Figure 7 – Converting dual AES 24/96 to a single wire double speed one
The dCS 974 converts a 96 kS/s 24 bit Dual AES input to a double speed
96 kS/s 24 bit signal available from any or all of the 4 AES, 2 electrical SPDIF,
optical SPDIF or SDIF-2 outputs. When using the Format Conversion menu,
the operation is bit for bit on the audio data (messages can be edited).
do this: Connect Nagra-D, Genex G-8000, SADIE, Lake DSP, etc dual AES source to
inputs AES 1 and AES 2 on the dCS 974.
do this: Load the setup from Store J and set Pure Format Conversion to On, or use
settings below.
do this: Output from any AES output or any of the SPDIF outputs or, using two data
cables and one clock, via the SDIF-2 outputs. The outputs will all be at “double”
speed.
