AES/EBU Hookup to HDR24/96 (PDI•8)

Cables & Hardware

(3)PDI•8 cards for HDR24/96

(3)PDI•8 cards for D8B

(1)Clock I/O card for D8B

(3)DB25 to DB25 AES/EBU snakes

(1)75Ω BNC word clock cable

Hookup

1.Connect the three AES/EBU cables between the corresponding AES/EBU connectors on the HDR24/96 and D8B.

2.When AES/EBU is used, the D8B must have a Clock I/O card installed. To make the D8B the clock master, connect its Word Clock Out to the HDR24/96 Word Clock In. To make the HDR24/96 the master, connect its Word Clock Out to the D8B Word Clock In.

HDR24/96 Settings

1.If the HDR24/96 is the clock master, set the Sample Clock to Internal; if it

is a clock slave, set the Sample Clock to Word Clock and depress the 75Ω termination switch on the Sync card.

2.Set the Sample Rate to 44.1kHz or 48kHz according to your preference.

Console Settings

1.If the D8B is the clock master, set the Sample Rate to either 44.1kHz or 48kHz, and set the Apogee Clock to Internal (in the Digital I/O Setup window). If it is a clock slave, then set the Apogee Clock to Word Clock. Set the Sample Rate to match the Sample Rate selected on the HDR24/96.
