Transferring from DAT to Computer

1. Connect the DAT’s coaxial S/PDIF output to the S/PDIF In of the

Delta R-BUS breakout cable, using a good quality digital cable.

2. Connect the Delta R-BUS’s analog outputs to some type of amplified

sound system. The sound system should be equipped with speakers
or headphones. The line level output settings in the Delta Control
Panel’s “Hardware Settings” page may be set to be compatible with
that sound system’s inputs.

3. Because you will be recording from the S/PDIF input, you will need

to set up the Delta R-BUS to synchronize its master clock with the
S/PDIF input. To do this, open the Hardware Settings page of the
control panel software. Under Master Clock, select "S/PDIF In." You’ll
also need to select the S/PDIF as the chosen input source for SP/ANA
(thereby deselecting the Analog input).

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

sample rate. We’ll use 44.1 kHz in this example. Therefore, on the
Hardware Settings page, set the "S/PDIF Sample Rate" to 44,100.
