Gary - Good point, this is from the firmware 8.1 Release Notes. I didn't realize that it is not supported via AIR ( certainly not in these notes )
"Thus, from a bandwidth point of view, it is technically feasible to carry an audio DSD stream over a High Definition capable PCM digital input. The entire Expert range is now compatible with the DoP protocol (DSD over PCM). This new feature is available through the USB input but also on the digital XLR input (AES/EBU), the TOSLINK optical input and all coaxial digital inputs (S/PDIF). A completely unique feature."
Well off to see how DSD->PCM conversion does....
