This turns the UA-101s hardware limiter on/off. Even if a high-volume audio signal is suddenly received at the combo input jacks (1), this limiter will apply mild compression to prevent clipping noise from occurring before the AD converter. * Clipping noise will occur if the input exceeds the capacity of the limiter.
5. Input/output level indicators

These LEDs will light according to the level of the input signals at the combo input jacks (1) and the monitor output signals (immediately before the monitor volume). (Refer to the block diagram front cover) When signals are being input from the combo input jacks (1), these LEDs function as input level indicators. If there is no input signal for a time, the LEDs will switch to functioning as monitor output indicators. The LEDs will light red at a level immediately before distortion occurs (- 6 dB). Use the input sensitivity knobs (2) to adjust the input level so that the red LEDs do not light.
The LEDs will light red when the sound being output to the monitor output jacks reaches a level immediately before distortion (0 dB). If the LEDs light red, lower the monitor output volume in the UA-101 Control Panel (p. 38).

Front and rear panel 8. Digital input connector (optical)

Use this when you need to input a digital audio signal from a CD/MD/DAT or similar device. A digital signal input via the digital input connector is identified as audio ports EDIROL UA-101 9-10 when youre recording it into your computer. Turn the digital input switch (7) on if you want to record a digital signal. The sample rate of the input signal must match the setting of the sample rate select switch (18).
9. Digital output connector (optical)

Use this when you need to output a digital audio signal to a MD/DAT or similar digital audio device. Signals output from EDIROL UA-101 9-10, which are the audio output ports of your computer, are output from the UA-101s digital out connector.
10. Sample rate select switch

Use this to specify the sample rate at which you want to record and play back audio data. If you change the setting of this switch, you must exit all software, switch off the UA-101, then turn it back on again. You must set this to match the sample rate of the software youre using. If youre using external synchronization mode (digital input switch turned on), the sample rate of your external device must also match this setting. [Limitations when using the 192 kHz setting] The digital input connector and digital output connector cannot be used. Input jacks 7/8 and output jacks 7/8 cannot be used.
11. STEREO/MONO select switch (Direct Monitor section)

This selects whether the input signal will be monitored in stereo (STEREO) or in monaural (MONO). If you want to use monaural, turn this switch on ( pressed inward). For example, if youve connected a guitar only to INPUT 2, you would use the monaural ( pressed inward) setting. Even if this is set to monaural (MONO), the audio signal sent via USB to your computer will be stereo.
12. Direct Monitor Soft Control switch (Direct Monitor Mixer section)
Turn this on ( pressed inward) if you want to control the direct monitor mixer (block diagram front cover) using ASIO 2.0 compliant software or UA-101 Control Panel. When this switch is on, the monitor volume, pan, and on/off settings of each input jack and each output from the computer can be controlled by your software. (refer to UA-101 Control Panel (p. 38)) When this switch is off, all settings of the Direct Monitor Mixer will be ignored (i.e., bypassed), allowing you to monitor the audio inputs at all input jacks and the outputs from your computer just as they are. This provides a convenient way to temporarily ignore the software settings when you need to do things such as check the connections.
