M-Audio DIO2448 [13/24] Typical dio 2448 setup

The middle fader “Wave Output” controls the level of the WAV software

playback, prior to the master volume fader. The rightmost fader “CD

Audio” controls the monitor level of the analog CD-ROM input, again prior

to the master volume fader.

NOTE: If these three controls do not appear in the WSS mixer,

then you must go into the WSS program settings and configure

them properly. To do so, select Options | Properties from the

Volume Control menu. The Properties dialog box will then pop up.

Find the list box at the bottom named “Show the following volume

controls:” and from within this list check only the items ‘Volume

Control’, ‘Wave Output’ and ‘CD Audio’. All other items should not

be checked. Then press OK to return to the mixer page. You

should now see only the three devices.

Typical DiO 2448 Setup

Now that we’ve visited the DiO 2448 Control Panel and WSS mixer, let’s look

at a setup that involves a typical transfer of information from DAT-to-

computer and then computer-to-DAT.

NOTE: Because improper connections can potentially make very

loud noises, it’s a good idea to have monitor levels down while

hooking up audio equipment. You may even choose to have your

computer turned off before making the connections.

In this example, we’ll connect a DAT to the DiO 2448 coaxial S/PDIF input

using a coaxial cable (typically RCA-to-RCA type, 75-ohm impedance).

We’ll also hook the analog outputs of the DiO 2448 to a sound system for

monitoring purposes. A setup like this may be used if you were transferring
