ADAT Optical cables must be connected from the ADAT Out ports of the Sonorus StudI/O card to the ADAT In ports of the 328XD and vice versa. [. . . ] Using the PARAM encoder set the Bank Source to ADAT. Press the Down cursor key to set the wordlength. The Sonorus StudI/O is capable of 24-bit recording, and so for optimum results, 24-bit wordlength can be selected here. If your audio sequencer software does not allow 24-bit recording, 20-bit or 16-bit should be selected. The sequencer manuals should be consulted for further information. The wordlength is set on the 328XD with the PARAM encoder. Press <ENTER> to set the wordlength and <MENU> to return to the menu pages. 3 Soundcraft 328XD and Sonorus StudI/O STUDI/O CONFIGURATION Wordclock The Sonorus StudI/O must now be set up to receive the wordclock transmitted by the 328XD. Open the Audio System Setup window Panel from within your chosen sequencer, Cubase VST 4. 1 on the Macintosh is used in this example. Click on the drop down menu and select Optical A as the "Audio Clock Source" , the sample rate will change to follow the internal frequency of the 328XD. If the Sonorus Syncplate is not fitted, the Sonorus StudI/O must slave to the wordclock from one of its ADAT inputs. Set the StudI/O to use the clock source from the ADAT input as required using the method described above. If the Sonrous Syncplate is fitted, the StudI/O should slave to the clock on the BNC wordclock input. [. . . ] Here you can adjust the bit rate of the data passing to and from the 328XD. For the highest quality results, select 24-bit, as the 328XD is capable of transmitting and receiving all 24 bit signals. Please refer to the Sonorus StudI/O documentation for other system settings. 5 Soundcraft 328XD and Sonorus StudI/O SOUNDCRAFT HARMAN INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRIES LTD CRANBORNE HOUSE CRANBORNE ROAD POTTERS BAR HERTS EN6 3JN UK TEL: +44 (0) 1707 665000 FAX: +44 (0) 1707 660742 EMAIL: info@soundcraft. com SOUNDCRAFT USA 1449 DONELSON PIKE NASHVILLE TN 37217 USA TEL: 1-615-360-0471 FAX: 1-615-360-0273 EMAIL: soundcraft-usa@harman. com www. soundcraft. com 6 Soundcraft 328XD and Sonrous StudI/O [. . . ]
