DAC FUNCTIONS
CONNECTIVITY EXAMPLES
(1 x USB A-B / 2 x OPTICAL / 2 x CO-AXIAL)
This page offers suggested connectivity. With so many products
offering a number of options, it is important to check the manual of
the product you are connecting for the optimum output connection
and settings required to operate properly.
Note: This unit only accepts two-channel PCM digital audio. You
cannot connect a Dolby Digital 5.1/7.1 or a DTS signal as they will
not be recognised. If you wish to connect a DVD or similar device,
please ensure that the sound output of your player is set to two-
channel PCM.

USB SETUP & CONNECTIVITY
Connect a USB A-B type lead from the DAC USB to a USB output
on your PC.
IMPORTANT: Before you can use the USB function of the Saturn
you must first download the Rega USB Windows driver and install
it on your PC. This driver is available for download from the Rega
website, www.rega.co.uk, then go to Products, CD Players then
Saturn. Follow the instruction for installation. Once installed, USB
will be ready to use. The driver is not required for MacOS.
USB A - B lead (not supplied)
It is recommended to switch off any other system sounds emitted
by the PC via the control panel. In some systems, the DAC will
automatically become the default for your PC whilst connected.
Once disconnected, the previous default should be restored. If this
does not happen you can manually reset as follows:
Windows: Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Manage Audio
Devices > select 'Saturn' from list.
MacOS: System Preferences > Sound Output > Select 'Saturn'.
DAC FILTER SETTINGS
These settings are a matter of personal taste and offer subtle
changes. We suggest using Filter setting 1 and trying different
settings with various sources and sample rates. Each filter is
selectable via the FILTER button on the Solaris remote handset.
Filters will have a more prominent effect the higher the sample rate.
Filter settings 1 – 5 (@ low sample rates 32/44.1/48k)
1. Linear phase half-band filter
2. Minimum phase soft-knee filter
3. Minimum phase half-band filter
4. Linear phase apodising filter
5. Minimum phase apodising filter
Filter settings 1 – 5 (@ medium & high sample rates 88.2/96 &
176.4/192k)
1. Linear phase soft-knee filter
2. Minimum phase soft-knee filter
3. Linear phase brickwall filter
4. Minimum phase apodising filter
5. Linear phase apodising filter
REAR LED INDICATOR FUNCTIONS
Three LEDs are located on the back panel.
POWER - The USB takes its power from the connected computer.
This will stay on whilst connected even if the Saturn is off.
COMM - The USB input is active and communicating with the
connected computer.
DATA - This indicates data is flowing through the USB input. For
example, it will light when a track is played using a media player or
when an Internet radio station is active.
