How do I use the digital output?

Digital Output
For digital output, youÕll need either the sampling option or the digital I/O (KDS) option. In
either case, the digital output of the K2600 (a single stereo pair) is wired in parallel with output
pair A. It gets whatever signal is routed to Output A on the OUTPUT page of the Studio Editor.
With the digital I/O option, you can use the XLR or optical outputs, or the separate KDS outputs
(although this requires the Kurzweil DMTi digital interface for full functionality). With the
sampling option, you can use the XLR or optical outputs.
The sampling option also enables you to sample the K2600Õs own output.
1. On the Sample-mode page, set the Input parameter to Analog, and the Src parameter to
Int. This routes the signal at the K2600Õs Mix outputs to the analog sampling input,
ignoring the external sampling inputs on the rear panel.
2. Set the Input parameter to Digital, then set the Out parameter, if available, to A/D. This
causes the digital outputs to mirror the signal coming from the K2600Õs Mix outputs. (Set
the Out parameter to Dir to mirror the Output A signal at the digital outs.)
Note: If you donÕt have the Digital I/O option, you wonÕt see the Out parameter, which means that
the digital output mirrors the K2600Õs Mix outputs.
When the Input parameter is set to Analog and the Src parameter is set to Ext, the signal that
appears at the digital output is the signal coming into the K2600Õs external analog inputs, and the
K2600 is acting as a very fancy, very high-quality A/D converter.
