M-AUDIO Delta RBUS - Manual (Page 25)

S/PDIF input on the Delta R-BUS’s breakout cable. This selection,
Analog or S/PDIF, is made in the control panel’s Hardware Settings
page (see section, “Hardware Settings Page”). The left channel of the
selection (Analog In or S/PDIF In) is routed to the left channel of
Analog Outs and S/PDIF Out and the right channel of the selection
(Analog or S/PDIF In) is routed to the right channel of Analog Outs
and S/PDIF Out.
4. The fourth option, "SP/ANA In (L/R Rev.)", functions identically to
the third option, except that the left and right channels are swapped.
Therefore in this mode, the left channel of the selected input (Analog
In or S/PDIF In) is routed to the right channel of Analog Outs and the
S/PDIF Out, and the right channel of the selected input is routed to
the left channel of Analog Outs and the S/PDIF Out.
5. Selections five through eight connect the hardware R-BUS inputs 1 &
2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, or 7 & 8 (respectively) directly to the card’s Analog and
S/PDIF Out ports. For example, if "H/W In 1/2" were selected, any
signal present at the IN1 port will be sent to the left channel of the
Analog Outs and S/PDIF Out, and any signal present at the IN2 port
will be sent to the right channel of the Analog Outs and S/PDIF Out.
This same behavior applies to "H/W In 3/4", "H/W In 5/6", and
"H/W In 7/8" when selected.
At this point, you may begin to realize the versatility of the Monitor
Mixer and the Patchbay/Router, and the relationship between the two.
You may want to re-read this section and make some practice
adjustments within the Delta Control Panel software to become proficient
in routing and mixing. If somewhere in the process you become
confused, you may always restore the default settings to use the card as
a straight 10-in 10-out device -- just choose the topmost option in each of
the Patchbay/Router columns.
Hardware Settings Page
The Hardware Settings page of the Delta Control Panel gives you control over
miscellaneous features of the Delta R-BUS PCI Audio Card. To display this
page, click the "Hardware Settings" tab of the Delta Control Panel.
MASTER CLOCK
This section allows you to select the source of the board’s master clock:
Internal Xtal (crystal), S/PDIF In, R-BUS In or R-BUS PCI. Master clock
operation is outlined in the Synchronization section of this manual.
Internal Xtal is the default setting. Be sure to select "S/PDIF In" if you
will be recording or monitoring an S/PDIF stream, or "R-BUS In" if you
wish to synchronize your digital audio with a source device that outputs
