JP2
NextGen with Avid Delay Matching
and Filter Selection

Important information regarding BDA8 latency:
The BDA8 uses jumpers on “JP2” (as shown on cover) to adjust 2 variables: DAC lter
selection, and Avid HDIO delay matching.
Jumper Settings for “JP2”
Jumper A - DAC Filter Setting: In default mode with no jumpers set (Image 1), the BDA8
uses the Short Delay Filter with the classic “Burl Sound”. A jumper on A(Image 2) will
switch to the Long Delay Filter, with longer delay and a more forward mid-range.
Jumper B - Avid Delay Matching: In default mode, there is no added delay. Setting a
jumper on B(Image 3) will increase delay to match the output delay of an Avid HDIO.

176.4k, 192k with the Long Delay Filter, use Hardware Insert Delay in Pro Tools.
