Euphonix System 5 InDepth - Manual (Page 32)

System 5 Digital Audio Mixing System - InDepth 3
Internally, System 5 uses MADI to route and patch digital audio.
MADI is a very stable and robust AES sanctioned format that
allows up to 64 channels of digital audio (at 24-bit, 48kHz) along
a single coax cable.
To interface to analog and other digital formats such as AES/
EBU, Euphonix provides a full range of high quality converters in
multi-channel, 19” rack mounting cases.
All signals such as Aux sends, mix minus/group outputs, mix
outputs, channel inputs, inserts and dynamic key inputs are
MADI and require the Euphonix converters for analog or AES/
EBU connection. Commercial MADI converters are also avail-
able including PCI cards for connecting MADI into and out of
PCs.
Because the system is modular, it is easy to start working with
the System 5 in an analog environment and then add digital
converters in future as more of the facility’s sources move to
digital.
Interfaces to the Analog & Digital Worlds
AM713 Analog to MADI Converter
26 balanced analog on XLR plus an AES or S/PDIF pair to MADI.
MA703 MADI to Analog Converter
MADI to 26 balanced analog on XLR plus an AES or S/PDIF pair.
DM714 AES/EBU to MADI Converter
