Using the MV8-OP1 (Audio I/O
Expansion) to connect external devices
You can install an MV8-OP1 Audio I/O Expansion (sold separately) into the rear panel
of the MV-8000. The MV8-OP1 is an expansion kit for the MV-8000 that adds digital
audio input and allows internal audio buses to be output via R-BUS.
If the MV8-OP1 is installed
Installing the MV8-OP1 adds the following functionality.
• You can digitally connect a digital audio device (CD player, MD player, DAT
recorder) and sample without impairing the audio quality.
• You can input digital audio of a variety of sampling frequencies.
• You can connect devices that have an R-BUS connector, such as the Roland
VS-2480CD or XV-5080, for digital audio input/output via R-BUS (2-channel input
/ 8-channel output).
• You can individually output the audio signals of the MV-8000's internal multi
output bus. This is convenient when you are using the MV-8000 with an external
mixer. (Analog output and R-BUS output are all available.)
• When used with the DIF-AT24 (sold separately), an additional MIDI OUT (16
channels) is added.
You can't do the following
• You cannot use DIGITAL IN A (coaxial) and B (optical) simultaneously.
• You cannot use DIGITAL IN, ANALOG INPUT, and R-BUS input simultaneously.
• You cannot input signals other than two-channel PCM audio (e.g., DTS or Dolby
Surround) to DIGITAL IN.
• You cannot use R-BUS to input eight channels of digital audio (only R-BUS
channels 1 and 2 are available).
• You cannot sample the input at its original sampling frequency. All signals are
converted to 44.1 kHz.
• You cannot input MIDI data using the MIDI IN of the DIF-AT24 (sold separately).
The MV8-OP1 (sold
separately) must be installed in
order for you to perform the
operations described in this
chapter.
Since the MV8-OP1 contains a
sampling rate converter, there
is no limitation on the
sampling frequencies that can
be input. All signals will be
converted to 44.1 kHz.
Do not connect the R-BUS
connector to an RMDB
connector, a SCSI
connector, an RS-232C
connector, or a parallel
connector. Doing so will
cause malfunctions.
Do not connect or
disconnect the R-BUS
connector when the power
is on. Doing so will cause
malfunctions.
