Module options – Digital audio networking cards
M-ACE ACE is the Allen & Heath 64 channel bi-directional audio
and control point-to-point link (does not provide audio networking).
The BRIDGE port enables an external control Network connection to
be tunnelled over the same CAT5 cable as the audio. The second
ACE port can provide a redundant backup using a second cable.
The iDR-32 and iDR-48 always uses ACE as the Surface to MixRack
(Port A) link. Fitting ACE to Port B can provided 64 channel signal
splitting between MixRacks. This module can also be fitted to the
iLive and iDR10 Port A as a single cable point-to-point alternative to
the separate Network and ES cables currently used. To connect to T
Series components ACE should be fitted to the iLive.
The Surface to MixRack audio link must always be fitted to Port A.
Do not Connect Port A to Port B or vice versa.
M-ES-V2
EtherSound. This uses the more recent and smaller
AVDM circuit card to provide a 64 channel bi-directional audio
network compatible with equipment fitted with EtherSound (including
the earlier iLive RAB version). It can be used in the RAB2 module
on iLive and iDR10, or to equip the iDR-32 and iDR-48 with
EtherSound digital audio networking.
M-ES-V1-BASE
EtherSound. This provides a cost effective
upgrade to RAB2 for iLive users who already have older RAB
modules with ES cards fitted in existing iLive systems. The older
AVD ES card may be fitted to this carrier to make it useable in RAB2
or the iDR-32 and iDR-48.
M-MMO
Mini Multi Out provides several popular multi-
channel digital output formats in a single module. Typical
application is for recording, connection to personal monitoring
systems, and routing to a speaker processor.
ADAT – Three 8-channel optical outputs allow up to 24 track
recording.
Aviom – 16 channel personal monitoring
iDR expander – Connect up to two iDR 8 channel output expanders
(iDR-out analogue or iDR-Dout digital AES, Spdif, Toslink). Can
provide a digital link into the iDR-8 or iDR-4 digital audio processor.
This output is also compatible with the Hearbus 8 channel personal
monitoring interface.
Firmware version 1.7 provides full MMO functionality in the MixRack
Port B slot and limited capability fitted to RAB2 Port B in the iLive
surface.
M-MADI
MADI. Dual port 64 channel bi-directional MADI audio
interface. It is usual for this to be used for system expansion or
recording from the MixRack Port B, but it could be used in the iLive
Port A for the Surface link so providing additional channels at the
Surface for recording via MADI.

These are ‘mini’ module options available to interface with popular
multi-channel digital audio and networking standards. They may be
fitted to:
iDR10 and iDR0 RAB2 module Port A and Port B.
iDR-64, iDR-48, iDR-32 and iDR-16 Port B
iLive-80, 112, 144, 176 RAB2 Port A, only MMO in Port B.
They may not be fitted to the R72, T80 or T112 Surfaces.
