This example illustrates Digital Konnekt x32 used in
conjunction with a ProTools setup integrating external
digital devices. The screenshot in this example is based
on ProTools HD but applies to any version of Pro Tools
hardware that has digital in (AES/EBU, SPDIF, ADAT,
TOS or Word Clock).

Connections:

A DVD player is connected to TOS 5/6

Finalizer 96K is connected via SPDIF coax 3/4

Reverb 4000 is connected via SPDIF coax 5/6 on
Digital Konnekt x32

AES 7/8 out is connected to active monitors

AES 1/2 in/out is connected to ProTools

Objects:
-

Reverb 4000 is an excellent reverb and we will use
this as a send effect in ProTools.

-

Finalizer 96k is a top quality multiband compressor
for mastering and we want to use this as an insert
effect on a master output bus.

-

We want to be able to route stereo audio from the
DVD player via TOS to ProTools or directly to the
active monitors

As we have five external digital devices and only four
channel pairs (not counting ADAT) we have put the DVD
player on the same channel pair as the Reverb 4000. In
the AES/SPDIF/TOS input select section you will then
have to decide which device that should be routed for the
current application. - It is likely that you don’t need to
listen to the DVD player and route the Reverb 4000 at
the same time.
