The Alt Src Inputs can be used to hook up alternative audio sources such as CD players
or tape decks. These can either be routed directly to the Monitor and Headphone outputs
by pressing the Alt Src to Mon switch or they can be routed to Input channels 7–8 by
pressing the Alt Src to 7–8 switch (in which case inputs 7–8 on the back panel of the Digi
002 are disabled).
If you have a DAT or CD player with S/PDIF digital outputs, you can route these through
the Digi 002’s S/PDIF digital connector to inputs 5–6, allowing you to bring a stereo
digital signal into the Digi 002. When playing audio into the Digi 002 digitally, you will
need to change the sync mode settings to S/PDIF.
Tip
Some digital audio equipment and even some personal computers such as the Mac G5
models feature optical S/PDIF inputs and outputs that you can connect directly to the
Digi 002. This can be useful when you want to play iTunes back through your main
monitors, or to set up iChat on your Mac for video conferencing over the Internet using
your main monitors instead of the Mac’s internal speakers. Don’t forget to set the sync
mode to Word Clock, set the S/PDIF inputs to Optical, and set up the routing for the
S/PDIF inputs to Digi 002 inputs 5–6 first. You can access these settings in Standalone
mode by pressing the F1 Utility button, choosing Preferences by pressing the
corresponding Channel Select button, and pressing the appropriate Channel Select
buttons to access the desired settings.
