Scenario 3: ProFire Lightbridge Slaved to S/PDIF Input
You may need to use a two-track device as word clock master. This is because many two-track digital devices, such
as consumer CD players, are not designed to be slaved to other devices and must be selected as the word clock
master when inputting a digital audio signal.
In Figure 3 below, the digital two-track is configured as the clock master, with ProFire Lightbridge and other devices
configured as slaves.
