Echo Audio Layla - SAW Compatibility Mode; Show Echo Console on the Taskbar

40
Layla’s S/PDIF output defaults to the Professional mode. If you are
recording from Layla into a consumer DAT deck, the deck may not be able
to recognize the signal until you switch Layla’s output to Consumer mode.
We have provided a software switch in the Layla driver that allows you to
select which mode Layla transmits. In the window that appears you’ll see a
pair of check boxes in an area labeled
S/PDIF Output
Setting: one box is
labeled
Consumer
and the other
Professional
. Select the appropriate
mode for your DAT (if you don’t know which one to use and are having
difficulties, simply try the one that is not currently checked).
Important note: Layla never transmits the SCMS bit, regardless of which
mode is selected.
SAW Compatibility Mode
When using Layla with the Software Audio Workshop (SAW) program
from Innovative Quality Software, there are some special considerations
that must be accommodated by the Layla driver. SAW expects an equal
number of inputs and outputs on Layla. For SAW compatibility, the driver
creates a non-functional mirror of input channels 7 and 8 (making an equal
number of ins and outs). To insure that Layla will operate properly with
SAW, check the box labeled
SAW Compatibility Mode
. (Note: This
option should
only
be checked when Layla is being used with the SAW
application.)
Show Echo Console on the Taskbar
The last selection on the
Settings
screen allows you to determine whether
the Echo Console program will occupy a space on the Windows taskbar (the
“L” in the bottom right-hand corner of the Windows desktop).
Checking this option enables this feature, unchecking it disables it.
