Digital Outputs
The Deva comes with an AES digital output cable. This cable connects to the left side of the Deva using
DB-15 connector. There are eight digital outputs available using this connector.
The AES cable fans out to four separate XLR style outputs. Each output is a stereo pair (Output 1,2;
Output 3, 4; Output 5,6; Output 7,8). You can use any combination of these outputs with your Deva. The
output channel number is written on each cable. You can assign these outputs to any channel or
combinations of channels.
Camera Connector
The Camera Output connector is located on the right side of the Deva. It is a 10-pin Hirose connector.
Only output channels 5 and 6 can be used through this connector. These channels are summed into a mono
feed.
Hint: Because the audio output of this connector is summed, you cannot use this output to feed audio and time-
code to a camera using separate channels. To do this, use the analog output for the timecode channel.
Break out cables are available from retailers, and pinout diagrams for the connector are available in this
manual if you want to make your own cable.
A return input from the camera headphone output is available using the camera connector. When used, the
audio from the camera can be monitored using the Deva.
Assigning Inputs and Outputs to Tracks
The flexibility of the Deva is highlighted in the way it handles the routing. Routing on the Deva allows you
to assign any combination of inputs to any combination of channels and outputs. This section describes
how to assign both inputs and outputs.
Assigning Inputs to the Recording Tracks
Input Options: Analog Input, Digital Input, Pre-fader, Post-fader, Phase Inverted
A single digital or analog input can be assigned to any number of recording tracks, including sharing the
same recording channel, using the Disk Channel Mix matrix.
