Can you connect to a USB power supply and use the analog to S/PDIF output?

USB gets power from computer and is the bus through which the sound driver ports pc audio to the device. It's not a stand alone AD/DA. Works best as an ext sound card

I don't know about the S/PDIF but I suspect it won't work very well. I tried using the analog in to headphone jack using a USB power supply and it sounded terrible. I thought it would be a way around having to use a computer and it didn't work. Once I plugged the UCA222 into a laptop instead of a power supply it sounded way better.

I recommend using a dedicated analog to S/PDIF, or analog to tos-link interface.,(depending on your setup). Although i haven't used the UCA222 in this manner, You may end up losing a nice audio interface, or at best, having degraded audio, (if this type of configuration would work at all).

The power is supplid when pluged into a usb port in a computer(desktop or laptop) and then is used to record it the computer.Works great

No. If you want to run it using AC power, you'll need a Roland PSB-1U or compatible AC adapter (DC Output: 9V, 2A, round plug with negative center). You can buy compatible AC adapters here at Amazon for less than $10. I use a T-Power AC adapter.

Something like these for the analogue audio http://www.amazon.com/Emotiva-MRCA-1-0-RCA-Cable/dp/B00DMI06B0/ref=sr_1_416?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1394099870&sr=1-416&keywords=rca+cable If you are using the SPDIF via coax, something like this http://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-102681-Quality-Digital-Coaxial/dp/B001V52PSI/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1394100005&sr=1-5&keywords=digital+coax+cable If you are using the SPDIF via optical, something like this http://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Toslink-Digital-Connectors/dp/B004CANMCM/ref=sr_1_10?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1394100154&sr=1-10&keywords=toslink+optical+cable

I do not have such and I also use RCA input. Please check first if something affecting wires, in my case I had issues with power adapter for notebook, I had to replace it with other one.

Yes, but you'll need an external ADC. Two inputs are analog, two are digital.

No, there is not a good, smart or inexpensive way to convert USB "output" to MIDI. You should find a product that comes with a conventional MIDI out port such as Alesis Q49.

No. Your single female RCA S/PDIF output is a digital coax output. It's won't work plugged into a analog RCA input. You should have either a RCA digital coax input or a optical input on your sound bar for receiving digital audio. Alternatively, you can just plug in a pair of stereo RCA cables from the TV to the sound bar. Otherwise, you would need to use something like a SPDIF to analog converter.

No. You would need a digital to analog converter to connect to the amp from a digital source. They are relatively inexpensive, google should find some for you.

Note that I purchased this unit to be able to run the lone audio out (SPDIF) from my new TV into my older integrated Amp (RCA inputs only). The converter's input is SPDIF or Coaxial, output analog RCA and 3.5mm headphone. Not sure how you wish to configure from your question, can you provide more detail, please?

No. That would be an analog system and these are digital. You could use the NTSC test output perhaps if you are thinking of upgrading to HD-SDI in the future, but the quality is not that great.

Hi Scott yes you can. you may need to use the built in phono pre=amp to do it, but it should work, try it with the usb first
1709506
Yes you can, you only have to make sure to have the compatible SMPTE signal from the source. Best Regards

Cant exactly understand your question, if using without computer where do you take input signal from? This device has only VGA input (no rca input) One thing i can tell for sure: without usb power supply device doesn't work at all.

There is NO USB input on this amplifier. There are 2 analog RCA inputs. You would need a separate DAC unit to go between this and your source component.

It takes RCA and 1/8" trs, so there's no way to go right in from USB. You'd need a separate DAC if USB is your only option.

No. This device only powers the Mic. (certain mics require phantom power). Use an M_Audio Fastract to convert your analogue signal to digital and connect to your computer.

I plugged into the usb input of my windows 8 laptop and it automatically installed the drivers (plug and plan). I have not tried the RCA analog outputs since I am connecting a headphone. From the manual the volume control for the output only works for the headphone jack. When using the RCA output you have thru adjust volume thru your amp.With the USB input, resolution is a maximum of 24 bit 96Hz
