3 - PCI Card & Interfaces<br />
The E-MU 1010 PCI Card<br />
The E-MU 1010 PCI card is the heart of the system and contains E-MU’s powerful<br />
E-DSP chip. The powerful hardware DSP on this card leaves more power free on your<br />
CPU for additional software plug-ins and other tasks.<br />
Important<br />
When the MicroDock is connected to the 1010 PCI card, the digital I/O on the PCI<br />
card is disabled. Use the digital I/O on the MicroDock.<br />

EDI Connector<br />
Connects to the MicroDock using the supplied EDI<br />
cable. This cable provides a a two-way data link<br />
between the E-MU 1010 and the MicroDock as well<br />
as supplying power to the MicroDock.<br />
S/PDIF Digital Audio <strong>Input</strong> & Output<br />
RCA phono jacks are standard connectors used for<br />
S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital InterFace) connections.<br />
Each jack carries two channels of digital audio.<br />
The E-MU 1010 receives digital audio data with word<br />
lengths of up to 24-bits. Data is always transmitted at<br />
24-bits.<br />
S/PDIF digital I/O can be used for the reception and/<br />
or transmission of digital data from external digital<br />
devices such as a DAT external analog-to-digital<br />
converter or an external signal processor equipped<br />
with digital inputs and outputs.<br />
The S/PDIF out can be configured in either Professional<br />
or Consumer mode in the Session Settings<br />
menu. The 1010 PCI card can also send and receive<br />
AES/EBU digital audio through the use of a cable<br />
adapter. See “AES/EBU to S/PDIF Cable Adapter” for<br />
details.<br />
The S/PDIF input and outputs are usable at the<br />
44.1kHz, 48kHz 88.2kHz and 96kHz sample rates,<br />
but are disabled for 176.4kHz and 192kHz. The<br />
word clock contained in the input data stream can be<br />
used as a word clock source. See “System Settings”.<br />
ADAT Optical Digital <strong>Input</strong> & Output<br />
The ADAT optical connectors transmit and receive 8 channels of 24-bit audio using the<br />
ADAT type 1 & 2 formats. The word clock contained in the input data stream can be<br />
used as a word clock source. See “System Settings”. Optical connections have certain<br />
advantages such as immunity to electrical interference and ground loops. Make sure to<br />
use high quality glass fiber light pipes for connections longer than 1.5 meters.<br />

The E-MU 1010 PCI Card<br />
Important: When<br />
using any type of digital<br />
I/O such as S/PDIF or<br />
ADAT, you MUST sample<br />
sync the two devices or<br />
clicks and pops in the<br />
audio will result.<br />
