RE: Direct Optical mode - How to - tomsag - 24-Sep-2020 May I ask why is the interest in this mode so strong? Will it give any advantage to sound quality or is it just a convenience story?

For home theater use cases you need to reduce the latency so that the sound matches the picture.

The appropriate channel is selected as part of the procedure. Check out post #1. Nb - You should consider this mode as a way of changing the speakers to be 'dumb' active speakers.

Are you sure it is working the same with DOS2?

I think the Reactors have support this for a while now. Because the process involved pressing the buttons at the top of the speaker, it wasn’t a viable process on the classic or gold phantom: https://devialetchat.com/Thread-Optical-Direct-for-Reactors?pid=85298#pid85298 RE: Direct Optical mode - How to - jcd1877 - 25-Sep-2020 (24-Sep-2020, 23:48)aryelevin Wrote:(24-Sep-2020, 23:14)alandbush Wrote:(24-Sep-2020, 21:06)ragwo Wrote: That's a really interesting question! If someone has the answer, please enlighten us. Would be interested to understand this in DOS2 as well. In DOS1, you switch to direct mode via the Spark App. During the process you select L/R. Once the speaker is in Direct Mode, it no longer appears in the Spark App. But, it sounds like in DOS2, the Direct Mode is selected via button presses at the speaker. So are the speakers still visible in the DOS2 App after the speaker has been set to direct mode? If not visible, how is L/R selected?

I am a DJ and wanted to use my phantoms premier as near field monitors. Direct Optical should make it possible to mix, which is almost impossible with 60ms-190ms.

Check out post #1. Correction: Direct optical mode is achieved using the Devialet Phantom Remote application and NOT Spark. Once converted, the Phantom speakers can no longer be controlled by Spark. As mentioned previously the Phantom speakers become 'dumb', only playing audio presented via optical by an outside hardware source. |
