Delta-R-BUS, Right Mon.
Mixer Delta-R-BUS," etc. from within your recording software.
