INTEGRATING ADAT MACHINE
S
NOTE:
EXT. SYNC must be switched ON for external machine control.
If EXT SYNC is not enabled, the DPS24 will not control the connected ADAT machines.
With the IB-24ADT option board installed, the extra ADAT channels ADAT 9-24 become
available in addition to ADAT1-8.
ADAT inputs 9-24 are available as sources for Input Channels, Disk Record Sources and FX
Return Sources, both in the PATCH / SOURCE page and in the MIXER / CHANNEL pages.
Any of the 24 ADAT sources may also be routed directly to the STEREO OUTPUTS, the AUX
OUTPUTS and the DIGITAL OUTPUTS in the PATCH / OUTPUTS page.
In the ADAT OUTPUT ASSIGN section of the PATCH / OUTPUTS page, you can now patch
internal audio sources to any of the 24 ADAT outputs:
The available audio sources are:
With such routing flexibility, it is possible to use the PATCH pages as a digital audio patchbay
between the DPS24 and your ADAT machine(s).
Also, if you need to get any of the ADAT sources to an analogue machine, don't forget that they
can be assigned to the various analogue outputs on the DPS24 (the AUX OUTPUTs, for example).
Furthermore, if the ADAT SYNC OUT of the IB-24ADT is connected to the ADAT SYNC IN of an
ADAT machine, the DPS24 automatically sends a DIGITAL INPUT : ON command to the ADAT
so that all routing to the ADAT(s) can be done digitally. To get analogue signals to the ADAT(s),
simply assign the DPS24's input channels and/or its ADCs to the various ADAT outputs.
