Device Setting Panel

You can set such as OUTPUT MODE by using the UA-M10 device setting panel installed in your computer.
The device setting panel will be available for use after you’ve installed the dedicated driver.

Starting Up the Device Setting Panel

Access the UA-M10 device setting panel as follows.

Windows
Open “Control Panel” and change the view to “Small icons.”
Double-click the [UA-M10] icon, and then click the device settings button.
 
Mac OS X
Open the system preferences, click the [UA-M10] icon, and then click the device settings button.

Output Mode

2 channel (A:phones, B:phones)

With the factory settings, the same sound is output at the same volume from both the (Headphone) A jack and the (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack.

4 channel (A:phones, B:line out)

Choose this setting if you want to listen to headphones while sending a different signal via line out. However, the volume can be adjusted only for the (Headphone) A jack.

"NOTE"
If you play back DSD data with the 4 channel (A:phones, B:line out) setting, the B/LINE OUT jack will have no sound.

2 channel (A:phones, B:line out) [Version 2]

The same sound is output from both the (Headphone) A jack and the (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack. However, the volume can be adjusted only for the (Headphone) A jack.

2 channel (A:Right, B:Left, balanced) [Version 2]

Choose this setting if you’re using headphones with a balanced connection. The (Headphone) A jack outputs the sound of the right channel, and the (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack outputs the sound of the left channel.

"NOTE"
You must connect a 3-pole mini-type plug (balanced type) to the (Headphone) A jack and (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack. Connecting a 2-pole mini-type plug to these jacks may cause malfunctions.

D/A Conversion

This changes the 1 bit mode setting. Normally you’ll leave this turned on.
"MEMO"
Turn 1 bit mode off in the following cases.
・ If the level meter of the connection-destination moves even during times of silence.
・ If precise reproduction of the phase is the priority

Attenuate Level (line out) (*1)

If the Output Mode is set to “4 channel (A:phones, B:line out)” or “2 channel (A:phones, B:line out),” this setting lets you attenuate the signal of the (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack. Normally you will leave this set at 0 dB (no attenuation).
"NOTE"
If a device whose volume cannot be adjusted is connected to the (Headphone) B/LINE OUT jack, the sound may distort, or high volume may damage your device. If headphones are connected, high volume may damage your hearing. If you connect a device of this type, use Attenuate Level to attenuate the signal.

Playing Back DSD Audio Data

This unit can play back DSD data of 2.8 MHz or 5.6 MHz sampling rates using the DoP standard.
  1. Turn 1 bit mode on for the UA-M10.
  2. Start a playback application that supports DSD, and set it to play back using the DoP standard.
  3. *

    When playing DSD data of 2.8 MHz or 5.6 MHz, the SAMPLE RATE in the driver settings panel indicates 176400 Hz or 352800 Hz respectively.

    * 5.6 MHz DSD data is down-converted to 2.8 MHz for playback.
