1 - Analog Out

Balanced analog outputs on 1/4” TRS jacks. The level of the outputs is controlled by the monitor level control knob on the front panel.

2 - AES/EBU inputs

Female XLR connectors for up to 8 AES channels.

3 - AES/EBU outputs

Male XLR connectors for up to 8 AES channels.

4 - SPDIF I/O Upper row:

- RCA connectors for 8 input channels of SPDIF

Lower row:

- RCA connectors for 8 output channels of SPDIF

5-8 ADAT/Toslink I/O connectors

The optical connections carry either Toslink (optical SPDIF) or ADAT signal.

ADAT:

-At normal sample rate 8 channels of ADAT is carried on a single lightpipe. Use the MAIN connector.

-At double sample rate 8 channels of ADAT is distributed on 2 lightpipe connectors. Use both the MAIN and the 96 kHz connections.

Toslink:

-Digital Konnekt x32 handles up to 6 input channels and 4 output channels of optical SPDIF via Toslink. Input for Toslink channels 5/6 is located on the front.

9 - Firewire

Firewire connection for connecting Digital Konnekt x32 to a computer and/or linking up to 4 units.

10 - Wordclock Out

Due to the DICE II chip, Digital Konnekt x32 can act as an excellent master clock generator for you setup. Connect via standard BNC plugs.

Beware that the Word Clock signal is not standardized. Some Word Clock receivers are known to fail when the peak-to-peak signal exceeds 3 Volt, and others are known to require at least 4 Volt, making it impossible to design a Word Clock driver guaranteed to operate with all receivers. Digital Konnekt x32 send 1.7V PP.

11 - Wordclock In

Connect your external wordclock generator here and select “WCK in on the front panel.
