Overview
The 9341 is a high quality A to D converter capable of converting up to 8 channels of analog audio into four pairs of AES audio. Analog audio is differential input and sampled at 48 kHz with 0 dbFS digital equivalent to a +24 dBu analog.
Beyond analog to digital conversion, the 9341 can also provide AES audio routing. Any of the 8 analog audio inputs can be mapped to any of the 8 AES audio outputs. The gain and phase can also be adjusted on any of the audio channels.
All card configuration is done with a simple front panel menu. There is a four character text display to view and control parameters, and a toggle switch and two buttons to navigate the menu.
