Hello, support.
Today I found my network bridge displayed like below.
I have checked cable connection and its rate status check with DAC but network bridge does not accept the clock like 44.1.
Is there any solution for this ?
About one month ago, input 1 worked normally.
Thank you and best regards.
It would help is if you told us which wordclock and which DAC you are using.
Hello, PAR.
Thanks for your reply.
Clock distributor is Mutec MC3+USB and DAC is Vivaldi DAC.
I will check my Mutec and cable. Tomorrow I will report its result.
Thank you and best regards.
Thanks for your response. As the wordclock is one from a third party manufacturer I am unfamiliar with it. However I would guess that the reason Mosaic reports what you find is that the Mutec is not generating 44.1 kHz from the one of the four BNC outputs or it has been misconnected or selected at the Mutec end. Please re-check. I wonder how you checked the clock rate with Vivaldi DAC? That shows the sample rate of the data ( not clock) rate it is processing.
Hi PAR.
Thanks so much for your help.
I rechecked the cable connections and found that the connections were not working properly.
I reconnected the cable to the proper socket and now it works fine.
You can check it with clock icon like W1, W2.I wonder how you checked the clock rate with Vivaldi DAC? That shows the sample rate of the data ( not clock) rate it is processing.
Thank you very much.
All that the W1 or W2 icon on the DAC tell tells you is that the W1 or W2 input to the DAC has been selected. It does not indicate the frequency which is feeding that input even if it is 0. If you had a Vivaldi clock you would find that any available frequency can be allocated to either output group irrespective of its nomenclature as W1 or 2.
Hello, PAR.
Thanks for your comment.
I have set this setting in the DAC and DAC indicated automatically its clock rate like 44.1 or 48.
Thank you and best regards.
I am afraid that you have not done this. Please read the Vivaldi Clock passage that you quoted above carefully. This says " this mode is designed for easy operation with a Vivaldi Clock" . You do not have a Vivaldi clock and therefore cannot follow these instructions exactly. I guess that you have worked out an equivalent with Muted however.
It is as I said.The important thing to understand is that W1 or W2 indicate the DAC wordclock group input selected, not the frequency being supplied to the port. So if the connection is incorrect (for example), DAC will still display W1 even if the frequency supplied to it is something other than 44.1.
Hello, PAR.
Thank you for your advice and information.
I guess that you have worked out an equivalent with Mutec however.
Yes, I use two Mutec MC3+USB units, one for 44.1 kHz and the other for 48 kHz.
This says “this mode is designed for easy operation with a Vivaldi Clock.”
If you know, which sync mode is best for me?
Thank you and best regards.
Sample rates are not a matter of choice but are either correct or incorrect. To be correct the sample frequency has to match that of the source material or be a mathematical integer. So this means that if you only play CD, SACD or DSD files the output of your Mutec wordclock should be 44.1. You would conventionally connect DAC wordclock input group 1 to this output. This also is correct for other streamed files of 88.2, 176.4 and multiples. If you listen to PCM streamed files of 48, 96, 192 384 kHz frequency or internet radio with a 48kHz frequency you also connect Mutec output for 48 kHz to wordclock group 2 input of the DAC.
So, as you change media you need to manually select W1 or W2 as the source frequency changes.
Vivaldi DAC senses the input frequency and can change the selection of W1 or W2 input automatically if you use Vivaldi clock. However if your Mutec can output 44.1 and 48 simultaneously it is feasible that you could select DAC Sync as Auto. However I am unsure from my brief reading of the Mutec manual if it can do this. As you have two units ( one used fro 44.1, one 48) then I would suggest trying Auto with the above connections to wordclock group 1 or 2 because manually changing the configuration each time the source changes is exhausting especially if streaming, say, Qobuz , where all you know is if the files are CD or High-res but without detail ( until they are playing).
Hi, PAR.
Thanks for your advice.
I will try it as an Auto sync.
Thank you and best regards.
Actually Pete, there’s no command & control signal between the Vivaldi Clock and the rest of the Vivaldi stack.
With the Vivaldi DAC set to “Word Clock 1-2 Auto”, it won’t care where the two Clocks come from - whether a Vivaldi Master Clock, or from two Mutec - the DAC will still automatically select the appropriate Clock.
I was trying to say that but maybe I didn’t write as clearly as I would like. Past my bedtime here
