In this example we show how to use the Digital Konnekt
x32 as a conventional audio interface with four different
external digital sources are connected. For monitoring we
have connected a couple of active monitors equipped
with AES/EBU input.

Connections

A keyboard or another digital instrument with SPDIF
out is connected to SPDIF 1/2 inputs on Digital
Konnekt x32 using a coax cable.

A CD player with Toslink output is connected to TOS
3/4 inputs on Digital Konnekt x32 using a lightpipe
cable.

Two preamps with SPDIF outputs are connected to
the SPDIF inputs 5/6 and 7/8 on Digital Konnekt x32
using coax cable.

Digital Konnekt x32 is connected to the computer via

firewire.

The master Air monitor is fed from Digital Konnekt
x32’s AES 1/2 outputs. The Air slave monitor is
connected to the Air master monitor via a standard
CAT-5 cable.
