Default delta audio card

i have the older delta (m-audio) audiophile card using an external a/d
converter. i think the digital input on the card is fried because it won't
receive signal from the digital wire but works on the analog inputs.


You're not trying to plug a Sony DAT walkman in by any chance are you?

no, it's an analog source through a "flying calf" a/d converter.

Have you noticed the Consumer/Pro switch for digital input in the
Delta Control Panel?

IME, getting digital inputs to work is a lot tougher than getting analog
inputs to work.

Lots of things are usually up in the air, including knowing whether or not
the digital source is working properly.

The most common errror is not having the card set up properly for clocking
for the digital source.

Frankly, I've seen a lot more fried analog inputs than digital inputs.
Chances are good that the equipment is good, but the problem is how it is
set up.

Do you currently have any digital interfaces that are working properly? If
so, you can do some troubleshooting by swapping parts between the working
and non-working setups.

Other than that, you might help yourself by carefully reading the manual for
the Delta card and trying various options.

i tried all options including every virtual switch on the delta panel. i
even replaced the m-audio cable. it used to work fine and i know how it was
set up. i tested the spdif cable and the a/d box at the store and they are
fine too. maybe if i try some computer voodoo, like not paying attention to
it for a while and then going back to it, it'll work. actually i want to
upgrade to the 1010 anyway. thanks
