As far as I know, in pre/pros you can by-pass all the digial circuits meaning that the signal will go in analog and go out analog, that happens when you use the DAC in your CDP using RCA cables out. Now, if you use a digital or Coax cable, you will send a digital signal to your pre/pro and will use it's own DAC's, see which one you like more and go for it.
As for your question...I'm not sure, my inexperienced mind would think that it is analog when you're using it as a Pre shuting off all the digital circuits and digital when it's processing video signals i.e.: Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.
