Topic: How to check incoming optical signal bit depth?
Hi! I'm new, hope I'm posting in the correct forum.
I've hooked up a TASCAM MD-350 output to an RME Babyface (old generation), and I'm trying to figure out:
How do I check/display the bit depth on the signal? Using Reaper I can record at 16/20/24 bit, but I'd like to figure out what the devices have negotiated, for optimal quality.
My own googling led me to Digicheck and these forums. Unfortunately, I'm running OS X Catalina (screw you Apple for prematurely dropping 32-bit support 'just because'), and Digicheck NG doesn't yet have Bit statistics.
Is there any other way to figure this out? Would it be easier if I dug out a Windows PC?
Thanks!
