What is your source? a pc with s/pdif out? if so, how do you configure the s/pdif to bypass the onboard sound? I've got an asus mobo with s/pdif port and I'm planning to buy a modi multibit but not sure how to pair it up with the modi, I'm kinda newbie in s/pdif connection
I have an older Asus P7P55D mobo, which has a SPDIF output. This uses the VIA HD audio chipset.
I needed to enable the SPDIF output using the VIA HD Audio Deck utility. Once enabled the SPDIF output is concurrent with the regular 3.5mm audio jack in the rear panel and front panel. In this sense I'm not sure if the SPDIF output bypasses the onboard VIA sound chip or not. I also note that the SPDIF output was fixed at either 48kHz or 96kHz (these are the only 2 options given in the utility).
