6 - Hookup-Synchronization and control connections ADAT connections Use two TOSLINK-type fiber cables to connect the ADAT device (ADAT IN to OUT on the remote device) and ADAT OUT to IN on the remote device). If the ADAT is to be controlled from the DM-24, a third-party device to convert MMC to ADAT sync commands will be necessary. Examples of such devices are the JL Cooper dataSYNC2, or the MOTU MTP AV. These convert the ABS code from the ADAT to MTC, allowing synchronization for automation purposes. Digital inputs and outputs The two sets of digital inputs and two sets of digital outputs each comprise an XLR-type connector and an RCA pin jack. Typically, the XLR-type connector will be used for AES/EBU digital audio, while the RCA is used for SPDIF. These inputs can be assigned to any of the channel modules (1 through 32). They can therefore be used as returns from digital effects units, etc. as well as source inputs from CD players, DAT decks, etc. The DM-24 incorporates a sampling frequency converter, allowing input from sources with a sampling frequency different from that of the DM-24. The DM-24 can output audio data from both the XLR and the RCA connectors of each digital output at the same time. Each of these output pairs can be used as the stereo mastering outputs, as paired buss outputs, as paired aux sends, or as the feed to the control room monitoring system. The sampling frequency of the digital audio from these outputs is always the system sampling frequency of the DM-24.
