Digital Mode
Layla3G and Gina3G have a
digital mode switch
that lets you set how the
hardware transmits and receives digital audio signals. The digital mode switch can
be set to S/PDIF RCA, S/PDIF optical, or ADAT optical. We’ll use Layla3G for
our examples below, but Gina3G works exactly the same.
The following is a table showing what the wave devices do for each digital mode:

ADAT 7/8
In other words, if you want to play or record using S/PDIF, set the hardware to
either “S/PDIF RCA” or “S/PDIF optical” and configure your software to use
“Layla3G 1/2 Digital”. Since S/PDIF is stereo (two channels), digital channels 3 –
8 are not used.
If you want to play or record using ADAT optical, set the hardware to “ADAT
optical” mode and configure your software to use all of the digital channels.
Please refer to the Console section of the manual for more information on digital
modes.
