1Power In

Mains power in. Studio Konnekt 48 uses a switch- mode power-supply that accepts from 100 to 240VAC.

2Word Clock In

If you want to sync to an external word clock generator, connect it to WCK In using BNC connectors and select “Word Clock” as sync source on the System Settings page.

3Word Clock Out

Due to the DICE II chip, Studio Konnekt 48 can act as an excellent master clock generator for you setup. Connect via standard BNC plugs.

Beware that the Word Clock signal is not standardized. Some Word Clock receivers are known to fail when the peak-to-peak signal exceeds 3 Volt, and others are known to require at least 4 Volt, making it impossible to design a Word Clock driver guaranteed to operate with all receivers. Studio Konnekt 48 sends 1.7V PP.

4S/PDIF In/Out

Two channel, 24 bit 96 kHz digital in/out on S/PDIF. In addition to standard I/O it is possible to insert e.g. an external digital effects unit and use this as a send effect. (see setup examples)

5ADAT/Toslink I/O connectors

The optical connections carry either Toslink (optical S/PDIF) or ADAT signal.

ADAT:

-At normal sample rate, 8 channels of ADAT is carried on a single lightpipe. Use the MAIN connector.

-At double sample rate, 8 channels of ADAT is distributed on 2 lightpipe connectors. Use both the MAIN and the 96 kHz connections.

Toslink:

-Studio Konnekt 48 handles up to 4 input channels and 4 output channels of optical S/PDIF via Toslink.

6MIDI In/Out

Standard MIDI in/out. When Studio Konnekt 48 is used in stand-alone mode, MIDI out always acts as MIDI thru.

7Main Outputs

Digitally controlled true analog main outputs on balanced XLR.

Pin 1 Ground Pin 2 Hot Pin 3 Cold

8In/Out - additional channels

Input and outputs for channels 5 to 12 on balanced 1/4” jacks. The sensitivity for the line inputs can be set to -10 dBv or +4 dBu via the TC Near mixer page.
