03D with Fostex D-90

This application shows how the 03D can be used with a Fostex D-90 hard disk recorder to
create an 18-input, 8-track digital recording system. The 8 digital tape returns and 18
Mic/Line inputs provide up to 26 inputs at mixdown. In addition, the 03D’s built-in
automix and scene memory systems provide both dynamic and static mix automation
referenced to MIDI timecode.

The Fostex D-90 is an 8-track hard disk recorder featuring ADAT I/O as standard.

Connections

The ADAT (CD8-AT) card must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the screws out
after installation as the card will not be grounded correctly.

YGDAI digital outputs can be configured as bus outs, aux sends, input channel direct
outs, or stereo outs. So although the 03D is a four-bus mixer, assigning the four buses
and four aux sends, or the channel direct outs, to the YGDAI outputs allows eight-track
simultaneous recording. YGDAI output assignments are made on the D.out Setup page,
which can be located using the [DIO] button.

YGDAI digital inputs feed 03D input channels 17 through 24.

The Digital In/Out connectors on the 03D and D-90 are connected together using
Optical Cables.

03D Wordclock Setup

The 03D works as wordclock master, and can be set to either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz on the D.in
Setup page, which is accessed using the [DIO] button.

D-90 Wordclock Setup

The D-90 should be configured as a wordclock slave, with the ADAT interface as the clock
source.
