Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike basic spectrum analyzers, the DL1 analyzes digital audio signals at the bit level, revealing issues like clock drift and data errors that wouldn’t be visible otherwise.
Yes, the dual-domain monitor allows you to hear the signal directly alongside the visual analysis, instantly identifying distortion or other audible artifacts related to the measured data.
While primarily designed for AES3, S/PDIF, TOSlink, and ADAT, the core analysis functions can be adapted to other formats with appropriate signal conditioning and interpretation.
