Digital Audio for Computers

Video Transcript

Hi, my name is Tony Ramirez from Tampa, Florida and on behalf of Expert Village, this is Audio for your PC. How I have it set up here, actually right here, is with the breakout box. This breakout box actually has a SPDIF connection, which is your digital co-ax connection. Some type of orange cable or a golden brass end that looks just like a standard RCA cable usually marks your digital co-ax connection. This will actually plug in to either your output or your input. If you're putting, of course, digital sound into your computer, you're going to go ahead with digital in. If you're going to have it out, of course you do digital out. This will give you a purer digital signal. Gosh, really high. Up to 192K or even higher than that now. So you'll get one of your best audios through your digital audio. Another option is optical out which a lot of newer computers and a lot of cards - whether it's an internal or external card - will actually have an optical out. The optical out of course is the cable that actually shows a little red light at the end of it. So, with that cable, you can actually get full surround sound and full digital audio, whether you're inputting or if you're outputting, it doesn't matter. So, whether you're using a digital co-ax, as this one is here again, or if you're going to use an optical cable, this is the best way to get digital audio in and out of your computer.
