Chapter 3: DM714 and MD704 Converters

3.1 Features

AES/EBU and Word Clock external sync inputs on both units provide synchronization to
digital systems. Sample Rate S ource and Sample Rate are automatically sensed by both
units. Supported sample rates include 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 kHz. In addition, pull-up
and pull-down rates for the standard sample rates, as well as custom sample rates are
available.
Four-segment front panel LEDs monitor the input/output signal strength. LED meter
segments indicate -42, -18, -6 (green) and -0.005 dBFS (red).
The analog inputs and outputs can be calibrated from the front panel of each unit.

3.2 Applications

The DM714 and MD704 can be used as 24-channel digital interfaces in a Euphonix
digital system or other situations requiring digital to MADI conversion. These devices
allow recording or transferring to/from digital devices that are not compatible with
MADI but have an AES/EBU interface.
NOTE: MADI cables can be extended to 50 m (164 ft), allowing remote location of the
converters.
