My studio uses an RME Raydat PCIe card, and I was looking through its documentation. It doesn't say "TTL" anywhere, but it can toggle between a "Consumer" and "Professional" level spdif output. The "professional" say it is 2.3 Vpp. Does that sound like I should be able to run that directly into the BIII?

Also, if I ran that signal into the Sinlge spdif level converter first, is there a chance it would damage the spdif converter board and/or the BIII?

Thanks in advance!

It would not cause damage.

S/PDIF (consumer and AES/EBU (aka "Pro")), is like an AC signal, meaning it goes from positive to negative relative to ground. TTL S/PDIF is always positive relative to it's ground.

The ES9018 requires TTL. The converter takes the consumer/pro and outputs TTL.


NOTE: I know S/PDIF isn't a sine-wave, it's just for illustrative purposes :)
