Overview
This is the DiGiCo AES/EBU Input/Output Card with bi directional sample rate conversion. One card gives you 4 stereo AES inputs and 4 stereo AES outputs, 8 channels each way, so a single slot can feed a digital amp rack or processor and take returns from it.
SRC is switchable per input and per output.
Highlights
- 4 stereo AES in and 4 stereo AES out (8 x 8 channels)
- Bi directional sample rate conversion
- 110 ohm transformer balanced
- Hot pluggable
- Also compatible with 4REA4
Compatibility
Works with: DiGiCo SD-Rack (14 slots, 10RU), SD-MiNi Rack (4 slots, 4RU) and SD-Nano Rack (2 slots, 2RU), in both MADI and Optocore (HMA, opticalCON, ST) frames. The rack then connects to SD12, S21, S31, Quantum 225, Quantum 326 and Quantum 338 consoles over MADI (console BNC ports or a DMI-MADI-B card) or over an Optocore loop.
In an SD-Rack this card goes in one of the seven input slots (input and I/O cards share the input side). In an SD-MiNi or SD-Nano it can go in any slot.

Forefront Tip
A good choice for feeding AES inputs on amplifiers or speaker processors at the stage end. If you only need outputs, the AES Output card (MODSDRAESO) can sit in an output slot and keep your input slots free.
