1 Connecting The System

Audio Connections

Audio connections should be made as shown in the diagram below. Toslink optical cables must be connected both from ADAT Out port A of the Dakota card to the ADAT In port A of the 328 and vice versa, and from ADAT Out port B of the Dakota card to the ADAT In port B of the 328 and vice versa. 75Ω Coaxial digital S/PDIF cables must also be connected from the Dakota S/PDIF output to the 328 S/PDIF input and vice versa.

In this configuration, the ADAT connections allow digital transfer of either direct outputs from the 328’s input channels 1-8 to the Dakota card, or the 328’s 8 Group outputs. The S/PDIF output from the console can be assigned to either the Mix output or to 1 of 3 stereo auxiliary outputs (Aux 1/2, Aux 3/4, FX 1/2, Groups 1-8 and Control Room). The 328 S/PDIF Input can be configured as a digital Stereo Input or as a digital 2 Track Return.
