Advanced Digital Setup
This diagram illustrates a typical system using the 4-710d as the front end of a more complicated
digital recording setup. A variety of input sources are used, with the 4-710d performing A/D conversion
on the inputs while slaved to an external word clock. In this setup, the converted input signals are sent
to the computer digitally via the AES/EBU output, and the software monitoring features of the DAW are
used to monitor the 4-710d inputs.
(See the “Digital Clocking Primer” on page 23 for detailed info about synchronization)
The inputs and inserts are connected as in the previous example. The AES/EBU output from the 4-710d
is connected to the AES/EBU DB-25 input of the computer’s audio interface, and the word clock output
is connected from the audio interface to the 4-710d word clock input. The software monitoring features
of the DAW are used to monitor the 4-710d inputs.
Key points for this example:
• Mic/Line switch for channels 1 and 2 are set to “Mic”
• Insert switch for channel 3 is set to “In”
• AES/EBU output is connected to computer audio interface
• Word clock out from audio interface is connected to 4-710d word clock input
• Sample Rate knob is set to “W/C” (external clock synchronization is used)
• Computer DAW is used for software monitoring
