User’s Guide ADI-2 Pro FS - v 2.5
17.6 DAC
This additional mode is a manual option and not available via Basic Mode Auto. It must be acti-
vated manually by choosing Basic Mode – DAC.
This mode simplifies operation and source selection. Using the ADI-2 Pro as a typical HiFi DAC
becomes a breeze:
¾ Simple 2 channel stereo operation
¾ Easiest switching between the sources to be monitored, like USB and SPDIF
In this mode the source selection of Main Out 1/2 also defines the clock source of the unit.
Changing SPDIF/AES the ADI-2 Pro will automatically sync to SPDIF/AES input signal, thus
working in clock mode slave. When switching to USB the unit operates in clock mode master
(USB asynchronous).
In mode DAC the AD conversion always uses the last set sample rate of USB. Phones Out 3/4
always monitor the same source signal as Main Out 1/2, but still have fully independent settings
(Vol, EQ etc).
The option Digital Out Source - Main Out (SETUP – Options – Device Mode / DSD) sends the
processed signal Main Out 1/2 also to the digital outputs AES, SPDIF and ADAT, for example to
connect active monitors having digital inputs.
