Motu 828 MKIII Dolby Digital out

Post by jomi »

Hi!

The Motu 828 MKIII can send a bitstream data from SPDIF out?
I want to buy one and this is important to. Does anybody know?

I would like use the card also to see some movies on Mac that are Dolby Digital or DTS encoded.
Connect the SPDIF out to my NAD receiver and enjoy surround sound movies ;)

It might, but you'll definitely have to leave it at unity gain with no processing in CueMix. It should pass bit transparently then that way. It really depends on your playback software though, if it has the option and can pass it to the SPDIF output, which you can probably choose in Windows Sound panel.
