headphones. Set the line level switch in the Hardware Settings page
for the analog outputs to be compatible with that sound system’s
inputs (see section, “Hardware Settings Page”).

3. Because you will be recording from the R-BUS input, you will need to

set up the Delta R-BUS to synchronize its master clock with the R-BUS
input. To do this, open the Hardware Settings page of the control
panel software. Under Master Clock, select "R-BUS In."

4. Next, you will need to tell your application software the expected

sample rate. We’ll use 48 kHz in this example. Therefore, on the
Hardware Settings page, set the "S/PDIF Sample Rate" to 48,000.

5. In order to monitor the digital signal coming into the R-BUS, switch to

the Patchbay/Router page of the control panel software. In the "H/W
SP/ANA" column (the rightmost column), select the radio button
named "Monitor Mixer." This will allow us to bring up levels in the
monitor mixer for the R-BUS inputs, solo and mute individual tracks
for quality assurance, possibly create a ruff mix for monitoring
purposes, and send that ruff mix to the analog outputs. Once this
assignment is made, click the “Monitor Mixer” tab. You may play the
Roland multitrack material at any time and verify that its signal is
making it into the Delta R-BUS successfully. This can be done
regardless of whether or not your recording software is open.
