Input/Output Characteristics

DME24N ANALOG INPUT CHARACTERISTICS

• 0dBu = 0.775 Vrms
• All AD converters (CH1-8) are 24-bit linear, 128 times oversampling.
• +48V DC (phantom power) is supplied to CH INPUT (1-8) connectors via each individual
controlled switch.

DME64N ANALOG OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS

• 0dBu = 0.775 Vrms
• Stereo Phone Jack = unbalanced (Tip = LEFT, Ring = RIGHT, Sleeve = GND)

Total Harmonic Distortion fs = 48kHz
Total Harmonic Distortion fs=96kHz
Hum & Noise EIN = Equivalent Input Noise
• Hum & Noise are measured with a 6dB/octave filter @12.7kHz; equivalent to a 20kHz filter
with infinite dB/octave attenuation.
Dynamic Range
• Dynamic range are measured with a 6dB/octave filter @12.7kHz; equivalent to a 20kHz filter
with infinite dB/octave attenuation.
