[DATA IN/OUTPUT] 1-8,9-16 and 17-24 can all be used for record/playback of adat digital signals. Signals to [DATA INPUT] 1-8,9-16 and 17-24 will, re- spectively, be assigned to tracks 1-8,9-16 and 17- 24, and recorded.

At playback, the track outputs are respectively assigned from each [DATA OUTPUT] connectors in the same manner.

<Note>: Except for 96-kHz Fs adat digital signals.

<S/P DIF digital signal>

At record/playback of S/P DIF digital signals, in- put connectors [DATA INPUT] 1-8only can be used and the output ports will be [DATA OUTPUT] 1-8, 9- 16 and 17-24.

Signals input to [DATA INPUT] 1-8will be assigned and recorded in tracks 1 and 2.

At playback, signals output from track 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6 will be, respectively, assigned and out- put from [DATA OUTPUT] 1-8, 9-16and 17-24.
